Hello everyone, and thanks for your responses in advance. I have been looking around for the possibility of having a 10-key, numeric only, input available when a user clicks on certain fields that do not require the use of the full size keyboard. I know that popovers can properly display custom types of input, but does anyone know if ...
Hi, I've got a custom view and I want to get the X and Y coordinates of a user click. I've found that I can only get the coordinates from the onTouchEvent and an onClickEvent won't fire if I have an onTouchEvent. Unfortunately the onTouchEventfires when the user drags the screen as well as clicking. I've tried to differentiate betwee...
The user can enter a math problem (expression) like 5 + 654, 6 ^ 24, 2!, sqrt(543), log(54), sin 5, sin(50). After some reformatting (e.g. change sin 5 into sin(5)), and doing an eval, PHP gives me the right result: $problem = "5 + 5324"; eval("$result = " . $problem); echo $problem . " = " . $result; However, this is quite unsafe: /...
I'm writing an XNA application with C#, and I want to be able to control the application with a graphics tablet. All I need to be able to do is track the position and pressure of the pen on the tablet, it would be nice to have some built in gesture recognition but I'm willing to build that myself if needed. My first attempt at this was ...
Hello, this is a general question but I do a desktop application. Should I check for example the firstname exceeding 50 chars or is this a matter of taste? Or should I check for > 50 chars because the user could flood my database with 10000000 chars ? EDIT: Seems I made the ball rolling... I should have said, that the firstname/last...
in python, is there a way to, while waiting for a user input, count time so that after, say 30 seconds, the raw_input() function is automatically skipped? ...
I'm doing a security audit on a fairly large php application and was wondering where I should include my user-input validation. Should I validate the data, then send the clean data off to the back-end functions or should I rely on each function to do it's own validation? Or even both? Is there any standard or best-practice for this so...
I'm using the InputManager to check if changes to controls are done by user or code. This works fine, except when user uses the context menu for cut/copy/paste. If the user do ctrl+v in a textbox, InputManager correctly notices it. However, if the paste is done from the context menu of the textbox, the InputManager never fires the PreNot...
I get a file path to a user file and I want to make sure that this path is to a valid existing user file and not to something bogus or a system file or something like that. I know I can use file_exists to check that it exists, but I'm not sure how I should make sure that the file is in a certain sub-directory... ...

The whole GUI is drawn on a canvas, and I want to be able to prompt for user text input at a given moment using a custom layout Dialog, that is then taken care of and rendered to the canvas using standard procedure. My problem, however, is ...
I'm having an unpleasant problem with my c++ example. Everything works fine until I enter something with a whitespace. #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main (int argc, char * const argv[]) { int iteration = 0; while (true) { char * input = new char[256]; scanf("%s", input); cout << ++iteratio...
I have an input asking the submitter how long an event took. Right now it's a normal textbox that should error out if anything but an integer is submitted. I tell the submitter to input the length in whole minutes. However, thinking in minutes isn't the brains best ability... Neither is following instructions, so I often get "support-re...

The payment gateway I'm using requires and I can't find a way to included an AS...
