  1. A quick spray of water up their arse from 20 feet.... They've left my garden pissed off, but in one piece! In the meantime, I've got a grizzly 3 year old who won't go back to sleep!!!
  2. Bloody hell Cath, you're on a roll today! *excuse me one sec while i 'supersoaker' the two cats who are fighting in my back garden and have just woken Charlotte up! *
  3. Hmmm, tempting.... very tempting! 33828[/snapback] remember there's an 'S' and a 'thorpe' in there as well!
  4. What have I got to do with Scunthorpe??
  5. Southern? 33180[/snapback] I said exactly the same thing!
  6. indeedy.... It is the only way to go... Pud, the javascript on the BBC News site is imbedded in the header section. They've got: <script src="http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/js/nol4.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/nol/ukfs_news/js/av.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/js/csf_2.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script> So I guess if you 'replicate' those js files on your own server and put that in the header and use the other bits i've put above, you should be ok... BTW, Gol has successfully implemented it on his site, so it is possible!
  7. it was gone midnight, i literally lifted the code off the page. Haven't had time to interrogate it yet! I'll have a closer look later on...
  8. This is the html of the page which holds the ticker itself: <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title></title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" /> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="/nol/shared/css/news.css" /> </head> <body> <div class="ticki"><a id="tickerAnchor" href="#" target="_top" class="tickl"></a></div> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- // Ticker startup function startTicker() { // Define run time values theCurrentStory = -1; theCurrentLength = 0; // Locate base objects if (document.getElementById) { theAnchorObject = document.getElementById("tickerAnchor"); runTheTicker(); } else { document.write("<style>.ticki{display:none;}.ticko{border:0px; padding:0px;}</style>"); return true; } } // Ticker main run loop function runTheTicker() { var myTimeout; // Go for the next story data block if(theCurrentLength == 0) { theCurrentStory++; theCurrentStory = theCurrentStory % theItemCount; theStorySummary = theSummaries[theCurrentStory].replace(/"/g,'"'); theTargetLink = theSiteLinks[theCurrentStory]; theAnchorObject.href = theTargetLink; thePrefix = "<span class=\"tickls\">" + theLeadString + "</span>"; } // Stuff the current ticker text into the anchor theAnchorObject.innerHTML = thePrefix + theStorySummary.substring(0,theCurrentLength) + whatWidget(); // Modify the length for the substring and define the timer if(theCurrentLength != theStorySummary.length) { theCurrentLength++; myTimeout = theCharacterTimeout; } else { theCurrentLength = 0; myTimeout = theStoryTimeout; } // Call up the next cycle of the ticker setTimeout("runTheTicker()", myTimeout); } // Widget generator function whatWidget() { if(theCurrentLength == theStorySummary.length) { return theWidgetNone; } if((theCurrentLength % 2) == 1) { return theWidgetOne; } else { return theWidgetTwo; } } // --> </script> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- var theCharacterTimeout = 50; var theStoryTimeout = 5000; var theWidgetOne = "_"; var theWidgetTwo = "-"; var theWidgetNone = ""; var theLeadString = "LATEST: "; var theSummaries = new Array(); var theSiteLinks = new Array(); var theItemCount = 4; theSummaries[0] = "The government decides that the UVF ceasefire is over after days of riots.

  9. this appears to be the script they're using.... <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- function createClass() { if ((document.getElementById) && (document.body.innerHTML)) { document.write("<div class='ticko'>"); } else { document.write("<div class='tickh'>"); } } createClass(); // --> </script><iframe height="13" marginwidth="0" width="629" scrolling="no" src="/nol/ukfs_news/hi/front_page/ticker.stm" frameborder="0" marginheight="0"></iframe></div> See if you can decipher that - i'll have a look in the morning at it when i'm more awake...

  11. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't kick her out of bed.... She just wouldn't be my first choice!
  12. Lucy Pinder - page 3 model I believe.... Second photo, I like them all except the one on the extreme right....
  13. I had a dream last night that I was talking to my Mam about the baby me and the missus are expecting next month... Woke up this morning convinced it was real and even tried to get another hours kip to talk some more to her but it didn't work!

    Top Tips

    DON'T waste money on expensive ipods. Simply think of your favourite tune and hum it. If you want to "switch tracks", simply think of another song you like and hum that instead. CINEMA goers. Please have consideration for pirate DVD viewers by having a piss before the film starts. RAPPERS. Avoid having to say 'know what I'm sayin' all the time by actually speaking clearly in the first place. DON'T waste money on expensive paper shredders to avoid having your identity stolen. Simply place a few dog turds in the bin bags along with your old bank statements. WORRIED that your teeth will be stained after a heavy night drinking red wine? Simply drink a bottle of white wine before going to bed to remove the stains. SOLDIERS Invest in a digital camera to avoid all that court martial tomfoolery after a trip to Trueprint. MURDERERS Need to dispose of a body? Simply parcel it up and post it to yourself via DHL. You will never see it again. BURGLARS. When fleeing from the police, run with your right arm sticking out at 90?, wrapped in a baby mattress in case they set one of their dogs on you. EMPLOYERS Avoid hiring unlucky people by immediately tossing half the CVs into the bin. MEN When listening to your favourite CD, simply turn up the sound to the volume you desire; then turn it down three notches. This will save your wife from having to do it. GAMBLERS. For a new gambling opportunity, try sending £50 to yourself by Royal Mail. BANGING two pistachio nutshells together gives the impression that a very small horse is approaching. BLIND PEOPLE Give yourself at least a chance of seeing something by not wearing heavy dark glasses all the time. ALCOHOL makes an ideal substitute for happiness. DRIVERS. If a car breaks down or stalls in front of you, beep your horn and wave your arms frantically. This should help the car start and send them on their way. PREVENT burglars stealing everything in the house by simply moving everything in the house into your bedroom when you go to bed. In the morning, simply move it all back again. CAR thieves Don't be discouraged when nothing is on view. All the valuables may be hidden in the glove box or under a seat. DEPRESSED people Instead of attempting suicide as a 'cry for help', simply shout 'Help!' thus saving money on paracetamol, etc. MOTORISTS Avoid getting prosecuted for using your phone whilst driving. Simply pop your mobile inside a large shell and the police will think you are listening to the sea. JEREMY Beadle When selling DVDs on your TV advert, hold the disks in your bigger hand so that they do not appear to be the size of laser disks. SHOES last twice as long if only worn every other day. SINGLE men Convince people that you have a girlfriend by standing outside Etam with several bags of shopping, looking at your watch and occasionally glancing inside. BOIL an egg to perfection without costly egg timers by popping the egg into boiling water and driving away from your home at exactly 60 mph. After 3 miles, phone your wife and tell her to take the egg out the pan. ALCOHOLICS don't worry where the next drink is coming from. Go to the pub, where a large selection is available at retail prices. McDONALD'S Make your brown carrier bags green in colour so they blend in with the countryside after they've been thrown out of car windows. And the absolute belter for last WOMEN Don't waste energy faking orgasms. Most men couldn't give a shit anyway and you could use the saved energy to hoover the house after you've been banged.

    winamp

    CDDB (http://www.cddb.com/) is the internet based database which Winamp (and other media players) polls to automatically download the album and track names for the CD you're currently playing. I presume it's suggesting that it can't make contact with the site which may be due to the connection properties setup in Winamp.
  23. I see what you mean now - 'My Music' is ovbiously one of those system folders which behave slightly differently - Fonts is another one. I'm guessing it's gonna require some tweaking to the registry to make your new folder behave in the same way as the old one. I'll have a scout round and see if I can find anything and let you know
