CFDocument in fontembed

Thu, 04 Apr 2013 08:52:00 -0700

Last 3 days, I'm about to generate one of our reports to PDF with cfdocument but I don't know why our unicode font is missing as displaying "blank" in cfdocument even this font is in my pc. That's why I request my junior to investigate the problem to be solved. After a day, she found how to display unicode font in cfdocument. First of all, we need to install font in our server first. Then, we need to go CFAdmin > Font Management and add installed font into coldfusion to be recognized. After all, we need to add fontembed="yes" in cfdocument as follow.

moveToNext and moveToFirst sqlite cursor

Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:09:00 -0700

Honestly, I've never recognized every top record is missing when I retrieve data from sqlite table. It's really bad when someone point out that one record is missing even it's in sqlite table. That's why got stressed that how come every one top record is missing by following coding.


while(cursor.moveToNext()){    				    				
	startfrom = Integer.parseInt(cursor.getString(0));
}

Background image with percentage

Sat, 09 Mar 2013 05:19:00 -0700

Today, I've found that we can adjust background image with percentage in CSS. The time before I knew only to adjust background image with two positions. It's left, right, center and bottom, up position. Now I know is to adjust by percentage for those two positions.



.mybg {
background: url("img") no-repeat center left;
}

Here is modern adjustment



.mybg {
background: url("img") no-repeat 50% 25%;
}

It's cool, isn't it?

405 - HTTP verb used to access this page is not allowed

Wed, 09 Jan 2013 19:10:00 -0700

Yesterday, I've encountered this error "server error:405 - HTTP verb used to access this page is not allowed" when I call "http://www.ppshein.net/test.html" HTTP GET from my android program. I'm confused why I got this error even I've tried following url in my desktop browser is fine. Thus I was googling and find how to solve it. After few minutes, I've found answer how to solve this problem. It's quite simple that change file extension to ".cfm" instead of ".html". It's because of web server doesn't let any request containing POST/GET method to any static page called ".html, .htm", will return such following error called "405". Thanks god that I've got new experience.

Thu, 20 Sep 2012 03:22:00 -0700

In these days, I've published two updated android application to Google Play (Planet Myanmar News and Planet Myanmar Dictionary). In both of them, I've changed 100% sidemenu UI design like Facebook and GooglePlus for easy to use and navigate. You may ask why I didn't use Tabs and Menu features of android. It's because of I don't want those tabs will overlap on my screen and want bigger screen for my application.
