  • How do I unpin a web search from my Windows 7 Starter Start Menu?

    If I type in a website address beginning with "http://"/ in my search bar, and pin it to my start menu. It only has "Open" and "Remove from this list" options. The remove option doesn't work. Neither does setting the Start Menu properties to not store items, or setting the list length to zero. I'm not infected with spyware, nor do I have a virus. Does anyone know where this list is stored so I can remove items from it manually?

  • How do I change integer string to hex in php?

    I'm a beginner at php so please forgive me if this seems like a noobish question. I've been reading tutorials and the php manual but I can figure this out.

    How do I take a variable with an integer string data and output it as the hex character?

    for example

    <?php

    $data = "65";

    $the_e = "\x".$data;

    echo $the_e;

    ?>

    outputs the string "\x65" when I want the character 'e'. Is there a simple way to do this I've been looking for a work-around but I need to have the hexcode from a variable or I'd need a switch statement that handles each byte.

    <?php

    $data = $_POST[variable];

    switch($data){

    case "00":

    echo "\x00";

    break;

    case "01":

    echo "\x01";

    break;

    ect...

    ?>

    I'd really rather not do that for obvious reasons. If anybody know how to do this or has a better work-around please let me know, thanks.

  • What is a simple php code to render a image from another site.?

    I need to make a Flash 8 application load an image from servers I don't have access to that have cross-domain file policies. I need the swf to think that the image comes from the same domain to use the BitmapData.draw() function with these images but there wasn't any wway to check for a cross-domain file policy until version 9. Is there a php code I could use so I could reference the php and get the image I wanted to load with a query string or POST variable i.e.

    proxyImage.php?http://image.youneed.com/picture.jpg

  • how do I send pictures from a computer to Motorola W376g Tracfone?

    The Bluetooth settings restrict any data transfer. And the USB port is used for charging only. There is no SD card slot of any kind. The only way I know of to get files is to download them using the web browser. But when ever I try to upload files to the internet and download them on to the phone I get an error 403 forbidden on the phone. How do you download pictures or music on to this Tracfone?

  • My laptop stopped detecting it's built in CD drive spontaneously. How do I fix it?

    It's a recent purchase. I haven't even gotten my mail in rebate back yet but I live 300 miles away from where I bought it. It was a two day sale. I was very careful with it and the drive is operational, all the drivers are up to date. It worked until it stopped detecting my drive. I had used it the day before. It opens normally before Windows boots up, and if it was open when Windows starts it will open and close normally, except for when a program tries to eject a disc. If it is closed when Windows opens it will not open normally until it is restarted. It does not display a cd drive when I open My Computer I have tried System Restore multiple times. It seemed to work the first time only, and only until I shut down my laptop. I have tried detecting new hardware, none is detected. The system did not come with a software disc. Nor would a disc of any kind install anything if my drive is not detected. The drive is not removable. This is my only disc drive on my laptop. Please Help!!
