asp.net mvc 3 - dynamic theme in MVC3 -

-

i have been working on mvc3 new project wanted introduce concepts of dynamic themes.

instead of creating bunch of .css files , dynamically linking right one, wanted use <style> section in master <head> section specifies values use selectors , properties.

the values pulled database , written header section in style, this:

<head>  <style type="text/css"> .testclass { color:purple;background-color:lightgreen; } </style>  </head>

not answer on how achieve end, per se, as suggestion reconsider. have seen approach taken firsthand several times on years, , invariably ends first writing proprietary tool edit database themes , subsequently expensive rewrite extract themes out of database , proper css files.

one typical reason go down path of putting styles in database tends desire allow given style "overridden" on case-by-case basis - instance, in application service provider model, 1 customer wants change 1 or 2 of default styles. however, "cascading" in "cascading style sheets" allows exact behavior, without abandoning goodness of proper css , associated tools - long sequence stylesheets in correct order in page head (e.g. "maintheme.css" first, "customerx.css"), need redefine styles of interest in customer's stylesheet , automatically override in main theme's stylesheet (assuming css selectors otherwise have same precedence).

a related, different reason given going database-driven stylesheets allow end users or business owners edit styles themselves. few exceptions, sort of feature turns out less used , more difficult maintain in practice seems when drawing up. in case, number of styles being customized theoretically quite small - presumably entirely constrained - , you'd writing proprietary tool allow them edited, regardless, again suggest writing out customized styles css file on filesystem, rather database (or blob cdn, etc.).

php - What is the difference between $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] and $_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO']? -

what’s difference between $_server['path_info'] , $_server['orig_path_info'] ? how use them? when run print_r($_server) , path_info , orig_path_info not present in array. why not? how can enable them? i have read php manual on them, still don’t understand them. the path_info variable present if invoke php script this: http://www.example.com/phpinfo.php/hello_there it's /hello_there part after .php script. if don't invoke url that, there won't $_server["path_info"] environment variable. the porig_ prefix uncommon. path_info standard cgi-environment variable, , should never prefixed. did read that? (there issues around php3/php4 if invoked php interpreter via cgi-bin/ - hardly has such setups today.) for reference: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3875

fortran - Function return type mismatch -

i'm attempting recode old c++ program in fortran make use of lapack (i'm aware c++ have lapack++, i'm having lot of trouble installing it, gave up). i didn't have problems compilation, when had variables declared real . when started coding section of program required lapack, found parameters passed dsyev need double precision . tried change double precision (including changing hard coded numbers double precision counterparts, i.e. 0.0 -> 0.0d0) when try compile, following error of functions , subroutines i've written: error: return type mismatch of function <function> @ (1) (real(4)/real(8)) i'm not sure coming from, in program has been changed double precision. for example, i've declared following: double precision :: alpha(3),d(3),zeta1,zeta2 double precision :: a1(3),a2(3),d1(3),d2(3) double precision :: pi pi = 3.14159265359d0 alpha = (/0.109818d0, 0.405771d0, 2.22766d0/) d = (/0.444635d0, 0.535328d0, 0.154329d0 /) 10 i=1,3 ...

queue - mq_receive: message too long -

-
i implementing communication between 2 processes using queue. problem when call function mq_receive, error: message long. i have done following: struct mq_attr attr; long size = attr.mq_msgsize; .... // initializing queue "/gateway" int rc = mq_receive(gateway, buffer, size, &prio); if print size value, size=1, while when print same size program (got same mechanism), not long integer ( -1217186280 )... how can solve error?....so while size = 1, believe it's right "message long" why 1? p.s. have tried put : int rc = mq_receive(gateway, buffer, sizeof(buffer), &prio); but no result. it seems need read docs more carefully. when call mq_receive should pass size of destination buffer. this size must greater mq_msgsize attribute of queue . in addition, seems have error in queue attributes initialisation makes proper mq_receive call impossible. here standard message queue session: fill mq_attr struct ( doc ): struct mq_a...
