I'm looking for a tool which behaves a bit like http://www.browsersync.io/ in that I can browse in one window, and scrolls and clicks etc are mirrored in another window. However, I want to compare my stage and production sites, so I'm not comparing two browsers (would be happy to use two windows of the same browser), but to compare, for example
stage.mysite.com
with
www.mysite.com
Does such a tool exist?

I have an Excel workbook shared with other Excel users. When my co-workers and I use our different computers to print the same sheets to PDF, the page breaks differently in the resulting PDF, even though it displays the same in print preview.
We both run Windows 10, Excel 2016, using the same printer driver and printing preferences. I've confirmed the regional settings in our system are the same. No special fonts are included in the workbook. No difference in the AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Excel/XLSTART/.
How can I avoid the layout changes? Is there anything that I might have missed checking? Any help would be appreciated!
If you're both printing the same version of the same document on the same printer, driver, operating system, etc, then you are missing a setting.
Some printer settings are buried pretty deep. Also, were you using the Print Preview or Page Preview when you both viewed it?
I suspect you missed a screen of settings somewhere from the image below, likely the Options... button in the bottom right, which take you into the Manufacturer's settings dialog(s).
Another place to check for settings you may have missed is the control pael. Hit the Windows Key and type printers and hit Enter and make sure you double check every setting in that window and all of the sub-dialogs. Some printers can have hundreds of settings.
If you still can't find a difference, get a third person on a different computer to try printing it. The odd man out of the three of your print jobs, is likely the one with the different setting!
If still no go, please post screen shots.
On Windows, Control Panel -> Display settings on different computers distort how Excel fits cells onto a page from computer to computer in my experience.
Windows7 Control Panel Display Settings
Display settings did it for me. I checked language packs, versions, removed and readded the print to pdf driver packs, the works. I was about to clone the working system to the non working system. The non working system had display scaled 125%....
Writing guides in Google Docs and sharing them with other people as read-only is great. However, even when formatting it without the "Print Layout" option (the first toggle option under View menu), every viewer opening the document will see it in Print Layout, i.e. with half-empty pages before each page break. This is very annoying.
Is there any way to default the Print Layout to be switched OFF when a read-only viewer opens a Google Doc? Here are 2 ways for which I'm hoping:
via a URL parameter, so that the link I share determines the document will open with a switched-off Print Layout;
in Google Apps Script, with something like function onOpen(){ DocumentApp.getActiveDocument().setPrintLayout(false); }
(except setPrintLayout() does not seem to exist right now).
I'm mostly interested in the web browser version, and in the mobile app too (though less).
There's a similar question over there (with screenshots).
And there's a discussion dating back when switching off Print Layout in read-only Google Docs was not yet possible (it is, now, though only manually).
Hi I am frequenter of ilfehacker.com.au and many other sites who constantly put content I want on ten pages instead of one easy to read long page.
Is there any way to tell the site to show me all the pages one after the other in one continuous long page?
I was thinking a greesemonkey script maybe or some addon?
Many Thanks, Josh.
No, because there can only be 1 page per tab. You can write a firefox addon script that will detect whether you have scrolled to the bottom and than focus the browser on the the next tab and vice versa.
I'd like to be able to group tabs in Chrome (on Windows Vista/7 primarily), as I can with Tab Mix Plus on Firefox, so that I only see one group in the tab list at one time. I don't seem to be the only one, but it hasn't been done, so far as I can tell. There are plenty of tab managers out there, like TooManyTabs and Tab Outliner, which summarise, save and unload tabs, but they don't leave them loaded whilst hiding them.
I've not coded a Chrome extension before, but I think the specific problem is that you can't control the visibility of tabs (in the way you can with the hidden attribute of tabs in Firefox) or windows from a Chrome extension. Is that right, or have I missed something in the API?
If that is right, any way anyone can see to hack round this? Put the tabs I want invisible in a window and then use whatever Windows API allows http://www.hide-window.com/ to hide that window?
Per user feedback, I am opening a new question for this topic.
So I am currently using Struts-Menu to handle my menu needs for my Struts 2 J2EE application. It is not necessarily a package I wish to work with I have found by playing around with it. So what are some alternatives to this package? I immediately flocked to Struts-Menu because I saw a fair amount of web search traffic pointing to it, including those who use Struts2. What I am worried about is difficulty in the future of making it work with other packages, given its 2007 last update and the extra tap dance I had do to make it work with my configuration. It seems too fragile at this point for my taste.
I have several different menus in my app, but the one I am specifically addressing at the present is like this ... The top level menu drops down upon mouse hover over it. The submenus expand horizontally upon mouse hover. Exactly one menu item can be selected as no radio buttons or check boxes are contained in the menu. This particular menu does not require db access to populate its children. It works sort of like Velocity CoolMenus4 from the Struts-Menu demos.
I've never used struts-menu, but it looks like overkill to me.
I would recommend that you locate a menu that you like and then write a tag file to handle outputting it in your view layer. To me, that's a lot easier than using a framework or library just to output a menu. Plus, its specific to the actual menu you want to use. Your tag can handle doing security checks to ensure that the user only sees what they have permission to access, etc.
