  • Help please with this short html code?

    I have this code running on android and it works:

    <a href="intent:[@Virtual1] - [@Virtual2] - [@Virtual3] - [@Virtual4] - [@Virtual5]

    #Intent;scheme=rawbt;package=ru.a402d.rawbtprinter;end;"><font size="+2">PRINT REQUEST SLIP </font></a><br />

    What is does, is prompt "PRINT REQUEST SLIP". When clicked, it sends the values of the @Virtual1 @Virtual2 etc to the app i have called RawBt, and RawBt prints the data.  Then it sits there. If you click it again it will do the same thing.

    Now below that, I have a link to leave the page and go back to a search page.

    The problem is, there is no way to tell the user they successfully clicked the link and the printer is across the room so they won't know. I want them to sucessfully click it ONE TIME then gives a message

    What I need, if when the link (or a link) is pressed, it executes the 

    intent:[@Virtual1] - [@Virtual2] - [@Virtual3] - [@Virtual4] - [@Virtual5]

    #Intent;scheme=rawbt;package=ru.a402d.rawbtprinter;end;

    part, then puts up a message saying "Thank you for your request", then waits 5 seconds, then goes to another url.   The other url is the one in the second link to leave the page and return to the main url.  This is on a kiosk used by bar customers.  Can someone show me the proper code to make all that happen?  I'd really appreciate it.  It's the last bit to finishing the kiosk.  Thanks so much

  • list of all keno combinations for 6 numbers?

    Keno is a game of a grid of numbers from 1 to 80. During a draw, 20 numbers are drawn. A player can pick anywhere between 6 and 15 numbers. If I am playing 6 numbers the odds are 7,752.8:1 of me hitting a 6/6. Can someone send me a list of all 6 number combinations from 1 to 80. Now I know you are gonna say that there are more than 7,752.8 combinations but remember that if I pick 7-14-15-30-55-70 it's the same as picking those same 6 in any other order so any of those 6 numbers together in any other order are essentially the same draw. I'm sure this can be done in excel I just don't know how. If you can manage the list of 7,752.8 combinations I'd appreciate it

  • 6 number combinations from 1 to 80 numbers?

    Can someone send me a list of all the possible combinations of 6 numbers from 1 to 80. like 1,2,3,4,5,6 - 1,2,3,4,5,7 - 1,2,3,4,5,8 to 1,2,3,4,5,80 then 2,3,4,5,6,7 - 2,3,4,5,6,8 to 2,3,4,5,6,80 etc, Here's the deal though. 2,3,4,5,6,7 and 7,6,5,4,3,2 are the same combination and I don't want repeated combinations. the list should be under 8000 combinations that way

  • Will a cinder block box 12 feet by 16 feet, 4 feet high collapse if filled with water?

    I have a small back yard and want a permanent pool in it. I can buy pool liners cheap so it won't leak but I am wondering if the weight of water filling a rectangular frame cinder block box 12 feet by 16 feet, 4 feet high would collapse it. Any contractors let me know. Basically the box would be made the same way one would make a cinder block wall.

  • Resizable Preview Window for my USB "Webcam"?

    I have a usb video cam "webcam" and aside from "MyScreenCam" which is choppy in Win 7, I am looking for something that I can see the camera output in in a window. I want to be able to resize the window to any size and have the video feed size with it. If I can get one without a lot of menu bars and stuff that would rock. I want to use my cam for karaoke to show the singers on a TV and need something I can make large but not necessarily "full screen"

  • Help buying more powerful Motherboard CPU combo at low price?

    I currently have an ASUS K8N-X motherboard which is 6 years old. It has all the features I need but lacks processing power for higher end multimedia presenting I wish to do. This board is driving 2 video cards three sound cards and a tv tuner card. It's 133 mhz. Whan I want is a PC (ATX) motherboard that will have at least 5 pci slots, 1 agp slot, will support 4 ide drives and 4 sata drives. I wand a dual core processor that is compatible with that. I'm a DJ and I like the multiple sound card because I can control separate sound cards on my dj mixing board with different sliders. It's hard to find 5pci slots or more now a days on board. Any ideas what I can get and how cheaply I can get it? Any hekp would be appreciated

  • Buying a motherboard need advice if you know motherboards?

