I was tagged by Pieter Marbun yesterday.

The Rules:

* Players start with 8 random facts about themselves.
* Those who are tagged should post these rules and their 8 random facts.
* Players should tag eight other people and notify them that they have been tagged.

Eight random facts about me:

1. Born in a village called Mojowarno. Mojowarno is a combination of two words, Mojo = is a kind of unedible fruit. Warno=Colour. The naming might be related to Mojopahit, a historical kingdom which was located relatively near to my village.
2. Frequently mistaken as Filipino (^_^) In reality, I am a pure breed Indonesian Javanese (Well I can’t really say I’m pure breed since I never test my DNSA. Although I know exactly my lineage up to my great grandparents. All of them are Java programmer nese. (^_^)/ )
3. Loves spicy foods
4. Wanted to become a pirate. But turned off by Pirates of Malacca Straits. These pirates are neither cool nor savvy. They are just purely violent criminals.
5. Lamb Chop with Black pepper sauce is probably the most frequent food I ordered in any food court
6. The eldest of 4 brothers. That movie very unlikely to be inspired by me and my brothers 😀
7. Believes in afterlife. Although I am in constant fight between good and evil (T_T)
8. Procrastinates frequently =P

I shall continue to pass the tags to:

1. Made Adi
2. Gede Artha
3. Adhi Wibowo
4. Haqi
5. Brett Mckay
6. Culture Shiok!
7. Lisa
8. Karen

Keep it going …..

On 18th May 2007, Tanmoy commented on “How To Kill MS Excel Process Started by ASP.NET”.

Initially on denial (^_^)/, I finally have time to investigate the issue. Tanmoy actually got it correctly. So I created a new GUI demo on how to correctly kill a particular Excel process.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Excel;
using System.Diagnostics;


namespace ThreadingGUI_01
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            ApplicationClass app = new ApplicationClass();
            if (app == null)
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Unable to Open Excel");
            }
           
            app.Visible = true;
            _Workbook wb = app.Workbooks.Add(XlWBATemplate.xlWBATWorksheet);
            this.listBox1.Items.Add(app.Hwnd);
        }

        private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (this.listBox1.SelectedIndex >= 0)
            {
                Process[] procs = Process.GetProcessesByName("EXCEL");
                int selectedExcel = (Int32)this.listBox1.SelectedItem;
                foreach (Process p in procs)
                {                    
                    if (p.MainWindowHandle.ToInt32() == selectedExcel )
                    {
                        p.Kill();
                        this.listBox1.Items.Remove(selectedExcel);
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Thanks to Tanmoy (^_^)/

Larry Keiler asked me whether the Sodeve’s WP-Translate works on Blogger. The answer is no. This is because Blogger doesn’t use PHP (frankly, I’m don’t know. My hunch tells me it’s running on Python.)

I actually have written the JavaScript version of the plugin. You could see it running here.

Basically it consists of two parts, the JavaScript, and HTML. You could host the images in your own blogs, but it would be tedious to add the flags one by one. So I put them up at PhotoBucket. This way you can just copy and paste into your Blogger layout.

Javascript Part:

function translateURL(langcode){  
   var URL ="http://world.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent";  
   var curURL =self.document.URL;  
   var targetURL = URL; 

   if (curURL.indexOf(URL) != -1) { 
      if (langcode != '') { 
          targetURL = targetURL  + "?lp=" + langcode + "&url="; 
          targetURL = targetURL  + curURL.substring(curURL.indexOf('&url=')+5,curURL.length); 
      } 
      else { 
          targetURL = unescape(curURL.substring(curURL.indexOf('&url=')+5, curURL.length)); 
      } 
   } 
   else { 
      if (langcode != '') { 
         targetURL = targetURL + "?lp=" + langcode + "&url="; 
         targetURL = targetURL + escape(curURL);  
      }   
      else  { 
         targetURL=curURL;  
      } 
   }
   self.document.location = targetURL; 
} 

HTML Part:

<table style="border=0px;padding:5px;">
<tr>
<td ><img alt="Back to English" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('');" src="http:/images/photobucket/uk.gif"  /></td>
<td ><img alt="English to German" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_de');" src="http:/images/photobucket/germany.gif"  /></td>
<td ><img alt="English to Spanish" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_es');" src="http:/images/photobucket/spain.gif"  /></td>
<td ><img alt="English to French" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_fr');" src="http:/images/photobucket/france.gif"  /></td>
<td><img alt="English to Italian" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_it');" src="http:/images/photobucket/italy.gif"  /></td>
<td ><img alt="English to Portuguese" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_pt');" src="http:/images/photobucket/portugal.gif"  /></td>
</tr><tr>
<td ><img alt="English to Dutch" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_nl');" src="http:/images/photobucket/netherlands.gif"  /></td>
<td ><img alt="English to Greek" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_el');" src="http:/images/photobucket/greece.gif"  /></td>
<td ><img alt="English to Nippon" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_ja');" src="http:/images/photobucket/japan.gif"  /></td>
<td ><img alt="English to Korean" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_ko');" src="http:/images/photobucket/korea.gif"  /> </td>
<td ><img alt="English to Russian" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_ru');" src="http:/images/photobucket/russia.gif"  /> </td>
<td ><img alt="English to Simplified Chinese" style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="translateURL('en_zt');" src="http:/images/photobucket/china.gif"  /></td>
</tr>
</table>

So now how to add it to Blogger? Please follow this steps:

1. Login to Blogger
2. Go to Dashboard, then click Layout
   
3. At the sidebar location. Click “Add a Page Element”
   
4. A new window will pop-up. Select ‘HTML/Javascript’, click ‘Add to Blog’
5. You now will have a text box and a text area. Leave the title blank. Copy the code described in the ‘Javascript Part’, then paste it in the text area. Then copy the code from ‘HTML Part’, and paste it also in the text area. Inside the text area, separate the Javascript and the HTML with one line.

You are good to go. If you like this tips, I would be grateful if you link-back to this blog. Thanks.

Good luck with your Blogger (^_^)/
