| 01:06.22 | elg | I want the image to fill the window (ideally resizing, but whatever) |

| 01:10.48 | elg | i need to style html not body |

| 03:32.43 | fozzmoo | bonez41: What's up? |
| 03:32.58 | bonez41 | I visit a site..and it has several drop down menus...a few inches down, across the page...there is also a flash screen that alternates among 4 different panels...just below the drop down menus...the menu items...are COVERED up by the flash panel...though, menu items at either side are visible, but not under the panel.. |
| 03:33.06 | bonez41 | wondering what might make this happen... |
| 03:33.16 | fozzmoo | bonez41: I've seen that too. |
| 03:33.28 | fozzmoo | I'm pretty sure it's the flash plugin's fault. |
| 03:33.56 | bonez41 | I wrote an email to the site's webmaster who informed me...."If the flash presentation in the middle of the main page of MyNikken.com |
| 03:33.56 | bonez41 | <PROTECTED> |
| 03:33.56 | bonez41 | <PROTECTED> |
| 03:34.14 | fozzmoo | That's a terrible generalization. |
| 03:34.16 | bonez41 | that's tech supports, or webmaster's response..which I find LAZY and unexciting.. |
| 03:34.21 | fozzmoo | Yeah. |
| 03:34.33 | bonez41 | ok...just wanted to make sure I wasn't the crazy one |
| 03:34.44 | fozzmoo | You might be... but you're not the only one. :) |
| 03:35.58 | bonez41 | so, I should fire back and say..no it's a flash plugin issue...they make no mention anywhere that their site is BEST VIEWED only with IE, or any specific browser....I tried it at work on my xp machine, and with both firefox and IE on that machine, the same problem persists |
| 03:36.22 | fozzmoo | Oh wow. I assumed it was a Linux issue. |
| 03:36.55 | fozzmoo | Perhaps you should ask for advice on exactly which settings you should be looking into changing. :) |
| 03:37.18 | bonez41 | well, I get all this when viewinng that page...using firefox.....but also using IE... |
| 03:37.25 | bonez41 | ok....I'll do that |
| 03:39.39 | fozzmoo | good luck |

| 17:57.50 | ^Migs^ | tv.com rates it as one of the most popular television viewing events |
| 17:58.43 | thaddeusq | fozzmoo obviously doesn't have teenage daughters |
| 17:59.54 | ^Migs^ | I watched both High School Musical 1 and 2 the other day. Not bad, but not sure why it's making national headlines |
| 18:00.39 | ^Migs^ | Friday’s premiere drew an estimated audience of 17.2 million, which would make it the most-watched basic cable program ever, according to Nielsen Media Research. It more than doubled the viewership of the first movie, “High School Musical,” which drew 7.7 million in 2006. |
| 18:00.41 | ^Migs^ | http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20360800/ |
| 18:00.51 | ^Migs^ | The basic cable record had been held by a “Monday Night Football” game on ESPN in 2006, which was watched by 16 million. |
| 18:02.07 | fozzmoo | thaddeusq: I have a 9 year old daughter who complained daily for a couple of months when Disney was cancelled. |
| 18:02.51 | ^Migs^ | why would you cancel Disney? |
| 18:03.04 | fozzmoo | Well, wanted to save money, for one thing... |
| 18:03.19 | fozzmoo | Dish Network has a "Dish Family" package that's only $20/mo |
| 18:03.21 | ^Migs^ | oh, so you canceled your whole cable? |
| 18:03.30 | ^Migs^ | lol @ Dish Network |
| 18:03.34 | ^Migs^ | Directv is SOOOOOO much better |
| 18:03.44 | fozzmoo | ^Migs^: They go back and forth. |
| 18:03.49 | fozzmoo | I've had Dish since 1997 |
| 18:04.09 | ^Migs^ | My sympathies |
| 18:04.55 | fozzmoo | But anyway- so, Dish has this $20/mo package that has a nice selection of channels oriented at family programming. We slapped locals on top and now we're paying abotu $40 less per month. |
| 18:05.06 | fozzmoo | But, no Disney, which I consider a bonus. |
| 18:05.18 | ^Migs^ | do you hate your children or something? |
| 18:05.20 | fozzmoo | My kids were always watching those crap sitcoms on there. |
| 18:05.45 | ^Migs^ | the Disney sitcoms are excellent for kids. Wholesome, quality programming, aimed at youngins. |
| 18:06.29 | ^Migs^ | the way I see it, half of child-raising comes from parents, the other half from TV, so you want to make sure you have decent television shows helping raise your kids. |
| 18:06.41 | fozzmoo | Yeah, full of sexual tension and L.A. depictions of how people are supposed to look. |
| 18:06.56 | fozzmoo | and act. |
| 18:07.08 | fozzmoo | I mean, Hanna Montana?! Hello?! |
| 18:07.11 | ^Migs^ | L.A. is the foremost authority on how people SHOULD look AND act, thankyouvermuch |
| 18:07.31 | ^Migs^ | What's wrong with Hanna [sic] Montana? |
| 18:07.32 | fozzmoo | heh. |
| 18:08.12 | fozzmoo | So, now they've got two channels of Nick, Nickelodeon Games and Sports... which is a weird channel. |
| 18:08.18 | ^Migs^ | and kids at that young age experience tons of sexual tension, and it helps them to know that other kids feel the same things, are going through the same frustrating experiences, are dealing with raging hormones, and that there are shows that help them laugh about it |
| 18:08.22 | fozzmoo | Discovery Kids (which is way cool) |
| 18:08.31 | ^Migs^ | what is Nickelodeon Games and Sports? |
| 18:08.33 | fozzmoo | And Boomerang from Cartoon Network. |
| 18:08.37 | ^Migs^ | what about Sprout? |
| 18:08.56 | fozzmoo | Nick GAS is where they play re-runs of all those NIck game shows from the 90s. |
| 18:09.00 | ^Migs^ | oh lol |
| 18:09.01 | ^Migs^ | hahahaha |
| 18:09.02 | fozzmoo | Legend of Zelda and crap like that. |
| 18:09.07 | fozzmoo | My kids love it. |
| 18:09.09 | ^Migs^ | there was a Legend of Zelda game show? |
| 18:09.17 | fozzmoo | Uh. NO. |

Daad Mohammed Murad Abdul Rahman, 60, has already had 15 brides although he has to divorce them as he goes along to remain within the legal limit of four wives at a time. |
