Have you tried 'Zap gremlins' from BBEdit (replacing them with bullet characters) to make sure there's nothing wrong. The characters you're seeing usually mean a UTF8 character has…

Or just try deleting the whole two lines there and rewrite them? That should, in any case, get rid of this seemingly rogue character...

i thought i'd sussed it there - i ran "zap gremlins" on the header file and various included files and it found a non-character in one of the files - but unfortch i'm still getting…

Is it a dodgy line break? Could try normalise line endings. Or re-opening with/without translating line breaks. Does it look weird with Show Invisibles on? What are you document…

it looks fine with "show invisibles on" and yep - the document settings are as you say. i'm wondering if it's some kind of PHP glitch. the page [index.php] includes the header.ph…

I cut and pasted the page source into a new TextWrangler file, set it to UTF-8, and saved it to a new file. I then uploaded that file straight up to the validator, and it passed. …

hi does anybody know where I can find a javascript that will change the mouse cursor or add text next to it (in a little box or something) on a rollover? I've seen it before but ca…

You can do that via CSS, via the cursor property. You can see a list of available methods of doing this here. As for the text (I assume you mean a tooltip?), just specify a title …

thanks oisin - I never knew that <title> tag existed. sooo easy but can I ask - 1. whats the simplest way to format the text box (like make the background white) 2. and is…

I should add that I found this javascript that does allow you to change the format of the boxes but my head is spinning trying to figure out how to implement it on an image based w…

YAY! managed to implement that last one on my website yugyug.com Its pretty neat. but a bit buggy - i noticed a few things: > The mouseout command to turn it off is the same …

Holy crap. Talk about mystery meat navigation!

For some while (at least 10.4.3 and 10.4.4) I have been having an odd problem trying to print from my G4 iMac to my HP PhotoSmart 7550, directly connected via USB. When I try to p…

Maybe deleting the printer and adding it again solves the problem. Yeah, I know: it seems a Windows answer, but it solved me some printing problems in the past.

I'm having the same problem as well when I first connected my printer to my Mac. Help?

Try Printer Setup Repair and see if it helps. As it is a HP, does it use the dread HP Communications process at all? If so, that could be the source of the problem too (e.g. it pr…

Have you actually tried to use the drivers from HP for the printer? (If that link doesn't work, go to the HP home page and search the Driver download page for your printer).

This problem is caused by the HP photosmart software. To print using GIMP, simply lose the HP software, but it'll stop you using the "card reader" on the printer if that model has…
