Subject: Display custom icons instead of values in list views
Under the Classic interface the icons are working fine as described in the documentation. However, if I switch to Unified Interface they are not displayed anymore.
Inspecting the page (visually and in the generated html) it looks that the space is indeed reserved for the image as DIV. So I suspect the code behind the page is not able to find/retrieve the images when in Unified Interface even if I supply the full URL of the picture.
Did anybody else encountered similar problems when moving from Classic to UI interface?
We are in an on-premise installation.
What type is your image? Is it PNG, JPEG, or GIF.
In new UI it should only be PNG and that too of size 16*16.

Although the author of Draft-js said that he "didn't want to release any conversion utilities" (https://github.com/facebook/draft-js/issues/62),
I still want to ask that after saving raw object into database, how can we conveniently retrieve and display the raw object in our react component?
And how can we customized the display effect, to be different with effect of displaying it using Draft-js Editor component with the readOnly prop? Because we often want to customize the display effect, for the display effect is always different with the effect when we were editing in the editor.
We will be facing this issue shortly. It's been our plan to simply provide a different blockRendererFn and possibly a different blockStyleFn to the Editor when rendering on front of the site (in readOnly=true mode). That way the bits of UI needed for authoring the custom content blocks will not exist.
Here's the issue, I build a special book reader/browser (For holy quran), my code behind loads the page and constructs how it should look. and then it should bind that look to a some kind of data-bindable custom control to view it properly. the problem is, the look differs from page to page, so I cannot bind to a certain control or wrap panel.
here's how it generally looks:
The decorative border top of the page is always there at any page, it indicates the part and chapter the viewer is in.
If you're starting a new chapter it have additional image under that decorative border or anywhere in the page (there can be multiple chapters in the same page) something like this
or this:
The normal text is not an issue, it's just a special font, however, I put each individual word in its own text block for reasons of user selection by word.
The issue here is, given the previous information, and knowing how random it is to place the decoration picture or the amount of words (text blocks) per page. how can I bind that to some kind of view to separate the view from the VM and Engine that builds the page.
my past solution was to actually build everything in the VM in a wrappanel built inside a scrollviewer having lots of textblocks and images according to the page. but that's naiive solution. I want to rebuild that in a more professional separated way. I also want to do this for Windows RT beside Windows phone so I need to reuse the code behind in a Portable class library.
I think all you need to do is slightly adjust your current design. So perhaps have a VM that represents the entire content, and that would have a Collection of say Pages or Sections. A second VM would represent the Page/Section, allowing you to create a property for the WrapPanel content (i.e. the words) and another property for the Header and or other things.
In the View you would have the scrollviewer and bind to the main VM collection. Then create another View or DataTemplate that represents the Page/Section.
You should be able to do this is a strict MVVM sense quite easily and it will be dynamic based on the content.
You could even cater for advanced scenarios where each section has a different template/view.
I have a task where I need to segment a web page visually so that I may be able to calculate the distance between two segments of the web page at various levels of the DOM tree. In the simple way I want to be able to obtain the boxes that enclose the display of the pages on the screen. e.g. consider this image: Image to visual of DOM structure as on display
This I drew using Chrome, which provides for each DOM node the corresponding rectangle on the display of the page in the browser. How can I get these boxes in my program so that I can process the page based upon how it looks on the screen.
I was able to do so by using QtWebkeit. It provides for each level of DOM tree the geometry() method and also access to the CSS properties.
When a <select> tag is used in a HTML page, is there a way to style the text size in
the scroll wheel that shows on the iPhone?
There is this alternative.
http://cubiq.org/spinning-wheel-on-webkit-for-iphone-ipod-touch
It uses javascript to put the elements on the page.. I used it for a web/ iphone app and it worked really well. There would be custom styling if you wanted to change the default text sizes and you could also load in custom images..
I don't believe you can style the wheel that shows up on the iPhone directly. In fact, even modifying it in browsers has weird support. For example, http://jsbin.com/obake3 doesn't work at all in Chrome, only modifies the actual drop down in Safari and stretches the graphic in a very ugly way in Firefox.
We investigated and couldn't find any reliable way of altering the display so we looked into different libraries. We're having good luck with the Mobiscroll library for jQuery. It is a more up to date project than the cubiq project referred to in other responses.
The control is themable. You can easily change the appearance of if in CSS. It also comes with pre-defined, nice looking color schemes.
We chose it because it works across devices allowing for a more consistent look & feel.
Taken from Sitepoint Ref
The select renders slightly differently depending on the browser and operating system in use, and is well known as a troublesome HTML element to style with CSS (because the display is inherited from the operating system, rather than provided by the browser)
IE9 has the concept of pinning a particular website to the Windows7 task bar. For certain sites (such as Facebook), it will then display an extra large favicon in the task bar, and also next to the back button.
How do I tell IE to do this for my site?
It's a bit late, but I found the answer above to be somewhat incomplete.
ico files can contain multiple images at the same time. So you can for example put a 16x16, a 24x24, and a 32x32 image inside a single ico file. This way IE can use the image with the most appropriate size. So it will use 16x16 inside the addressbar, the 32x32 for the taskbar (pin), and the 24x24 for next to the back button. If you want them to look better on hi-dpi screens you could use 64x64 instead of 32x32, and 48x48 in stead of 24x24.
You could even use different kinds of images instead of the same image in differently scales; so e.g. just the logo on the 16x16 and 24x24, but the logo and brandname on the 32x32.
One tool for creating such icons is the commandline application png2ico, or icoFx if you like a GUI.
Please read the following article
How to enable IE9 pinning and Jumplists
Create a High Definition Favicon
Standard favicon files are usually 32x32 or 16x16 pixels in size. These look great in the browser but when you pin it to the taskbar it can be a little small and pixilated.
To give the best pinning experience you should use a 64x64 favicon. I used http://www.favicon.co.uk/ to create a 64 x 64 icon file and then uploaded it to my site.
You then need to make sure you are using the new favicon by checking the tag is pointing at the new 64x64 fav.ico file.
Basically you now can create a larger favicon file, and IE9 will use it in the task bar. However, if you have a standard size favicon, IE9 will still use it.
An added benefit is that you can implement an awesome JumpList to enhance the visitors browsing experience.
