Number 2

It was a long time since i had gone into a quiz competition. And what a way it went, the same way i always do. With the buzzer at the death, and a last minute, last question mad rush, with hearts pumping up high, and many at the edge of the seats. Would you risk everything you have got. Will the rest leave it for the tied two to fight it out.

I am, no 2. the 1 who drives no 1 to the edge.

The Best day.....

it was different this year. May be one of the best, i am wrong, the most best day i had ever had. Though it did brought back some painful memories, which i am still trying to forget, it was still wonderful. I went to office for the class, then to my Child's house for lunch, where i also watched the movie Gangster, and then went back to office, did some work and played a good TT. Wonderful. It was not as wonderful or fantastic as some of the many days i had, but it was really a wonderful day, when i was taken back in time, to delhi and back to school days. It was wonderful. I will never forget this day.

Multilevel Menus - ddlevelsmenu

Well, last time i had written that i was supposed to convert a menu from mouseover functionality to onclick. Somehow i had done it, to the satisfaction of whoever i had shown. I don't know for whom i am doing this, but now i am happy.

The approach was same as everyother attempt at reading code. i have uploaded the js file which i had edited to achieve the desire effect. which you can take it from here. I thought it might be helpful to someone. The original script can be obtained from here (ddlevelsmenu). It works on mouse over, which i had converted to on click. This is a old version of the file that exist over there in their site, just make the same changes over there, to convert it into onclick.

I had commented whatever i had done which might help someone. If there are any unusual or wrong ways, just lemme know, so i can correct it.

The menu still lacks the ability to be on screen, when the mouse moves out of the menu. But it still has made the product a little more usable. That, is what is important. May be another day, another time, after learning Java Script i will make changes to overcome that problem tooo. or may be another version where i can combine both the functionalities with the change of a parameter or something.......

Mount an iso image

After all these years of using Linux, atlast i got it to work, i don't know what i was doing wrong all these years. (though i did get it to work one time before, that was because of the help recieved from one another colleague of mine. But this time, it is my effort. I know i am going bonkers over a simple command, but you gotta celebrate every victory, and ponder over ever defeat...

The command i used

mount -o loop -t iso9660 filename.iso /mnt/iso
