How do I stop a browser from unloading my page when delete is pressed?
How do I stop a browser from unloading my page when delete is pressed?
I'm making a sort of a terminal that uses JavaScript to type the commands. The text is all inside of a <div> when the onKeyDown event is triggered.
My problem is that whenever the delete key is pressed the browser does the equivalent of pressing the back button. This wouldn't be a problem if I could put it into a textarea, but for it's purpose I can't. :(
Thanks. :D
1 AnswerProgramming & Design1 decade agoHow do I convert old MS Word Equations?
I've converted an old Microsoft Word for Mac document into a newer version on a newer Mac, and have run into a problem. Equations that should look like look like 2 over 3, come out as \f(2,3). That's the standard way they should be typed, according to MS Help, but they're not converting, even if I retype them. Please help.

2 AnswersSoftware1 decade agoWho can help me with my Obj-C Undo Manager?
Is anybody here a Cocoa dev? I need some help with an app I'm making in Xcode. In it there are
various "filters" that can be applied to a textarea. My problem is that, once a filter is executed, it can't be undone. To fix this problem, I added the following code before the filter takes place:
[[textArea undoManager] registerUndoWithTarget:textArea
selector:@selector(setString:)
object:[textArea string]];
This successfully added an undo, but when I test it there is no visable effect, and the textarea does not revert to the old text. I get no error log. Am I missing something? could somebody please help me out? Thanks.
1 AnswerProgramming & Design1 decade agoWhat is wrong with my Mac?
My iMac's software seems to be going crazy. Sometimes it randomly erases characters (For example, it won't show "W"s on a webpage.) and sometimes seems to put in random backspaces so that words overlap. It's done this in Safari, Firefox, Opera and Preview (in a PDF). Oddly, this has happened on another iMac of mine, too. Relaunching the troublesome application seems to help, but normally only fixes the problem for less than a minute. This is driving me crazy. Please help!
5 AnswersSoftware1 decade agoWhat's up in brain input technology?
I've heard some stuff about (relatively) new brain sensors that can be used as computer input. I'm pretty sure this is true, but how far does this go? Two dimensional manipulation? Thought-to-text? Thanks.
