text: James McDonald had quite a game last night. Pitched seven innings for the first time this season. Rapped a bases-clearing double. Scored a run. And when he finished retiring the Cubs in order in the seventh, as the above video shows, he had himself a grand ol' time. The Pirates had (cough) been in contention (cough) in the NL Central for much of this season in part because of their bullpen, and McDonald was exiting with a two-run lead. But these are the Pirates. They lost. They're now two games under .500. They've gone from tied for first to seven games back in exactly 10 days, and they were just swept in four games at home by the Cubs. All jesting aside, McDonald had every reason to celebrate: It's now officially football season in Pittsburgh.

Your move, Long Beach.
Downey delivered a public display of affection for automaker Tesla this week when city officials visited CEO Elon Musk's rocket company in Hawthorne. They're trying to convince him to build an assembly plant on the former site where NASA assembled space capsules.
The Downey site and the former Boeing 717 site in Long Beach are finalists for the assembly line, Musk told the Press-Telegram.
In an effort to melt Tesla's heart, city officials brought a gift basket with books and other memorabilia from the Apollo project, and a letter touting Downey's many attractive features, according to the Press-Telegram. Downey took out a full-page ad in Tuesday's LA Times.
What do they see in Tesla? When it comes to venture-backed companies, the San Carlos-based electric car maker has become the most popular girl in school.
Last week, the electric automaker in San Carlos received money for which it wasn't even looking. That's after the company reached profitability in July and was selected to receive $465 million in low-cost loans from the federal government.
The company is looking for a southern-California site to build its new Model S sedan. At stake -- about 1,200 jobs.
Downey Mayor Mario Guerra has made phone calls and sent letters to Musk, who is at the Frankfurt Auto Show this week. Possibly playing hard to get.
The gift basket Guerra hand-delivered earlier this week included a silver stylus.
"We will continue to court him until he uses that pen to sign the deal," Guerra told the Press-Telegram.
Downey officials said their city has local engineers, good schools and a central location -- it's almost the city of a high-tech manufacturer's dreams.
Long Beach offers something Downey doesn't -- a state enterprise zone. Companies get a tax credit as part of an effort to provide employment for low-income residents.
Downey has so far not publicly offered financial incentives.
Tesla's run of good fortune comes after some ups and downs. Founded in 2003, Tesla had plans to build a factory and boost production in September 2008.
Then the company announced layoffs and a delay for the Model S during the market freefall.
But last week, Tesla Motors raised $82.5 million when Fjord Capital Management, Daimler, Aabar Investments and others provided new cash.
According to the Wall Street Journal:
The $25 billion ATVM program, created under the 2007 Energy Security Act, is one of most desirable sources of funding for developers of clean vehicles. The program continues to receive one application per week on average, Carol Battershell, a senior advisor of the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy office of the DOE, told VentureWire on the sidelines of the Cleantech Forum in Boston last week.
Tesla will use $365 million of its DOE loans for the production, engineering and assembly of the all-electric family sedan Model S and $100 million for a powertrain manufacturing plant. The powertrain facility will be built in Palo Alto, Calif., and the company will soon announce the site for its Model S plant. O'Connell said that the site selection for the new plant is down to two locations: Downey or Long Beach, both in Los Angeles County.

Airbnb calls its hosts "home sharers" and spins folksy tales of regular people who make ends meet by occasionally "sharing" (for money) their home.
In a deep dive into Airbnb data in San Francisco, The Chronicle found several contradictions to this just-plain-folks narrative. Almost two-thirds of local listings are entire homes or apartments, while about a third are offered by people who control multiple listings, for instance. Do you want to see how many Airbnbs are in your 'hood? The full report, with nifty interactive graphics that zero in on each neighborhood in San Francisco, is available here.
An independent project by Tom Slee, a software product manager who blogs about technology and politics, mined Airbnb data in several cities worldwide, including San Francisco, and uncovered similar results — as well as some other interesting highlights.
He examined unique property IDs in November and May in San Francisco, Paris, New York, London, Rome, Berlin, Toronto and Chicago and found a great deal of turnover.
"There is a surprising amount of churn in Airbnb's hosts," Slee wrote. "Over a third of the host population in November left the site, to be replaced by new listings."
One possible cause: people who experiment with being Airbnb hosts and find it isn't for them.
