Q: using actionscripts on iphone

SwastikHi! I have an html file that uses an xml.Basically, this html has some flash content.What all I have with me is a html file,.xml file, .swf fle & .js file.How can I use this html file on ipad.

What the hell is he trying to say? And why is it tagged [html5]!?
HTML5 is magic that turns Flash movies into HTML!
@DanGrossman \o/
It's easy to be fooled into believing that. Most HTML5 demos look like old Flash sites.
The ones the Internet Explorer 9 site features are the worst.
I am going to use images in my answers from now on

A: help with exec command via PHP

Dan GrossmanWhat's in your exec call is not the same as what's in your comment as the command. You got rid of the sets of quotes around the command and its argument. They may have been important.

@DanGrossman Freehand circles! reaches for upvote button
8:25 AM
Does a laptop touchpad count as freehand
@DanGrossman Those are more "freehand spirals", but I'll allow it
Cool, I just got 2 reps for a tag wiki edit
8:43 AM
@YiJiang Tag wiki edits can be contributed too? Nice!
@badp Although for rarer tag wikis you're going to have to wait for mod approval
I'm soon going to be suggesting that tag wikis be made more obvious to new users

@TimPost :) I'm good, but not that good :)
You're fast! It's closed again, even though it's NOT an exact duplicate! Congrats!
Now we must reopen it to be responsible.
I was beginning to think @Benjol was a program running in the AI lab at MIT
@Dan, It's close enough - I wish they'd take 'exact' out of the reasoning
@Tim, eh, you just have to check out some of my questions (and probably answers) to see that I'm not on a rack next to JonSkeet
Oh, I was wondering why I was getting notifications. :P
@TimStone, oops, sorry :(

@DanGrossman I actually think there might be an exact duplicate of that one. O_o
@TimStone If people used tab completion, we wouldn't have that problem :P
congrats @TimPost btw. :)
@OctavianDamiean Thanks :)
Anyway, @badp using that templating script you could easily transform any chat message you want to quote into any arbitrary format

@YiJiang eh, one of the points is being able to search the text of those messages
replacing 90 pages of funny pictures with 90 pages of pictures of funny pictures doesn't help me there
Eh... it takes chat messages and apply a template to it. When did I say it turns them into images?
@YiJiang I see, I'll look into it (hint: that's a generic term to mean I'm not too bothered by the status quo and unless you poke me again I'll forget about it; I have quite the busy February, or at least, I'm supposed to)

@badp, ok. I'm falling out of love with the /review page. There's no way to say "this is ok, I don't want to see it again". And I don't like the feeling of having to review stuff that others have already done the work for :(

A: php: why php does NOT clear memory after leaving loops?

Dan GrossmanThis isn't about garbage collection, it's about scope.

It's not going to be garbage collected any more than a variable you declare on the line before the loop wou...

@TimPost How do I post Questions like that? Is it just to post a link?

@Jonas Paste a link to any SE question and it'll be turned into a preview automatically... there has to be nothing in your message but the link

@balpha I found a tiny Markdown bug, do you want to hear about it here, or should I write up a MSO post?
Firecane refers to a hypothetical confluence of meteorological and man-made disasters, whereby a hurricane crossing an oil-laden expanse of water generates lightning which ignites the flammable fossil fuel, creating a vortex of fire. A fearful imagining born of recent cataclysms in the Gulf of Mexico, the term has gained currency in New Orleans, the city inundated by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and which in 2010 was near the site of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Lightning strikes from thunderstorms may cause isolated fires, as happened on a drill ship near the spill. Another proposed sc...

9:27 AM
@balpha _autolinkBare on the server-side and its equivalent regex on the client side (couldn't find it in the source) are missing $ as an acceptable character in URLs.
> Thus, only alphanumerics, the special characters "$-_.+!*'(),", and reserved characters used for their reserved purposes may be used unencoded within a URL. ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt
The link is generated client-side, just stripped out as part of the post-processing (Much to Popular Demand's dismay).
I have found out that it's much easier to write good questions on SO than it is to write good SO-change suggestions on MSO. I posted a suggestion to a change. It is upvoted many times but has no answers, so I actually don't know if people agree with my or if they just like that I bring up the problem.
@Jonas, if they disagreed, you'd get downvoted. Multiple times :) If they're not answering, that implies that there's nothing to add to what you've said (or they don't care about it enough to bother)
@Jonas it may be both
9:32 AM

Q: Change [osx] to [mac-os-x]

Q: Dollar sign in URL breaks link

tvanfossonI've seen a number of reports of special characters breaking links, some of which seem to get fixes, others seem to be tagged "status-by-design". I didn't see any indicating that the $ sign wasn't working so I thought I'd report it. I tried to link to: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki$?VirtualPairPro...

