Well after almost two years, today is my last day working in education. As of September I will be on the other side receiving an education studying Software Engineering at UCLan. I personally can't wait as at 22 I feel I've put it off long enough. Working in IT in education has been an experience and a half and I have so much respect for all of you who have been in the game for a long time. I'll remain active on here (not that I post that much any way) as I enjoy the banter, and it's one of my main sources for IT related news. (plus I love the buzz of the once or twice in all this time I've managed to help someone with a problem haha).

Joomla - I seem to randomly lose the CSS on school Macs...

Might not be a lot of help but it seems to work fine for me on safari and chrome (running windows admittedly). I can't see anything wrong with the code, is there some strange setting on the macbooks that disables the css? EDIT: I meant Firefox, not Chrome... although it works in that too. -
That's because you have a 90% container and they're set to 'margin-left:5px' so they will float 5px from the left. If you try creating another smaller centred container inside the main one, then you may have better luck. CSS: .staff-container { width: 90%; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; text-align:center; } .box-container{ width:50%; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; } .staff-box { width:45%; text-align:center; float:left; margin-left:2%; margin-right:2%; background: url('http://www.edugeek.net/misc.php?do=dbtech_usertag_hash&hash=e2ebe8'); padding-top: 5px; padding-bottom: 10px; border:#000 1px solid; cursor:pointer; cursor:hand; } .staff-box:hover { background: [url=http://www.edugeek.net/misc.php?do=dbtech_usertag_hash&hash=6f9387]#6f9387[/url] } HTML: Online Bookingimages/bookingsystem.png Online Helpdeskimages/helpdesk.png

If I change to IE8 running in IE7 compatibility mode it puts them on top of each other, but IE8 itself seems to work fine. Have you tried what @comedydave sugessted?

From what I can gather from the specs the HTC seems like it will be better quality and much nicer to own, whereas the samsung seems like it will be a bit quicker. I have the Galaxy S I9000 at the moment and would happily get the second one. Samsung Kies is truely awful as previously mentioned, but the wireless version (kies air) is alot nicer to use, so it's not all bad. Also judging by the weight of the 2, the new samsung seems like it might be just as plasticy as the one I have which although it feels fairly cheap... is noticeably lighter than any other phone out there. I've never owned a HTC so can't really comment on that, but I've been very happy with my Galaxy, never had any problems with it and if I was due an upgrade I think I'd get the Galaxy 2. Hope this helps somewhat.

Well I've had a productive day.... http://pbonddesign.com/clippy.jpg -
For the most part I've fallen in love with it, but it's irritating how it's still got some of the bugs I found before. Following links in e-mails seems to just open a new blank tab rather than following the link :/ On the up side, when you pin a site to the taskbar and then open it from there the back/forward buttons get their own custom colour... That makes up for it I guess ¬¬ Has anyone checked out the amazing sites section on the beautyoftheweb.com site? Some of those sites are pretty amazing

I had a go but after a while it started doing some weird things, like when you click on a link and it opens in a new tab it would just reload the page the link was on in the new tab as opposed to actually following it.

Internet Explorer 9 is being released on Monday (14th March) 9pm PST (that's Tuesday 15th March 5am GMT). I for one am looking forward to seeing how they've ironed out the millions of bugs from the beta... and seeing "A more beautiful web" with HTML5 A More Beautiful Web Launches on March 14th

I'm not entirely sure it's the same problem, but we had problems with people adding content to windows live movie maker from a network folder.. It came up with an error saying you can't add files from network locations. To get round it we had to create a registry hack for HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Live\Movie Maker (I'm guessing yours won't be in windows live) Created a new DWORD called ALLOWNETWORKFILES Then each user had to run the hack before it would allow them access to network locations. (We only had a couple of staff members though). Could be a wild stab in the dark, but it worked here.