However controversy could be at work in San Francisco and New York, where the overall number of listings fell from November to May. Airbnb violates various local ordinances in both cities. In New York, Airbnb kicked off about 2,000 listings in April, many of which appeared to be illegal hotels — but Slee found that 10,000 listings had vanished.
Anecdotal reports in San Francisco say that some hosts are removing their listings, fearful of retribution from landlords for violating their leases, or from the city for flouting a local ban on short-term rentals. Slee found that 2,701 San Francisco Airbnb listings from November had vanished. While 1,945 new listings popped up, that resulted in a net loss of 756 places for rent.
The churn brings Airbnb's massive $10 billion valuation into question. Could the company hit a wall for growth?
In another post, Slee looked at listings in 18 cities worldwide to see if Airbnb's business is based on "regular people" who occasionally share a spare room, as the company frequently asserts. His findings were quite similar to The Chronicle's report on San Francisco. "It turns out there is an element of wishful thinking in the (self) portraits of Airbnb," he wrote.
Like The Chronicle, he found that the majority of Airbnb's business comes from rentals of entire homes or apartments, and a big percentage of listings are offered by people who control multiple properties, raising concerns that some landlords run illegal hotels.
Critics claim Airbnb turns precious housing supply into tourist lodging — but a survey firm hired by Airbnb earlier this month found that most San Francisco voters think the city should legalize such short-term rentals.
David Binder Research, in a report obtained by The Chronicle, said it surveyed 600 likely San Francisco voters in early June. It found that 68 percent support legalizing short-term rentals in San Francisco, 26 percent oppose the idea and 6 percent were undecided. A similar question about support for Airbnb being allowed to legally operate in San Francisco drew almost identical responses, with 70 percent in favor, 25 percent opposed and 5 percent undecided. It did not appear that the survey respondents were informed that such rentals are currently illegal.
Despite lots of publicity lately about Airbnb's impact on housing and proposed legislation from Supervisor David Chiu to legalize and regulate it, 44 percent of the respondents said they have no opinion of it, while 38 percent viewed it favorably and 18 percent said they have an unfavorable impression of it.

Local, state and federal agencies were on hand to unveil the latest security measures that will be in place for the Boston Marathon.
Runners are asked to drop gear off, such as a change of clothing, on Boston Common the morning of the marathon in a B.A.A.-provided clear plastic bag before getting on a bus to Hopkinton. However, the B.A.A. says runners can still have a fanny pack and standard "fuel belt."
Spectators along the route of the April 21 event are discouraged from bringing backpacks, over-the-shoulder bags and large coolers to the event. Personal items should be carried in small, clear plastic bags, officials said.
U.S. & World
Several new policies have already been released, including checkpoints for spectators and prohibiting unregistered "bandit" runners from joining the race.
Three people were killed when two bombs went off near the finish line during last year's marathon. The blasts injured more than 260.
Twice as many police officers as last year will line the route in eight municipalities. There will be at least 3,500 officers. Police are expecting about 36,000 runners and up to a million spectators.

LifeLink PSU provides passionate bond between Penn State, State College Area School District
UNIVERSITY PARK — A smile spreads across Marla Yukelson's face as she sits upright in her chair. Her voice grows louder and words come tumbling out a bit faster as she describes what is admittedly, for her, a labor of love.
"I love what I'm doing. This is a great job. I taught for 11 years at Park Forest Middle School where I was a learning support teacher in the seventh grade," she said. "Then I was asked to come take over this program. This has just been the best job that I didn't know I was supposed to take. It was a great move. I really enjoy doing this. It fits me perfectly."
Yukelson is the program coordinator of LifeLink PSU and a special education teacher in the State College Area School District. She has a master's in special education from the Penn State College of Education.
LifeLink is a partnership between the State College Area School District and the Penn State College of Education. Qualified SCASD students with disabilities, aged 18-21, can take classes at University Park. Penn State students volunteer to mentor those students.
LifeLink students take 100 and 200 level classes, escorted by Penn State student mentors. The mentors also dine with students and help them with homework, projects, and various crafts.
Aurielle C., a third-year LifeLink student, said her favorite classes have been Theater 102 (Fundamentals of Acting), Kinesiology 017 (Ballroom Dance), and Communication Sciences and Disorders 218 (American Sign Language I).