I have also tried a few times to write it as a question, and then make the suggested solution as an answer. Then someone else post an answer. But my feeling in this cases is that people mostly don't upvote people that answer their own questions.
All this non-counted rep is making me depressed, gotta get off the screen for a few minutes! /afk
9:36 AM
@balpha Oh, whoops...I should have checked first, sorry. Jeff just hates dollar signs, I guess? :P
Maybe he hates dollars.
=)
@balpha how about braces?
as seen in http://api.stackoverflow.com/1.0/help/method?method=answers/{id}
I downvoted @Jeff for hating dollar signs.
yeah, I know, who the hell would put braces in a URL
9:40 AM
@balpha Tell him that he can give them all to you, then.
9:51 AM
How is it working when you post change-suggestions on MSO. Do the admins scan MSO for such suggestions and then discuss them in another place? and maybe later implement the change?
@Jonas AFAIK there is a mod-only chat room, but what goes on there we dare not even think about
@tombull89 hehe, I see. it makes sense. So the problem is to make them notice your question :)
@Jonas, discussing it here is a good way, you've got two mods in here right now :) That aside, devs are more likely to check out the bug and feature-request tags than discussion. But I think your question is more mod-related than dev-related anyway.
twitch just downloaded a menu sheet for a website I'll be working on, no tables and all spaces, no tabs.
@Benjol yes, I think it could be solved in different ways.... re-tagging [osx] to [mac-os-x] or just change the way how tag-suggestions work when writing a question.

Q: You can gain reputation from edits to tag wikis, although they are not accessible through the API.

badpReputation gain from edits to tag wikis appear through the API; the API reports them as answers, but fetching them via the /answers route does not work. Case in point: My accepted edit (+2 rep) My reputation report via the API: { "user_id": 23, "post_id": 15885, "post_type": "answer", ...

WTF?

His site fails to load entirely because he's using backslashes in his URLs, causing them to return 404
Is he? Chrome seems to have ignored that. You should write that as an answer.
Presumably Chrome is smart enough to try replacing backslashes with slashes, knowing that there will be morons writing codes like that...
@DanGrossman Doesn't answers his question, which is asking about poor performance, rather than the fact that his site fails to load at all
You should still tell him... you could make it a comment
11:52 AM

I wonder why stackoverflow.com/reputation does not give the same number as SO displays in the header
@DanGrossman Because downvoting a 1 rep user has no effect on his rep?
12:21 PM
@DanGrossman the /reputation link calculates your actual reputation, whereas the rep shown in the header and to others is a cached tally
:kicks the cache:
@Dan the main difference is deletion. The cached number isn't updated when votes are deleted (either because the post that was voted was deleted, or because the user that casted the vote was deleted).

I thought that athiests SE would have seen some more momentum than it has
@Timpost, I just read (can't find link) "the most interesting questions are the subjective ones"
Doesn't mix great with StackExchange...
@Benjol Yes. The site is quite interesting, even to people who have strong religious convictions.
@TimPost, I think its survival is touch-and-go at the moment. There are quite a lot of hurdles/things that could go wrong. The subjective thing I mentioned; the potential for trolling/flamewars on a pretty sensitive subject; the fact that - I'd say - atheism is actually a pretty narrow subject area, but adjacent to lots of enormous ones.
Probably religion.SE would be too wide
...but atheism.SE is kind of narrow indeed.
12:41 PM
My predictions about the new sites have been dead wrong a few times. I thought the 'gadgets' site would take off like wild fire
@badp, yeah, then you've got philosophy, science, skepticism...
It also gives off that aura of elitism. "We're atheists. We're smart. We're rational. We have our own StackExchange."
Or, maybe this proves that atheists prefer Quora :) [ DUCKS ]
whereas, well, an SE about religion would be much more interesting -- because, well, you can talk about that religion, its texts, its beliefs, not just the lack thereof.
There is something to do kind-of-objective discussion upon.
Then again I might be misinformed or whatnot and atheism may have its widely accepted reference texts. I don't know. I'm not sure I care too much either.
@badp The aura won't look too good if it dies though, I guess...
12:46 PM
yawns
Good morning everyone
@Benjol Then it's obviously the fault of SE.
Funnily enough, some of the arguments against religious site proposals is that they will be too subjective :)
It sounds like you guys are having an interesting discussion, I wish I weren't so sleepy so I could add something intelligent!
@The, make the most of having sleepiness as an excuse ;)
@Benjol oh you know I will ;-)
I take any excuse for avoiding serious discussions in this room :-D
12:48 PM
In other news, Geoffrey Chetwood goes out of the penalty box in less than 48 hours
@badp, fingers on downvote button ;)
@badp yes, this was one thing I didn't understand either (if I am understanding what you're saying :-)
That is to say: there actually exists a whole topic of atheism? I kinda thought it was, "is there a God? No? Okay! End of discussion"
I guess the difference between an atheists site and a religious site is that one is subjective discussion about a rational philosophy, and the other is rational discussion about a subjective philosophy :)