    I am willing to spend $200.00. I need an ATX style board with at least 2 IDE, 2 SATA, 5 pci slots, 1 agp slot, 3 memory slots (maybe 2 gig ram). No on board video (on board sound ok not necessary). Dual core processor capable. I'd like to have 4 SATA (bios controlled) and 6 pci slots with 1 agp (7 clots total) but that's asking a lot right? It's for a multimedia machine. I am using an Asus K8N-E Deluxe now which has 1 agp, 5 pci, 2 sata (bios) and 4 raid. Want more oomph Any ideas?

  • Has Yahoo answers ever flagged your question because it was "against policy"?

    They do to me. It's stupid too. If they did then ask it again here because now it's an answer and I don't think they flag answers. Maybe someone will answer it

  • Is all one needs to collect on life insurance a death certificate?

    Because I was wondering, if I had a doctor or coroner in a room with me and had one of them stop my heart to make me legally dead, then they can fill out the death certificate. After that they can revive me and my wife can collect the insurance because I was in fact legally dead at the time the certificate was filled out. Does just because I didn't stay dead invalidate the claim?

  • Question about the new cigarette tax?

    When is this tax paid? Is it paid after the final sale to the consumer? Does the store selling them pay it? Is it paid by the manufacturer? I'm wondering because a pack of Newport where I live jumped in one day fro $4.95 to $5.50. If the retailer pays the tax, how can they add the new tax on their existing inventory, which was already taxed and paid for? I realize that to make it fair the retailer would have to completely sell out their entire inventory before charging the new price, which is unreasonable. I also know the government isn't "double dipping" because they can't tax items the retailers already paid tax on. That would make this a huge profit for the retailer because they benefit from being able to charge more tax on cigarettes in their inventory already and keep it. It just seems unfair that the consumer gets the short end of the stick.

  • Women: A question about your pinky toenails.?

    I get the impression that this happens because of "fashionable shoes". That little sliver of a pinky toenail... Why do you put nail polish on it? It really looks stupid when you do that. I mean, I can see doing it if it were an actual toenail, but when your pinky toenail is just a tiny sliver, why? I think men would rather see you with 5 full toenails, than see you in "fashionable shoes" and then be made to see that splintered, withered excuse for a toenail on your pinky toe.

  • Can I sue a dentist for not prescribing pain medication after a root canal?

    The Tuesday before Thanksgiving I went to the dentist for a root canal on a front tooth. I was not in pain when he did it, but the root canal was done in preparation for the tooth to be crowned. So, he does the root canal (again Tuesday before Thanksgiving) and all was well. Come Wednesday evening around 8pm I am in intense pain. So bad I could not go to work that evening. The dentist went away for a few days and I could not get him on the phone. I was literally crying (44 year old man) from the pain. It was so bad I finally had to go to the emergency room Thanksgiving morning. The hospital did an occipital nerve block, and prescribed Tramadol for the pain. Well it turns out that I was allergic to Tramadol and my face swelled up badly. When I finally got in touch with the dentist he told me there should not have been any pain since I wasn't in pain when the root canal was done. Does this sound right? Isn't it standard procedure to prescribe pain medication after a root canal? Is that negligent? Can I take any action against this dentist for the pain and suffering?

  • What are the blue, white, and gold arrows painted on Philadelphia streets for?

    I've noticed the painting of those arrows recently. They are in the middle of the street, with two arrows in front and one centered behind. They are painted with a stencil. What are they supposed to represent? Does anyone know? If you don't know, please don't say "I don't know" or something like that, ok?