She said the sign language course will eventually allow her to communicate with a deaf friend. The ballroom dance class enabled her to make a new friend.
"I had a Penn State football player as an intern for that class. He was a really good dancer. He was really light on his feet. His name was Nate Cadogan. If anything, I looked bad on the dance floor because I kept stepping on his feet," Aurielle said.
Yukelson's love and passion for LifeLink PSU was shared by a record number of students last semester. In fall semester 2013, an unprecedented 265 mentors volunteered a record number of 4,806 volunteer hours.
"I feel that LifeLink is so popular because it has this unexplainable, infectious feeling in its classroom that is exhibited in all of its students and staff," said Jamie Glass, a junior majoring in childhood and early adolescent education (PreK-4).
"The LifeLink students and teachers welcome all Penn Staters into their classroom with open arms, whether those students are studying toward a degree in education, biology, engineering, or any other area of study you could ever think of. The students and staff of the LifeLink room inspire you to want to be the best person you can be and volunteers find themselves smiling throughout their time volunteering in the LifeLink room," continued Glass.
Students from all majors are eligible to volunteer, however, the College of Education has the greatest representation from a single College. Last semester, 49 College of Education students provided 1,209 hours of volunteer time.
"I think that LifeLink is so popular because the LifeLink students are so genuine and so much fun to work with. I personally started volunteering as a requirement for a class, but fell in love with the program and decided to continue to come back for three more semesters," said Rachel Mannheimer, a junior majoring in secondary education English/communications.
"I think everyone has such a good experience at LifeLink that they tell their friends, who in turn decide to volunteer. I also think that once you meet all the students and form connections with them, it's hard to leave, and so volunteers keep coming back and dedicating more and more of their time to the program and the students."
That is indeed the case, Yukelson said.
"A question on one of our forms asks, 'How did you hear about us?' and many of them say a friend is a mentor," she said. "We get a lot of word-of-mouth volunteers."
Kelcee Benzel, a sophomore majoring in early childhood education, is one such volunteer.
"I think it is becoming more popular because as word gets out about the program, it is a convenient and rewarding way to volunteer," Benzel said. "I volunteer just simply to volunteer and found out about the LifeLink program through someone in my RA training class."
Yukelson said LifeLink volunteers generally fall into one of two categories: people who simply want to volunteer and people who have worked with people with disabilities in some capacity in the past and want to continue that. She said those mentors usually share similar traits.
"Compassion, patience, organization and a willingness to be friendly and learn about a population of students that might be a little different than themselves," she said.
"Our mentors are absolutely the lifeblood and backbone of this program. Our students get so much out of their relationships with their mentors. They literally stand at the door, waiting for them to come each day."
It's no wonder they are so eager, especially considering the impact the program has on the students.
Said Aurielle, "In the beginning, when I was just getting out of high school, I got the acceptance letter and I was so pumped up. I was so excited to come here. As soon as I got here it was a huge big deal to me. I was so happy. Not only did I have awesome peers, but I also had several awesome paras, interns and teachers," she said.
"I had butterflies in my stomach when I first came up. I warmed up slowly. They grew on me. Now, they're not only my friends, they're like family."

Hi guys.
I just got a pair of used 2225H 15" woofers. I haven't put a signal through them yet. They are definitely used (cones are dusty, a little faded, even a little paint over-spray on one of 'em) but do not appear to be abused.
While unpacking them I could see through the vent screen on the back, a couple of pieces of "something" that actually looked and behaved like a couple of small slender plant leaves, or feathers, or "something." I didn't have time to get out the high intensity light to investigate further.
Any ideas what could be in that vent space? And how it might have gotten in there? And if it could be necessary to remove it?
I'm just curious and I know this forum can always answer JBL-related questions.

Boston Celtics Team Report – November 12
=== Boston Celtics Team Report – November 12 ===
(Sports Network) – Vin Baker's jumper in the lane with 20.8 seconds
remaining in the fourth quarter lifted the Boston Celtics past the Indiana
Pacers, 78-76, on Tuesday at Conseco Fieldhouse.
Paul Pierce collected 19 points, nine assists and six rebounds for Boston,
which has won two in a row after a three-game skid.
