requirement 6 on the project - after speaking with justin

Hello professor,

Justin just asked you about item 6 in the requirements section for Project 2. We at fishfood are not too sure what you expect?

here is the requirement:

A lsttab report showing the Oracle tables and views you are using for Project 2. This report should not list any extraneous tables or views that do not relate to the project.

Thank you for your help. I had a great time in your class and definitely learned alot. Thank you Professor Gibson!

adding a picture etc?...

I was trying to add a picture as well into the html, but I'm not to sure where to upload it. Any suggestions? Would it be better if I reference from some other website? Or is that possible. I'm a little rusty on my html from CIS301.

Problems with formatting

Does anyone know how to format the html? I have been trying to play around with the formatting. I put in the code correctly. I'm pretty sure it is correct, and for some reason, it is not picking up my changes. I can add text no problem, but when I format the background color or text color, nothing seems to work. Is there some kind of a template that is in place that is not letting me change the formatting?

have to go back to nyc again

Hello,

I am back on the prowl for jobs again. I have another interview set up for next Thursday on the 9th of December in NY. I really hate to travel for these interviews since they mess up my schedule so much. The last time I took a flight back to NYC, it really messed up my schedule and it took me so long to get back into school mode. I even stayed in Michigan this thanksgiving because I didn't want to take a plane, and now, I have to take it again. Guess I just can't get out of it.
I understand that we have a presentation on the 9th for project 2. I am not to sure what I can do to make up for not being in class that day?

Name of the CEO on Forbes?....

Does anybody remember the name of the person that came to speak about using Google to market his company for free? He was the tall man that was on the front page of Forbes magazine. I wanted to do a little of research about him for my communications class. I have to write a memo to the CEO of a toy company on the possibilities of having a web presence for its toy retail business. They have a limit on their capital since their sales have been stagnant. The method the person that spoke to us of using Google to get his company know seemed like a great way to have a web presence for virtually no money spent. I would like to mention his method in my memo. So if anybody remembers his name, it would be great. Thanks

another minor technicality

We were also just noticed another problem with the date format. In the HTML version of the query results, the date is displayed along with a "0.0.0". We are assuing this is for the time of day. We obviosuly want to get rid of it but don't know how. The zeroes don't show up in our sql and xml, but somehow it shows up in the html. Any ideas on how to get around this?

Thanks.

problem with having column header

Hi,

my group and I are a little stuck on the having the column header display as we want it to. In our raw code, we wanted to display a certain column with a certain name. However in the html, the column header shows up as blank. It works in SQL and XML, but it doesn't show up in html. We were wondering if anyone else was having this problem and if you know how to fix it? Thanks.

Getting back

I just got back from NYC from some interviews last night. I missed several classes because of these interviews and just been trying to get caught up again. I've never actually been this far back behind in classes before, but I don't have anything lined up anymore so it shouldn't be to bad. I just wanted to mention how having some BIT experience has helped in my last interview. After the interviews, the comapny placed all of us in a room to take a test. There was a section in excel on loan amortization. I think the main trick was to to put the $ signs for each cell in the formulas which a lot of the other candidates forgot to do. I remember playing around with the $ signs in JG Walls class last sememter in CIS 311. I'm glad I remembered. Hopefully the interview went well. I'll try to keep posting!

question about associative entities

Hello,

I have a quick question about the project. My group was going over our ER diagram and we encountered something that looked very odd. It was an associative entity, linked to 2 other associative entities. We looked at the attributes and everything look as if it were in place. Everything seemed to make sense. We have just never seen an associative entity linked with another associative entity before. We were wondering if anyone has ever encountered anything like this, and if this would be legit? Please get back to me if you can. Thank you.
