Help Needed For Simple Problem Rob Carey13-Jul-01 12:54 Rob Carey 13-Jul-01 12:54  I'm trying to get the background color of the search box on my guestbook to become transparent, or to match the .jpg background I'm using for the entire page. Is there a color code # I can use to achieve transparency for the background color of this search box so it will match the rest of my page? Thanks in advance. Re: Help Needed For Simple Problem 14-Jul-01 20:52 14-Jul-01 20:52  No Re: Help Needed For Simple Problem Nikhil Dabas15-Jul-01 8:09 Nikhil Dabas 15-Jul-01 8:09  If you can use an IE-specific solution, create a DIV and set it's contenteditable attribute to true - that'll make it work like a textbox. It's background is transparent by default, so you don't have to do anything more. You shall have to get what the user entered from its innerText property. see the sample below... If you have IE 5.5 or better, you can edit this text.

This should support IE versions from 4.x to 5.5 and windows 9.x,NT,Me,XP. Is there any win 32 API or ready made code example for this Plz..... i need it very urgently... Thanx in advance archana archana kirane Sr. Software Engineer Re: deleting IE history folder contents 14-Jul-01 20:54 14-Jul-01 20:54  How much is the code worth to you? Re: deleting IE history folder contents Shaun Kaasten14-Jul-01 21:24 Shaun Kaasten 14-Jul-01 21:24  Check out the IUrlHistoryStg2 Interface Re: deleting IE history folder contents 15-Jul-01 7:23 15-Jul-01 7:23  Does not meet the requirments. IUrlHistoryStg only works for IE 5.5 or above and WinMe & Win2K or above. Re: deleting IE history folder contents Shaun Kaasten15-Jul-01 8:28 Shaun Kaasten 15-Jul-01 8:28  I think MSDN's documentation is incorrect there. Those interfaces have been included since visual studio 6. I've been able to use them on Win95 and IE 4.0 (I think). Re: deleting IE history folder contents archana15-Jul-01 19:07 archana 15-Jul-01 19:07  Is it so? as i tried with the IUrlHistoryStg2 with WinNT4.0 and IE 5.5 but it not working . Below is the code i tried. IUrlHistoryStg2 * pHistory; HRESULT hRes; CoInitialize(NULL); hRes = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_CUrlHistory, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, IID_IUrlHistoryStg2, (LPVOID *)&pHistory); if (SUCCEEDED(hRes)) { pHistory->ClearHistory(); pHistory->Release(); } CoUninitialize(); return hRes; what could be the problem? thanx and rgds archana Re: deleting IE history folder contents Shaun Kaasten15-Jul-01 20:17 Shaun Kaasten 15-Jul-01 20:17  This code looks good to me. Is it the CoCreateInstance or the 'ClearHistory()' that fails? Re: deleting IE history folder contents archana15-Jul-01 23:35 archana 15-Jul-01 23:35  ammm one doubt is there... do "today" folder should also get cleared using this method???? As, in my case it's not getting cleared. And i need to clear it. Thnax in adv. archana Re: deleting IE history folder contents Shaun Kaasten16-Jul-01 10:34 Shaun Kaasten 16-Jul-01 10:34  I'm not sure why the 'today' folder wouldn't get cleared. I guess you could use IUrlHistoryStg to enumerate and delete the URLs that remain, but that seems like overkill. Re: deleting IE history folder contents archana16-Jul-01 19:40 archana 16-Jul-01 19:40  well, i think it was the problem as my browser instances were open. I will tackel that now. Could u tell me something .....changing the subject bit Now it's about deleting History files for Netscape 4.7 and 6.0 . My research told me that...NS 4.7 saves it's history in netscape.hst in user profiles but i didn't get any file of named netscape.hst in NS 6.0 instead i got history.dat but it is not containing URLs. So, do u know where actually NS 6.0 stores it's visited URLs . Is it cookies.txt? I doubt but...and even it stores it's entries in the address bar(drop down combobox) in different way or in different location i think...i didn't get that also....if u know details of NS 6.0 history files then plz do let me know... Thanx in advance archana Re: deleting IE history folder contents Shaun Kaasten17-Jul-01 20:44 Shaun Kaasten 17-Jul-01 20:44  I'm afraid I don't know how to access Netscape's history info.

Erik Yuzwa12-Jul-01 11:16 Erik Yuzwa 12-Jul-01 11:16  Hi, I'm in search of a sample of creating a MAPI preprocessor. I've taken a look at the one in the Platform SDK, but am a little confused as to what *basics* I need to have done.. The same preprocessor in the SDK is full of a lot of stuff which might probably be unneccessary for what I want to do.. thanks in advance, Erik I hit faked him with my win32 API .chm and the peabrain goes for it. I follow it up with a salvo of left's and right's sending him down hard. It's lunch time and he's getting a Champ Sandwhich Special. I said, How's that Mr. VB?!

