Welcome to my new blog!

I've decided to convert my dotnetblogengine to a blogspot blog, and I have bought a new name for the blog, in the same process.

The reason I bought a new domain name, is because i wanted something shorter, and i was able to make it quite short and with my initials in it TF, the x represents the unknown parameter.

Why i choose blogspot is because nearly all my other products is google, and they work very well together, so it was a natural choice, another selling point was that I don't have to "mange" my own application anymore.

The blog is far from done yet! ..I will give it a new design soon, and much more to come. I will also start blogging a bit more again, the reason why i haven't blogged this much recently, is because I was very tired of the "trouble" I had to go to, just to write a blog.

All posts older than this, is directly imported from my old blog frostyzone.net.

jQuery Treeview persist preSelected

This is another addition to the jQuery treeview plugin, developed by Jörn Zaefferer
My old addition to the script can be found here Ignore query in jQuery treeview persist location (i think it has been handled in his version too)
 It is still a "problem" with persist, this time I output the menu with the item already selected by the class selected.
But when this is done, it wont expand to the item I have pre selected, that is why I made this little addition:

case "preSelected":
    var current = this.find("a.preSelected");
    if ( current.length ) {
  // TODO update the open/closed classes
  var items = current.addClass("selected").parents("ul, li").add( current.next() ).show();
  if (settings.prerendered) {
   // if prerendered is on, replicate the basic class swapping
   items.filter("li")
    .swapClass( CLASSES.collapsable, CLASSES.expandable )
    .swapClass( CLASSES.lastCollapsable, CLASSES.lastExpandable )
    .find(">.hitarea")
     .swapClass( CLASSES.collapsableHitarea, CLASSES.expandableHitarea )
     .swapClass( CLASSES.lastCollapsableHitarea, CLASSES.lastExpandableHitarea );
  }
 }
    break;

i just copied the location method and replaced this:

var current = this.find("a").filter(function() {
 return this.href.toLowerCase() == location.href.toLowerCase();

with var current = this.find("a.preSelected")
The only thing left to do is to add the class preSelected to the selected item, when you output the treeview.

jQuery carousel lite with dynamic paging

sorry for the missing description. I will might but it on later

Resources

index.htm

<script src="jcarousellite_1.0.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<ul class="paging"></ul>

// build links  
var itemArray = new Array();
$('.carousel ul').each(function(i) {
    var carouselNavDivs = $('ul.paging');
    $(carouselNavDivs[i]).append('<li class="prev"><a><<</a></li>');
    $(this).children().each(function(j) {
        itemArray[j] = "." + j;
        var linkNum = 0;
        linkNum = j + 1;
        $(carouselNavDivs[i]).append("<li class='" + j + "'><a>" + linkNum + "</a></li>");
    });
    $(carouselNavDivs[i]).append('<li class="next"><a>>></a></li>');
});

$(function() {
    $(".carousel").jCarouselLite({
        btnNext: ".next",
        btnPrev: ".prev",
        btnGo: itemArray,
        circular: false,
        visible: 1
    });
});

jcarousellite_1.0.1.min.js

if (o.btnGo)
    $.each(o.btnGo, function(i, val) {
        $(val).click(function() {
            $.each(o.btnGo, function(i, val) {
                $(val).removeClass('active');
            });
            $(this).addClass('active');
            return go(o.circular ? o.visible + i : i);
        });
    });

Still needs to be able to select current when using prev/next

How to partition a hard disk drive containing data

I needed to partition my newly bought 1TB WD disk for my HTPC, because i wanted to use some for OS and the rest for data storage, but i had already put 200GB of data onto it. I will explain how I handled this problem, and still kept my data.
First of all i needed a program capable of partitioning a disk that contains data. I was a little careful picking the software, because a software crash right ind the middle of the partitioning, would destroy the data that was already on the disk.

I read a lot of recommendations in different forums and stumbled upon this: http://www.partitionwizard.com/, it did exactly what i needed!
And it was really easy to use, just a few clicks and the disk was partitioned in a few minutes. But remember that it is recommended to backup the data before using the program, even though the program is capable of saving the data.


One thing i struggled with a lot afterwards, was installing the OS and it seemed like i needed to set my newly partitioned part to active(has to be if it should be bootable), stupid mistake but took a lot of time before I realized it was the problem.

Place text and divs beside each other using css

I suddenly needed to have some text beside a div, but i just couldn't remember how.

But i figured it out and here is my solution, and yes it's not the most complex thing in the world ;)

html:

Some text <div class="divBesideText"></div>

CSS:

.divBesideText
{
    display: inline;
}
