  • CSS font-face not working locally, how come?

    I am using @font-face to change my website fonts. The problem is, the fonts only change after I upload my site to my server (HostGator), but do not while I am viewing them locally through xampp. I change no code before I upload the site, and I am making sure that xampp and all its features are running before viewing locally. Does anyone know why? Below is the code...

    @font-face {

    font-family:lithosPro_black;

    src:url(../fonts/lithosPro_black.otf);

    }

    -----------------------------------------------------------

    <li><a href="#" style="font-family: lithosPro_black;">Home</a></li>

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    For some reason it will not work while viewing locally.

  • Router Transfer Speeds on Own Network Slow?

    I have been transferring files from one of my computers to another through my own network. I started out getting speeds of 10 mb a sec which stayed consistent for about 8 gb of data transfer. Now, the speed has dropped to 1 mb a sec. Is there any reason why this would happen? Could it possibly be because the first 8 gb were a different file format than what I am sending now?

  • Isn't this website AllSmartGames.com illegal?

    The website "allsmartgames.com" allows you to download free games that are made by, and sold by other companies. The companies obviously are not giving these games out for free considering they are still being sold on their websites. If this is illegal, how is this site still allowed to operate?

    I'm basically asking because I want to know if I can keep downloading them, or is downloading them illegal? Does this site and the game manufacturers have something worked out between each other?

  • VB ListBox not refreshing data?

    I have a ListBox and DataGrid bound to a DataSource. I also have a TextBox bound to the same DataSource. Everything is working like it should. When I add new data, it saves the data into the database and refreshes the listbox and the DataGrid and shows the new data immediately. Now, if I put a TextBox thats bound to the same DataSource on a different form, the data will save but the ListBox and the DataGrid on Form1 do not refresh. I can only see the new data I added after I restart the program. Anyone know what I can do to refresh the ListBox and DataGrid on Form1 from a different form?

    I have already tried .refresh() and .update() and stuff like that for both the controls and the table adapters and datasources. I cant find anything that works.

  • VB MsgBox problems, can you help?

    I am having a problem with msgbox dialog results. I want a message box to appear when someone goes to delete a record from the database. I can get the message box to show, but for some reason, when i choose No, it executes the "yes" result as well (it deletes the record anyways). this is the code.

    If lblDatabaseLabel.Text = "Employee Database" Then

    MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this record?", MsgBoxStyle.YesNo, "Delete Record?")

    If MsgBoxResult.Yes Then

    Me.TblEmployeeBindingSource.RemoveCurrent()

    Me.Validate()

    Me.TblEmployeeBindingSource.EndEdit()

    Me.TblEmployeeTableAdapter.Update(Me.GoodysDBDataSet)

    Else

    End If

    End If

    I have also tried it specifically telling it what to do if the result is no and it still does the same thing. Then, if i switch them around and have the "No" result first, it just shows another message box with the number 7 in it then it goes away and nothing happens. But when I choose Yes, nothing happens again. It seems like its only executing the first if statements no matter what.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated =D

  • VB MsgBox problem, can you help?

    Im using a local SQL database. My SaveItem button works fine and saves the data like it should. However, I have a msgbox appear before the form closes to ask if you want to save all data before closing. This is the code:

    Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(sender As Object, e As FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing

    MsgBox("Do you want to save data?", MsgBoxStyle.OkCancel)

    If DialogResult = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then

    TblInventoryAlcoholBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(sender, e)

    Me.Close()

    ElseIf DialogResult = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Cancel Then

    Me.Close()

    End If

    End Sub

    This is the Private Sub Im calling:

    Private Sub TblInventoryAlcoholBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TblInventoryAlcoholBindingNavigatorSaveItem.Click

    Me.Validate()

    Me.TblInventoryAlcoholBindingSource.EndEdit()

    Me.TableAdapterManager.UpdateAll(Me.GoodysDBDataSet)

    End Sub

    Its not saving the data for some reason. Can you not run other private subs from within a different private sub? If you can, what am I doing wrong?

  • VB - PictureBox Inside GroupBox Help?

    I have a groupbox with some labels and text boxes inside which show up just like they are supposed to when the form starts up. The group box is visible at startup as are the labels and text boxes, so no code is being used to show them at runtime.

    Now for some reason when i add any components, whether it be a picture box, label, text box, or anything, It will not show up at runtime like everything else does. I made the new PictureBox visible, placed a static picture inside, but it still wont show up. Anyone happen to know how to fix this problem?

    (p.s. - I have no code showing or hiding any components, they are all visible and set to show at runtime)

  • Visual Studio 2012 Settings Help?

    Is there any way to add "settings" through code so new ones can be added and saved at run time (also after the program is published and installed)?

    The settings I am talking about are in your main project properties under settings. They are the settings you can access with the following code: My.settings.settingsname blaa bla blaa =D

  • Can you help with Skyrim V?

    I obviously suck at this game, but would still like to figure it out. Can anyone tell me the best way to get started? Should I immediately (after a few quests) start working on smithing and alchemy, or should I worry about getting my weapons skill up? Should I not worry about anything and just quest until I level and then work on skills? I seem to be getting my *** kicked when its more than only one mob (while inside dungeons) and I die many times. I cant buy/find or make any better armor than I have already, and I have already upgraded them to "fine". I am also using the best 2 handed weapon I can find/buy. Is it because I am high up in the mountains at level 10? Any help would be appreciated.

  • Can you help with VB settings problems?

    My program allows users to change the colors of the backgrounds. It then saves those color choices upon form close or the user clicking the accept button. I have the default colors in "settings" set to Black, so all the backgrounds by default are black when the program starts up. While i'm testing the program in visual studio everything works like it should. It saves the colors and then loads the colors I chose when I start it up again. Here's the problem...

    After I publish the program and install it, the colors that are loaded are NOT the default colors that I set in "settings". If I change the colors from the program, save them, then start the program up again, the correct colors I just chose are loaded.

    Why wont the program load the default colors I have in "settings" after I publish the program and install it? I want the user to see the colors I set by default before they start changing it themselves.

I have received over 20 times. Any idea what's going on?

    P.s. i have the with set to 100% and no height set so it adapts to the content height wise.
