I bought a HTIB that included the Onkyo HT-RC160 (very similar to the 707, I believe). Anyhow, I've got HDMI running from the receiver to my TV, and into the receiver--all via HDMI--are a Blu-Ray player, Xbox 360, Apple TV, and DirecTV receiver. Now, though, I want to hook up the Wii...which...

Well, proving that bullheaded stubbornness always wins out, I've succeeded. With the proper Googling, I found that, apparently, WPA2 is not supported under Tomato for routers acting as a wireless client (or, I presume, a wireless bridge--or anything other than an AP). As much as I didn't want...

Quick update. I plugged the WRT54GL into the Airport via the WRT's WAN port. I then plugged my iMac into the WRT, and was able to surf the Web just fine. However, when I tried to bridge the Buffalo (as client) to the WRT (as Access Point) with WPA2, it failed. It occurred to me that although...

Okay, I've grabbed my old Buffalo router (which also has Tomato 1.27 on it), so now I've got two 802.11g routers, and one 802.11n router. Would I be better off setting the Airport Express as N-only, then hard-wiring one of the G routers onto it, then using that one as the "base" for the remote...

I actually re-flashed to DD-WRT and followed their wiki guide for bridging...and got so lost that I'm not quite sure I set it up right. However, that didn't seem to do anything. I'm willing to give it another go if you know of a step-by-step guide that doesn't suck!

I'm attempting to use my Linksys WRT54GL with Tomato 1.27 as a wireless bridge, with an Airport Extreme (MB053LL/A) as the main router. Following instructions at http://www.wi-fiplanet.com/tutorials/article.php/3810281 and configuring the Linksys as a wireless client, I can get things working...

I may certainly learn the GD library if I have the time, but I'm wrapping up a 15-credit hour semester, while also working 40 hours a week...so it makes things difficult. But I'll certainly look into it, nevertheless.

Not the easy solution indeed. :( See, sadly, that's what I need--something really easy. Otherwise I simply can't move forward. I just don't have the spare hours in the day.

jQchart doesn't look like it'll do what I need (but I can't really tell--it's not documented very well, at least not to my distracted mind), but JpGraph might do. Gantt charts (which I've just learned more about in one of my courses!) are about the closest thing to what I'm doing, so I might go...

As seen in the second example here: http://www.mrexcel.com/tip052.shtml I'm developing what has turned out to be a very large tool to look for patterns of academic dishonesty in some of the online courses my department offers. To that end, I find it useful to look at when a group of...

I ended up figuring it all out. It's a bit complicated to explain, but in essence I ran a loop as many times as there were questions, then creating a mini-array of the student answers for those questions. Because some might be empty strings, I then unset those blank elements (after first...

If only! We're using FileMaker. As for multi-dimensional arrays... I actually have a large "comparison" array that holds N arrays, where N is the number of groups. Within each group array are several separate arrays, one for each student.

Just to clarify: The problem I have is that I don't know how to say "Compare this element of the working array to the same key/value in the next one in the line."

Let me start off by saying: I suck at arrays. I have a hard time visualizing the intricacies, although I usually end up with a satisfactory result. This time, I'm having a doubly hard time. The goal is this: I want to pull student records for an exam and compare answers among students. The...

Well, the resolution has been found...sort of. After much searching on the Web, I came across the Firefox forum thread where people were discussing a similar problem. That led me to an Adobe thread that discussed things in more detail. Turns out it's an issue with Flash Player version 9. I...
