Hello, The demos for the jquery ui dialog all use the "flora" theme. I wanted a customized theme, so I used the themeroller to generate a css file. When I used it, everything seemed to be working fine, but later I found that I can't control any input element contained in the dialog (i.e, can't type into a text field, can't check checkb...
Often time I need to add a control to a dialog after the dialog has been generated via dialog template and CreateDialogIndirect. In these cases the tab order is set by the dialog template and there is no obvious way to change the tab order by including a newly created control. ...
We have an error that we can't seem to find and don't have the need/resources to try and track it down. What we do need to do is just keep the freaking "Please tell Microsoft about this problem" dialog boxes from cluttering up the server.

I have this modeless MFC dialog which embeds an Internet Explorer web browser control. The control is derived straight from CWnd with ActiveX wrappers generated by Visual Studio, and I map it to the CDialog using only a "DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_EXPLORER, m_explorer);" I have 2 problems. Problem #1: Being modeless, I start and stop the di...

A simple example is fine, I'm not doing anything complicated with i...

Most of them would click ok or yes, minimize the dialog, or close the dialog, regardless ...
I'm looking for a really good dialog resizer class that will stretch and shrink individual items as needed as the screen is resized. Stephan Keil has a good one (DlgResizeHelper) which basically resizes everything by a set ratio, but I'm looking for something smarter. For example: Icons should not resize Single-line text boxes should...
I have a dialog that resizes. It also has a custom background which I paint in response to a WM_ERASEBKGND call (currently a simple call to FillSolidRect). When the dialog is resized, there is tremendous flickering going on. To try and reduce the flickering I enumerate all child windows and add them to the clipping region. That see...
I have a web page which contains a select box. When I open a jQuery Dialog it is displayed partly behind the select box. How should I approach this problem? Should I hide the select box or does jQuery offer some kind of 'shim' solution. (I have Googled but didn't find anything) Here is some code: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <hea...

Some time ago, I came across an online article that described how to configure Windows XP to automatically accept the default option on a dialog box. As I (vaguely) recall, it was some sort of oddball registry configuration that did this, and it amazingly worked. Yeah - it's dangerous, but it would be very helpful right now with a proble...

I am building an msi using WISE. The Dialogs appear fine when run on a 1280x800 resolution screen.