Sandro Stella12-Jul-01 7:16 Sandro Stella 12-Jul-01 7:16  I'm developing a simple remote control app. To command the remote PC I use some simple API call: SetCursoPos(x,y) to set Cursor position. WindowFromPoint(x,y) to get the handle of the Window under the screen coordinates x,y. Then I send messages like WM_LBUTTONDOWn and WM_LBUTTONUp to command the window, this works, but I have a problem to open the menu bar of the remote winodw. I know that when the cusror is over the non client area of window I must send the message WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, and this is what I do, but it doesn't , works! When the cursor is over the window menu bar and I send WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, I expect that the Menu is opened, but it doesn't. Using SPY I knwo that this is the message that is sent to the window when you press the left mouse button over the nonclient area of the window ( the menu bar ). Any idea about what I must do to in this situation ? Re: Windows remote control ? Need help.. TomKat14-Mar-03 16:35 TomKat 14-Mar-03 16:35  you are kidding me ! check this out ! thank me later : i made a remote control programme about subseven fans said it`s way better ! mouse_event The mouse_event function synthesizes mouse motion and button clicks. Windows NT: This function has been superseded. Use SendInput instead. VOID mouse_event( DWORD dwFlags, // flags specifying various motion/click variants DWORD dx, // horizontal mouse position or position change DWORD dy, // vertical mouse position or position change DWORD dwData, // amount of wheel movement DWORD dwExtraInfo // 32 bits of application-defined information ); Parameters dwFlags A set of flag bits that specify various aspects of mouse motion and button clicking. The bits in this parameter can be any reasonable combination of the following values: Value Meaning MOUSEEVENTF_ABSOLUTE Specifies that the dx and dy parameters contain normalized absolute coordinates. If not set, those parameters contain relative data: the change in position since the last reported position. This flag can be set, or not set, regardless of what kind of mouse or mouse-like device, if any, is connected to the system. For further information about relative mouse motion, see the following Remarks section. MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE Specifies that movement occurred. MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN Specifies that the left button is down. MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP Specifies that the left button is up. MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTDOWN Specifies that the right button is down. MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTUP Specifies that the right button is up. MOUSEEVENTF_MIDDLEDOWN Specifies that the middle button is down. MOUSEEVENTF_MIDDLEUP Specifies that the middle button is up. MOUSEEVENTF_WHEEL Windows NT: Specifies that the wheel has been moved, if the mouse has a wheel. The amount of movement is given in dwData dx Specifies the mouse's absolute position along the x-axis or its amount of motion since the last mouse event was generated, depending on the setting of MOUSEEVENTF_ABSOLUTE. Absolute data is given as the mouse's actual x-coordinate; relative data is given as the number of mickeys moved. A mickey is the amount that a mouse has to move for it to report that it has moved. dy Specifies the mouse's absolute position along the y-axis or its amount of motion since the last mouse event was generated, depending on the setting of MOUSEEVENTF_ABSOLUTE. Absolute data is given as the mouse's actual y-coordinate; relative data is given as the number of mickeys moved. dwData If dwFlags is MOUSEEVENTF_WHEEL, then dwData specifies the amount of wheel movement. A positive value indicates that the wheel was rotated forward, away from the user; a negative value indicates that the wheel was rotated backward, toward the user. One wheel click is defined as WHEEL_DELTA, which is 120. If dwFlags is not MOUSEEVENTF_WHEEL, then dwData should be zero. dwExtraInfo Specifies an additional 32-bit value associated with the mouse event. An application calls GetMessageExtraInfo to obtain this extra information. I am the mighty keeper of the book on knowledge .

I have written all of the meat of the program so that it runs as a console app. I need help converting it into a windows app. ** The part I need help with is: - use a menu - choose a file option called "parse" - have that pop up a dialog box that allows you to browse for files and then choose multiple files. - then when you click ok, it parses all of the chosen files with the code I have already written. Please help!!! Thanks, pwkicker97@hotmail.com pwkicker97@hotmail.com student Johns Hopkins University Re: *** help *** simple Steve T13-Jul-01 11:23 Steve T 13-Jul-01 11:23  It will probably be easier for you to create a new project using MFC AppWizard and then cut-and-paste your file parsing functionality into that rather than trying to wrap your console app. in windows. Depending on what type of output is expected you could simplify life even further by using a "Dialog based" app. If you want some kind of report generated and visible on screen you should use a document/view app. If your output can be presented as few numerical or string values or a simple list of values then it would probably be simlper to use a dialog based app. Do you use Visual C++ 6.0?
