  1. This is definitely related to IE6. I've tried IE8 and Chrome but it's OK. I'll post it as a bug and see what happens.

    So IPS responded that IE6 is officially not supported anymore since it's 8 years old and virtually a dead browser. I would agree, and I suggest you upgrade. Most of the web is moving in that direction. Sorry. :)

    PS. So if anyone has other problems and is using IE6. I suggest checking in other browsers before reporting the problem here.

  2. Thanks, portmon is awesome! I now have a transcript of the communications protocol which unfortunately is binary but am working on decoding it presently.

    What exactly are you trying to do? Can windows talk to this already?

  3. I think the goals of this VI Preview should be limited to a specific use case and narrow in scope in order to be a realistic achievement. I would love to have a tool that we can use on LAVA to upload navigable VI images. We can't assume all LAVA members to be able to read your code in order to support your support discussion. Having these new images will help a lot.

    What would be the ultimate is to upload a VI onto LAVA and the server would convert it to an embedded flash. But I'll accept a tool for now. When can we expect a working version we can all try out?

  4. No chance. I've deleted cookies and sign out but still the same as soon as I sign in (I've also tried another computer). But I noticed that I'm now in the Administrator group.

    After this post, I will sign out, and clear all the cache and I will come back as a guess only until you tell me to try again.

    I'm using Google Chrome 2.0, Win XP SP3.

    Other topic: With the new LAVA 2.0 I've changed my displayed name. It is the resons I lost my post count?

    Try now.

  5. The decision not to do it doesn't bother me... it just seems like an odd reason for the decision.

    There is no "decision" really. The feature you're requesting has to be built from scratch. If we were ever to implement it, then it would have to include an option for the member to opt-out of showing what they voted for.

    Are you implying that making votes public would increase the credibility of them? In any case, like any feature here on LAVA, it's mostly community driven so if the masses want it then we can make it happen. I was just expressing my opinion.

    You mentioned twitter. This is something you can opt-out of. You don't have to join twitter or display your twitter name on LAVA if you don't want to.

  6. Any idea how to find a post on LAVA 2.0 when you found it in google cache??

    It's terrible to know the exact name of the thread, the date, the section on LAVA 1.0, the thread starter... just everything but you can't find the actual link on LAVA 2.0... :throwpc:

    That's because that thread was never imported. It looks like it was in the product announcements forum so it probably got dropped is my guess. I'll have to make a note to go and look for those. BTW, you'll have better luck using the LAVA search if you enclose text in quotes. I know, that's dumb. I'm considering adding back the old lava search which I had added using the Google search engine.

  7. I think it would be nice to be able to locate the top voted posts. That would be worth implementing.

    I'm not in favor of adding features that would allow others to track member behavior. For example, I've disabled the forum features that allow you to track which member is looking at what forum, what post and is browsing who's profile (actually this last one is user configurable). I'm in favor of a little privacy when it comes to this sort of thing.

  8. I don't think NI wants developers using VIs that are not in the palette because then if they decide to change some core functionality then your app will break, because they only officially want to manage functionality exposed in the palettes. NI doesn't want unhappy customers with broken code. But I'm sure you've heard the lecture from Aristos, haven't you? ;)