Baker had 12 points and Mike James and Tony Battie each chipped in 11 for the
Celtics, who rallied from a 15-point, first-half deficit.
Boston scored the first nine points of the fourth quarter to grab a 68-62
lead. James' three-pointer with 8:01 left culminated the run.
Indiana then broke a 9 1/2-minute field goal drought on its next possession,
as Jeff Foster converted a layup. The Pacers would go on to score the next six
points as well to regain the advantage at 70-68 with 3:55 remaining.
The teams then went back-and-forth and Pierce's free throw with 54.9 seconds
left gave Boston a 75-74 edge.
Jermaine O'Neal then scored inside on a second effort to put Indiana in front
with 37.1 seconds remaining.
On the next possession for the Celtics, Baker drove to the lane and hit the
fade-away jumper to make it 77-76 in favor of Boston.
O'Neal then missed a turnaround jumper and the Celtics got the rebound. James
was finally fouled with just 7/10ths of a second left. He made the first
attempt from the line and missed the second intentionally to kill off the
remaining time.
The Celtics host the Chicago Bulls tonight.

All My Sons©
When my sons came of age I gave the eldest a stamp I had but no envelope to stick it on; nor had a friend to send. I had one blind count in Florence who couldn't read a thing any way so he didn't count. Just the same he left his villa to me and I gave it to the second oldest. My third son got a painting that I had picked from one of the flea markets on the left bank of Seine, Paris. To my fourth I entrusted a paperweight. Of course to my last I gave a denture with initials GW.
Before I could leave this world my eldest son came smug and self assured and said, "You gave me a Penny Black,1840."
"You have made a fortune?"
"Oh no, my dog just chewed to pulp." said he.
The second son managed to arrive at my deathbed and we hugged and he said he had converted his villa into an orphanage for stray dogs. With beating heart I asked," what of that western wall on the piano nobile ?"
"Oh the figure of Christ was nude; so were apostles. So I painted over the whole thing."
"Son, it was by Michelangelo."
"Never heard of him. I had to protect the feelings of the house keeper".
The next one said the painting was so unlike a face he could live with.
"Matt, it was by Picasso. One from his cubism period". My son Matthew said, "Picasso or Pickaxe, what do I care? Either you get the face right or use a digital,- Canon is my choice, for gods sake.'
'My fourth son George, only cared for his own feelings, but still made my day. I asked what he did with the paperweight.
"How long do I think I can go on feeling a piece of glass in my pocket?"
"So what did you do?'
"I threw it into the garbage of course."
I murmured, "Hope Diamond, my paperweight and my nest egg." What George did not know didn't hurt him. I greeted my last son and he said, 'Pop the denture you gave belonged to some fellow called George Washington. You think I'll keep some one's dentures, the one that didn't fit him, will sit well with me?' So my son had smashed it and thrown it away. A man's whole life in the face of such calamity is likely to speed up and mine was in a flash.
It anyway cured me.
"Well, well," I got up from my bed and said," A bunch of hopeless idiots I raised up. I must get down to business."
All my sons were aghast and tried to restrain me. "No you are in your deathbed. Stay."
"Oh no," I was sure. "I cannot afford to die. I must at least make some money for myself.The Undertaker does not do his job for free. It is a fact of life."

Writing Advanced JavaScriptby Howard Feldman
Web ApplicationsFrom the dawn of the computer era, software interoperability between different platforms has always been a concern. Wanting to reach as large an audience as possible, publishers would port a popular software program from one machine to another, which often involved months of labor and sometimes a complete rewrite on the new hardware or operating systems. As computers became more powerful and languages like C and C++ became standards available on most platforms, it became easier to just write a program once, and compile it for as many systems as desired. As long as it had a C compiler, the software could be built, and would probably work as intended. Tcl/Tk or wxWidgets that have bindings to many popular languages such as C++, Python and Perl, and allow one to create platform-independent GUIs that behave the same (approximately) on Windows, Linux, Max OS X, and others. However, there is a very powerful GUI interpreter on almost every machine today: the web browser.
JavaScript Toolkits
Recently, a number of free JavaScript toolkits have become available from places like Yahoo, Google, and Dojo. Much like the widget toolkits mentioned above, they provide JavaScript routines for various widgets such as menus, calendars, or trees, and permit you to incorporate them into your own web site or web application with ease. A nice little summary is provided here.
