I have two sets of files with newspaper articles in them; about 20 files with about 2000 articles, and 1 file with about 100 articles. The 100 articles in the single file should be disjoint from the others, but are in fact duplicated randomly throughout the 20 files (once each). Any ideas for an easy way to find and remove the 100 dupl...

In many games, when a character is speaking (dialogue), the text has a typing effect, where it looks like you are watching the character type the text. What would be a good way to achieve this look and (simple) "animation" for an iPhone game which uses cocos2d? It's good if there's a way to do it with cocos2d, but I'm not completely op...

I understand how to get the text selection from the browser, and I understand how to create a range, but I don't know how to tell the browser to change the selection to the range I've created.

I believe I've narrowed the problem down to a misuse of getRangeAt, but I'm not quite sure how to correct it. Here's the brief bit of code: function getRang...
