How ironic. Diebold website
Edited on Sun Aug-06-06 06:29 PM by Maestro
I was visiting the Diebold website out of curiosity to see what it said about their machine's security. I just really wanted to read the spin. Well I am running the latest version of Firefox, but I get a script error when I visit the page. Most of the page displays correctly except for the script, probably java script. Anyhow, I thought it was ironic that they can't get the script right or maybe it is Firefox. :shurg: Anyhow I thought it was funny in a sad way. Here is a screenshot. It's not much but for some reason it struck me as highly ironic.



:rofl:

2. vb script, just vb.net

MS is vb.net, jrd200x is right, an IE issue

I took a programing class in that, just GUI interactives.

You can change any project in the forms. Color, fonts, lines
Easy, just as long as you know boolean algebra, Ie, if, then, else.., and, or, not, xor, and decide in the properties on what you are looking for.

Versions of Visual Basic .NET
As of November 2005 there are three versions of Visual Basic .NET.


Visual Basic .NET
The original Visual Basic .NET was released alongside Visual C# and ASP.NET in 2002. C# — widely touted as Microsoft's answer to Java — received the lion's share of media attention, while VB.NET (sometimes known as VB7) was not widely covered. As a result, few outside the Visual Basic community paid much attention to it.

Those that did try the first version found a powerful but very different language under the hood, with disadvantages in some areas, including a runtime that was ten times as large to package as the VB6 runtime and a greatly increased memory footprint.


Visual Basic .NET 2003
Visual Basic .NET 2003 was released with version 1.1 of the .NET Framework. New features included support for the .NET Compact Framework and a better VB upgrade wizard. Improvements were also made to the performance and reliability of the .NET IDE (particularly the background compiler) and runtime.

In addition, Visual Basic .NET 2003 was also available in the Visual Studio .NET 2003 Academic Edition (VS03AE). VS03AE is distributed to a certain number of scholars from each country for free.