Toolkits are good if you need to spice up a web page, and have many advantages. They have been tested on many browsers and generally work on all common ones. Some are well documented, and they make writing fancy web pages a snap.
However, they can also be bulky, adding several hundred kilobytes to the size of your page, and you may have to wait for support for new browsers to be added (for example, some do not work with IE7 yet). Also, many companies cannot or will not use open source software, due to the lack of accountability associated with it (i.e., you use it at your own risk) and difficulties with debugging.
The Magic of JavaScript
This is accomplished with the following two JavaScript functions:
The message itself can be instantiated anywhere on the page that a
var ie = document.all;
var moz = document.getElementById && !document.all;
var intr;
function Message_UpdatePos(msg, dy) {
var el = document.getElementById(msg);
if (ie) {
el.style.pixelTop = document.body.scrollTop + dy;
else if (moz) {
el.style.top = window.pageYOffset + dy + 'px';
function Message_Display(msg, vis, dx, dy) {
var el = document.getElementById(msg);
// Position Message
if (ie) {
el.style.pixelTop = document.body.scrollTop + dy;
el.style.pixelLeft = document.body.clientWidth - dx;
else if (moz) {
el.style.top = window.pageYOffset + dy + 'px';
el.style.left = window.innerWidth - dx + 'px';
if (vis) { // and display it
el.style.visibility = "visible";
intr = setInterval("Message_UpdatePos('" + msg + "', " + dy + ")", 1);
else { // or hide it
el.style.visibility = "hidden";
if (intr)
span tag is permitted:
This is a test…
The buttons are then implemented simply with:
omclick="Message_Display('testmsg', 1, 700, 50); return false;"
to turn on the message and
omclick="Message_Display('testmsg', 0, 700, 50); return false;"
to turn it off again.
The arguments to
Message_Display are: the
id of the
span tag containing the message text, a Boolean to indicate whether the message should appear or disappear, and the x and y offsets from the upper-right corner of the browser window where the message should be placed (in this case 700px from the right, 50px from the top). The key here is the
style of the
span tag. By using absolute positioning, we cause the message to appear to float above the rest of the web page, and not be fixed into the flow of the rest of the page. We should also briefly discuss why a
span tag is used. Both
span and
div tags are essentially "do nothing" tags, used to delineate blocks horizontally and vertically, respectively, in a document. They normally have no visible effect on a document, and so can be used to surround a block with a particular style without changing the overall appearance. Thus they are quite handy when making JavaScript widgets.
The function works as follows. First, a handle to the message
span tag is retrieved using
Timers are a useful way in JavaScript to cause a function to be executed at some later time, either once using
setTimeout or repeatedly using
setInterval. These are particularly useful because there is no equivalent of a
sleep command in JavaScript, and so these provide the best alternative. They do not consume any CPU time until their specified interval of time passes. One must be careful not to overuse these powerful tools, but they can allow one to achieve some impressive effects when used properly. In this case, we set the timer to execute
Message_UpdatePos(msg, dy) based on the argument vis. If vis is zero, the timer is cleared (and the message hidden). If vis is non-zero, the timer is set to execute every 1 ms. Note we must save the timer pointer in a global variable intr, since it must persist between several calls to
Lastly, looking at
Message_UpdatePos, note it essentially does the same thing as the beginning part of
Message_Display--it gets a handle to the message and updates the y offset from the top of the page. Thus as the page scrolls, the message position gets re-adjusted accordingly within 1 ms of the scroll event, appearing to always float at the same position in the upper right corner. Note that the message does not move if the browser is resized horizontally to make it wider or narrower. As an exercise, see if you can modify the code to do this as well.
