2 AnswersEngineering9 years agoWhy does this code produce varied results?
I made a Java program to make randomly generated passwords, using numbers (0-9), capital letters (A-Z) and lowercase letters (a-z). Using the "length" variable, I can set the length of the String being output (supposedly). For some reason this does not work.
My code can be seen here:
Could anyone please provide a suggestion for why this doesn't work?
Thank you.

2 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoHelp with HTML links please?
I have this link:
<a href="reply.cfm" target="_blank"
onClick="window.open('reply.cfm?
sentfrom=#sentfrom#
','mywindow','width=500,height=500,
resizable=no,
scrollbars=no,toolbar=no
,location=no,directories=no,status=no,
menubar=no')">Reply</a>
I've split the links into bits as the text box hides most of it.
But it opens two links, one with all the properties I want (such as directories=no, etc) and the other one just opens reply.cfm without all the properties. How do I stop the reply.cfm without the properties from opening along with the other one?