@TheRenamedException Before you get too carried away, I suggest you look at api.jquery.com/category/plugins/templates/template-tags first ;)

@Trufa Templating tool for reformatting chat messages for archiving purposes
@YiJiang Well, those are two slightly different situations.
@YiJiang oh, I assumes you were using a templating library, Prototype has one very similar. What I meant was the ability to click a message, the pop-in functionality, that you thought to make it minimizable, you did a really nice job!
@TheRenamedException I am, it's the beta version of the jQuery template plugin
1:23 PM
(George Marian)[chat.meta.stackoverflow.com/transcript/message/492120#492120]: @TheRenamedException Eh? What is it?
They could count the number characters in the content itself, instead of keystrokes. Though, that would have its issues.
@TheRenamedException ${content.plain} - use ${} for variables
@TheRenamedException You got yer brackets mixed up. :)
@GeorgeMarian wha? wait, I am sleepy and confused
You also need {{html content.html}} for HTML strings, if not the variables will be inserted as plain text
1:25 PM
I really thought I knew how to do links...
@TheRenamedException If you were trying to create a link, it's square brackets around the text, and parens around the link itself.
Yah, I do that sometimes as well.

OMG @YiJiang this will make Town Hall Digests so much easier!!!!!!!
But, what does "Save" do?
This makes it possible to easily do the digests as a meta post. It's awesome
@TheRenamedException Saves the template
@YiJiang saves it where?
i.e. how do I get at them? Or is it like to save between page reloads?
@TheRenamedException localStorage, same variable, so it's shared between all rooms on a single site, and there's only one save state
You get it restored when you reload the page
@YiJiang gotcha
1:33 PM
(I added it because it was too frustrating copy pasting the template to a notepad when testing)
Since GM scripts will only update when you reload

I like this strip particularly because it has a moral, unlike other recent ones.

Now, we can easily post the digest in a meta post like @MichaelMrozek suggested
user153011
Hello, world! :)
The primary reason I was using a second chat room was that it would onebox, making the work much easier than copy, paste, refoemat, blah blah blah
With this script, it's actually faster than before and it generates markdown for an answer!

@Josh Here's my attempt at a meta template for doing digests
@TheRenamedException Hmmm, there's a mistake in the template there, the badp link is incorrect
1:57 PM
@YiJiang yes sorry, my bad
Hang on, lemme check if it's a problem with the script
your script doesn't insert the protocol (or the domain name for profile) links
so I manually typed it, and mistyped it
Ah, I see. Will add that then
**Candidate [${user.name}](http://http://chat.meta.stackoverflow.com/${user.chatProfile})
so, user error clearly :-)
Candidate Yi Jiang answered : @TheRenamedException Hmmm, there's a mistake in the template there, the badp link is incorrect
much better
but actually, I could probably formulate the link to your parent user too, huh?
yeah, much better!
**Candidate [${user.name}](http://meta.stackoverflow.com/users/${user.id}) [answered](http://${permalink}) :** ${content.plain}
@TheRenamedException Well, the problem is that that would only work for MSO and SO chat, where the main and chat site share ids
2:01 PM
@YiJiang bah! Of course you are correct
Well everyone should know who the candidates are, so, linking to the chat profile should be no big deal
it's easy enough to click through from there to the parent user
the permalink is what's important
because I firmly believe that while the digest may be easier to read, you need to be able to return to the source and read it yourself, to make sure you get the real info and I'm not being biased
and that would have been a major pain to create each time without your script!
