Uploading a file to AppEngine using GWT: How to provide feedback to the user? - google-app-engine

I have a GWT-FormPanel on my website, where people can upload pictures and answer some questions. It's working very well. The only problem is: I would like to provide a feedback to the user (for example: 0% to 100%) during the actual file process. But I have no idea how I can do that. I think that's a very common issue, that's why I would like to ask you guys if you know any tutorial or example that could help me to solve this problem.
I've already tried GWTUpload, but it does not do what I want: I have a submit button at the end of the FormPanel and the GWTUpload has it's own "SEND" button, which I don't want to have.
Thanks in advance for helping and merry Christmas!

From your problem statement you mean to say that you want to provide the progress bar while uploading file starting from 0 to 100%.
Take a look to this library: http://code.google.com/p/gwtupload/. This will may solve your problem.And it is also working well in all browsers and also on Linux,Mac.

Looks like GWTUpload allows to use custom submit button. Haven't tried it so maybe i'm wrong.

how can I change kiwi template text on test case?

I would like to ask if it is possible to edit the predefined text when creating a new test case? See. attachment.
Thanks,
Tomas
At the moment it is not possible to do this. Please file a RFE on GitHub so we can track this feature. We've got an idea to make it possible to select a TestCase/TestPlan as a template which can solve this request as well as a few other issues that we have open.

Creating an updating GUI, IE Video or Blog service in VB.net Winforms

First of all I would like to thank everyone on this forum, as you have made some of my friends greatest projects successful and I was hoping one of these projects can be done without them.
Now I want to expand to other services. I want to make an app in WinForms or WPF (But im still learning XAML so if you can it would help to answer for winforms) that constantly updates data and displays pictures or video in a row/rows. Like almost Moviebox for iPhone or Showbox for android. How movies are updated constantly without updating the app. (Im not promting piracy, its just the best example I could think of). And when you click on the movie(Which is a picture) it gives a description and picture and even a youtube video.
It kinda would work like a blog reader.... I think?
I think I will need a server and I will probably need a database. But sadly , i'm still a beginner, but willing to learn. Thanks and if you need any more info, please just ask. :)

Cakephp 2.X Website Looks Cached

I am trying to spin up a web application but Im having a really small problem and Im not sure how to handle it. I have did it before a long time ago but forgot (CLUTZ). When I try to access my application I see the login screen but it looks cached. I see a white page and I can see the links. The layout doesn't load for some reason. Like I said, this is a very small issue that I know someone can assist me with. If you give an answer please explain so that I can learn from it. Thanks a mil!
It sounds like what you're describing is CSS not loading. Doublecheck your <link href="…" rel="stylesheet"/> tags to ensure that they're pointing to the correct files.

Hows Mozenda Screen Scraper coded?

I want to know how is the Mozenda Screen Scraper coded?
http://www.mozenda.com/screen-scraper
I shows a browser where user can select the fields he wants to scrap and it creates a crawl script out of it.
The crawl script generation part is clear to me, I want to know does it record the user actions which the user is doing in the browser.
I want to do something similar using C#.
I guess they run something like iMacros on the backend. I even noticed the iMacros browser icon in some of their screenshots ;-)
If you want to code something like this yourself in C#, the IE webbrowser control is the best starting point!
#yc08m, I can tell you for sure that they are not using iMacros. It is all coded with their own proprietary code.
I realize this is an extremely outdated post, but they seem to rely heavily on XPath, so first things first you would need to load the page into an object that you can query. I'd recommend using something like Html Agility pack to accomplish this.

Proper Font Browser dialogs

The System.Windows.Forms.FontBrowser is a pretty horrible piece of work. I'd like to write a custom one, but before I re-invent banging-two-rocks-together, I figured I'd ask if anyone knows an intuitive, friendly and above all simple Font Picker which has been proven in the cauldron of the real world?
I agree with you about how terrible is Windows default font browser.
Some time ago I started to search for a replacement fontdialog, but could not find any (even after some days searching).
So I started to develop one in VB.NET, but never got time to finish it.
This article can help you (as it helped me) to identify what a good font dialog should have. Hope this helps you somehow. link.
If you manage to make one, please let me know! I`d love to test and use it :)
EDIT1: This link can help too.
