GMT does not change due to daylight saving times. The time in Greenwich does but then it is British Summer Time and not GMT. Its probably better to use UTC rather than GMT. They are the same but UTC is the now the standard term used.

Most of the ones I have seen are using a RSS feed. This makes it a lot easier to look through the file and extract the information instead of looking through html. Here is an article describing the RSS format http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2002/12/18/dive-into-xml.html You will see that most of the widgets parse the returned xml for certain tags and then translate that into the desktop objects that display the correct information<BR

Probably a timer is the best bet Something like this Dim xPos Dim xOrig Dim xInc Dim oppValue 'Called when the script is executed Sub Object_OnScriptEnter xOrig = DesktopX.Object("YBar").Left DesktopX.Object("YBar").Opacity = 100 xInc = int (xOrig/ 100) + 1 End Sub 'Called when the script is terminated Sub Object_OnScriptExit Object.KillTimer 432 DesktopX.Object("YBar"

Stephen, I just submitted an update to the calendar with the ability to set start of the week. Hopefully you will be able to download this if a few days and see if this fixes your problems.

Stephen, The fix with setting the DatePart to 6 was wrong. The actual problem was the column headings where arranged incorrectly. If you set it back to 0 and re-arrange the columns as described in my April 5th reply everything should be good.

This is causing the day to be incorrect. Instructions. Start Desktopx builder Import the Silica Calendar From the systray right click on the desktop x builder and click on List Objects Click on the Object ID column to sort by object

You are right lilstarfish. The problem is actually with the titles. (dateDay1 through dateDay7) dateDay7 is actually positioned to be first instead of last. Making the changes is not hard just a little involved. Basically you have to reposition dateDay1 through dateDay7. I will try re-doing the steps and write them down but that will have to be later.

Good step by step instructions lilstarfish. Once you have edited the script close the script window down (File/Exit) then press apply on the dateMonthText - Properties. Then click ok. You should now have a corrected calendar. If everything is ok go back to the Object Navigator window whichstill should be up. Select the cal_back object id from the list. Right click and select export. In the dialog box that come up

You have to open DesktopX builder. Import the widget. List objects. Click on the dateMontText object. Edit script. Close script window Save. Test. If it is fixed you then need to export Calendar object as a widget. You can then run this widget from your end-user DesktopX.

I have not been playing Rannix much. Once you hit 60 you really need a good group to do the instance. Been playing around with a few alts but none have really captured my interest. Tried creating a new character on my old game. Dark Age of Camelot. Not really getting into that either. I either need to find a new project or a new hobby. Been playing around a little with Desktop X 3 and recently trying ou

Chaging line 133 in the dateMotnhText script fixed it for me Was ulFirstDay = DatePart("w", pFirstDay, 0) Changed to ulFirstDay = DatePart("w", pFirstDay, 7) 0 uses the NLS setting whereas I think the scripts assumes Saturday (7) Hope this helps

How are you registering the callback ? Here is an example of a callback function that works. The interesting peice is setting the call back function http.onreadystatechange=GetRef("processMsg") Hope this helps Dim http 'Called when the script is executed Sub Object_OnScriptEnter getNewMessage() MsgBox("done on enter") End Sub 'Called when the script is terminated Sub Object_OnScriptExi

If you prefer JScript here is how the functions would be coded //Called when the script is executed function Object_OnScriptEnter() { Object.SetTimer(444, 1000); } //Called when the script is terminated function Object_OnScriptExit() { Object.KillTimer(444); } function Object_OnTimer444() { Object.Text = String(new Date()); }

I have not seen many examples using JScript so I thought I would try with Brad example. Here is what the code would look like in JScript The add script function Object_OnLButtonUp(x,y,b) { if (b == false) { i=0; do { i++; strname = "clone_base" + i; } while (DesktopX.IsObject(strname) != false); DesktopX.Object("clone_base0").Clone(strname, DesktopX.objec

Actually what it has to do with is the motherboard and the HAL layer. I had hyper-threading enabled which uses a different HAL. This is what would cause the problem switching motherboard and cpu. Gone are the days of being able to switch a cpu between AMD and Intel without switching motherboards. Also I have switched motherboards quit a few times and have only had to re-install XP once and that was because I had a special IDE drive

I was definately considering an AMD cpu. It was a close call but I decided to stay with Intel. (One factor is I plan to take my old hard drive and use it in the new system. Switching between amd/intel can be a nightmare. Usually Windows XP will not even startup. Staying with an Intel cpu makes it a little easier). I have not had much luck with ATI cards. The drivers have in the past caused problems with games that I played regularly.

DoubleZero - checked all those things but thanks for the info. Kobrano - yep I went with a slightly lower graphic card but most games even the high ends ones run fine with a 6600GT. The only real need to go to a 6800GT is if you want to run at 1600x1200 with aa and af. I usually stay 1 version behind the latest with both cpu and gpu as you pay a big premium going with the latest. Also true I could have got a new power supply and I pro

To give a little history my main computer died in January. This was a fairly nice system with a 3.2GHz P4 cpu 1GB of ram and a NVidia FX5900 video card. My thought was the motherboard had died because I was getting a error code related to the keyboard controller. I replaced the MSI X975P Neo motherboard with a ASUS P4PE motherboard. Was a lot of m