Pop-up Menus
The next, and last, widget we will discuss in this article is more complex than the previous example: pop-up menus. First, the widget in action:
For menu click here:
This example is more complex as it involves both a JavaScript function and some complex event handling. Here is the JavaScript code and HTML used:
function getElementAbsPosX(el)
var dx = 0;
if (el.offsetParent) {
dx = el.offsetLeft + 8;
while (el = el.offsetParent) {
dx += el.offsetLeft;
return dx;
function getElementAbsPosY(el)
var dy = 0;
if (el.offsetParent) {
dy = el.offsetTop + el.offsetHeight / 2;
while (el = el.offsetParent) {
dy += el.offsetTop;
return dy;
function GetAbsWindowBottom()
// Compute the bottom of the popup window and the bottom of
// the browser window, in absolute co-ordinates - different
// on all browsers but the below should be accurate usually!
var abswindowbottom = 0;
if (typeof(window.innerHeight) == 'number')
abswindowbottom = window.innerHeight;
else if (document.documentElement && document.documentElement.clientHeight)
abswindowbottom = document.documentElement.clientHeight;
else if (document.body && document.body.clientHeight)
abswindowbottom = document.body.clientHeight;
if (typeof(window.pageYOffset) == 'number')
abswindowbottom = abswindowbottom + window.pageYOffset;
else if (document.body && document.body.scrollTop)
abswindowbottom = abswindowbottom + document.body.scrollTop;
else if (document.documentElement && document.documentElement.scrollTop)
abswindowbottom = abswindowbottom + document.documentElement.scrollTop;
return abswindowbottom;
function PopupMenu(name, vis)
var el = name + 'menu';
var tag = name + 'menuroot';
if (!document.getElementById(el)) // menu object not found
if (vis == 0) { // hide the menu
document.getElementById(el).style.visibility = 'hidden';
// Get menuroot position
var pos = document.getElementById(tag);
var dx = getElementAbsPosX(pos);
var dy = getElementAbsPosY(pos);
// Compare bottom of menu to bottom of window
var abspopupbottom = dy + document.getElementById(el).clientHeight + 10;
var abswindowbottom = GetAbsWindowBottom();
// If menu goes below bottom of window, move it up!
if (abspopupbottom > abswindowbottom)
dy = dy - (abspopupbottom - abswindowbottom);
// Set final menu position and make it appear
document.getElementById(el).style.left = dx + 'px';
document.getElementById(el).style.top = dy + 'px';
if (vis > 0)
document.getElementById(el).style.visibility = 'visible';
The actual HTML for the menu, as in the previous example, can be placed anywhere a
div tag is permitted:
And to instantiate the menu:

Menu Item #1
Menu Item #2
Menu Item #3
First, let us examine the menu. We could put anything we like in between the
X
div tags, the magic is all in the
div tag attributes. Specifically, note that, as in our previous example, we use absolute positioning, so we can control the exact position of the menu, regardless of where other text and images appear. We also ensure the menu starts with visibility: hidden and assign it an ID of testmenu, so we can easily get a handle to it later.
In the
div tag we also encounter our first use of the
setTimeout and
clearTimeout functions. These behave similarly to the
setInterval function in the previous example, except they execute a command only one time after the specified duration. In this example, they are used to close the menu 1,500 ms after moving the mouse out of the menu area, and to cancel this effect upon moving the mouse back into the menu area (while it is still open).
tout is a global variable defined in our JavaScript file and keeps a pointer to the timer object. When the onmouseout event occurs (moving the mouse outside the area spanned by the
div tag--the menu) the
PopupMenu('test', 0) is set to be called in 1,500 ms (note how we must escape the quotation marks in this case since it appears inside quotes already). Assuming this is not cancelled before the 1,500 ms elapses, the function is called, and the menu disappears (as we will see below). However if the onmouseover event should occur (moving the mouse over the menu),
clearTimeout(tout) is executed, which cancels the timer and prevents the menu from disappearing, until the next time the user triggers a mouse event.
Within the menu itself, we would normally have links to perform tasks or go to other pages. For this example they are just dummy links, of course. However do note the onclick event attached to each menu option. As with the
div tag above, these cause the menu to disappear as soon as one of the menu items is clicked (try it!). Note that no timeout is used here, as we want it to disappear immediately in this case.
The next piece of HTML enclosed in a
span tag with
id testmenuroot surrounds the clickable area at which the menu should actually appear. In the example we simply place an X in between the
span tag, but you could, of course, put whatever you like here: a button, an image, and so on. The only other thing to note here is the onclick event, which causes the menu to appear, and then sets our timer to turn off the menu again in 1,500 ms. However, we already know that as long as the user moves his mouse over the menu area, this timer will be cancelled and the menu will stay up until the mouse moves away again.
Lastly, let us examine the JavaScript function itself,
PopupMenu. It depends on a few other functions:
GetAbsWindowBottom, which simply gets the absolute position of the bottom of the browser window in a browser-independent fashion, and
getElementAbsPosX and
getElementAbsPosY, which get the x and y position of an element in absolute coordinates. These last two work by recursively adding up the offsets of parent elements until the DocumentRoot is reached. These functions may seem overly complicated, but they are most likely the only way to reliably get these values that works on almost every modern browser. Unfortunately, each browser stores this information in very different ways.
PopupMenu function itself takes two arguments: a name and a flag whether the menu should be turned on or off. Regarding the name, the menu is assumed to be surrounded by a tag with
id being the name argument followed by 'menu' (so 'testmenu' in our example since the argument is 'test'). Similarly, the position at which it is to appear is assumed to be with its top left corner situated at a tag of the name plus 'menuroot' ('testmenuroot' in the example). If the vis argument is zero, we simply set the visibility style of the menu tag to hidden, and we are done. Otherwise, we need to make the menu appear in the right spot. First, we get the absolute position of the 'menuroot' tag using the
GetElementAbsPos functions. We can then just set the menu position to these values which would make the upper-left corner of the menu appear near where we clicked to make the menu pop up. However, we do not really want the menu to scroll off the bottom of the page either; that would be annoying. Note that most widget toolkits that have pop-up menus do just that, so we will try to go one better. We can compute the bottom of the browser window, and of the pop-up menu, in absolute coordinates, as done on the next two lines. Note the height of the menu is given by the clientHeight property, and we add 10 just to give a bit of padding. Then we can easily check if the pop-up would go down beyond the bottom of the browser window, and if so, adjust its y coordinate accordingly, so its bottom just touches the bottom of the window. Lastly, we go ahead and position the pop-up menu and make it visible.

text: The tawny frogmouth is often mistaken for an owl. These nocturnal birds have a very unique appearance and are actually a part of the nightjar and whippoorwill family. Their mottled brown and gray plumage mimics bark coloration, allowing them to blend into their open woodland habitat. By day, they perch very still in trees with their heads stretched in a lengthening upward position and their eyes opened just a small slit allowing them to detect movement in their surroundings. This posture allows them the camouflaged appearance of a stump or extension of a dead branch. They also have the ability to assume an intimidating posture that makes them appear much larger than they actually are by standing their feathers up over their head and body with eyes wide open and beak gapped. Did You Know? The tawny frogmouth's coloring mimics tree bark, so it can blend in with its woodland environment. Diet Tawny frogmouths live off a diet of nocturnal insects, such as moths and centipedes, as well as worms, spiders, slugs and snails. They also eat small rodents, reptiles, frogs and birds. Size These birds grow to reach 13 to 20 inches in length. They're stocky, with big heads; long, rounded tails; short legs; and wide, heavy beaks. Range This species is found throughout most of mainland Australia, as well as Tasmania. Population Status Tawny frogmouths are common in their range. Predators Carpet pythons and large ground predators—such as feral cats, dogs and foxes—prey upon these birds. Cars also pose a threat; tawny frogmouths often chase after insects illuminated by headlights, resulting in collisions. Back to the Top

Some of you know, most probably don't, I been working on designing a new backdrop of how Dropdowns are run. My main goal is to set it up, so that the main genre drop downs, are not continually left dead-- which happens a lot. With Pillywiggins leaving it was apparant with the amount she was running, that the way dropdowns have been done in the past might not be the best way they should be done in the future *s*
The idea is rather simple. Centralized dropdowns. on the Depository, there will be copies (or the original) scripts, of all the genre and "offical" dropdowns. These are not the ones like "blood letters: dropdowns for vampires" and "comics that have X in thier name" these are more or less genre based ones... like sci fi, horror, anime, etc... the really important ones.
The reason for this, is so that if someone moderating, one or more of them suddenly goes away, we can still continue it with a new moderator, until they return, or someone steps up to take over.
Also even I am not accounting myself to not have an issue where I disappear, so the depository's login information will not just be in my possession.
with that said I've come up with some mainstays that need to be recreated
GENRES & Themes:
Science Fiction
GBLT (Queerspace)
work place
FORMATS & Styles
Black & white
Graphic Novel
Not sure if thats all of them, if there are those that are uber important to have, a dropdown for... let me know.
