I solved this by enabling PHP Extension: php_curl

Hope this help somebody.

This is because of the scroll bar on the right that appears or disappear depending on the length of your scrollbar.

All you have to do is edit your .css file and add the below:

/*Force scroll bar for short pages*/
HTML {
overflow-y:scroll;
overflow-x:auto;
}

I must admit I already had Joomla 1.6 installed. All I did was quickly create the first template suggestion Artiseer gave me > Exported as Zip file > Log into Joomla > Extension Manager > Upload package.

Before you set the template as default got to existing front end and add ?tp=1 to the url so you can see the div positions – Keep this window open!

Now change the template to the one you uploaded > Go to front end and add ?tp=1 to a new window so you can see the div positions… Compare the two

Now all you have to do is go to modules  > search / filter by positions > Replace the positions for the old template with that of the new. Remember to assign the modules to pages as well in Menu Assignment (Just below where you change the position)

Easy! Hope this helps someone.

So the issue in Joomla to view the pop-up calendar when you click on the icon is to edit  media/system/js/calendar.js file

Replace:

if(Calendar.is_ie){br.y+=document.body.scrollTop;br.x+=document.body.scrollLeft;}else{br.y+=window.scrollY;br.x+=window.scrollX;}

with:

if(Calendar.is_ie){br.y+=document.body.document.documentElement.scrollTop;br.x+=document.body.document.documentElement.scrollLeft;}

Now my calendar icon links work in IE7, IE8, IE9 and IE10

These instructions assume a moderate degree of experience working with your PC and are provided “as-is” for developers comfortable performing its steps.

Installing Windows XP Mode

1. Configure your PC’s BIOS for Hardware-Assisted Virtualization (HAV) by following the instructions here. HAV is not required but XP Mode will run much better if hardware-assisted virtualization can be enabled.
2. Navigate to the Download Windows XP Mode page. Choose your Windows 7 edition and language and then download, save, and run Windows XP Mode setup. Depending on the speed of your Internet connection, this can take up to an hour.
3. Return to the Download Windows XP Mode page, if needed choose your Windows 7 edition and language again, then download, save, and run Windows Virtual PC setup. You will need to restart your PC after this installation.
4. After restart, click the Windows 7 Start button, select All Programs > Windows Virtual PC > Windows XP Mode to begin first-time setup of the Windows XP Mode virtual machine. When first-time setup completes, you’ll find yourself in an XP Mode window with IE6 pre-installed.
5. Install an anti-virus program in the XP Mode virtual machine. Microsoft Security Essentials is free and works well with Windows XP Mode.
6. Install all the important and high priority updates except IE7 or IE8 using the Custom option of Window Update (this assumes you want this first virtual machine to stay with IE6). Since Windows Update will keep pushing either IE7 or IE8 on you, you should open each of these and choose “Don’t show this update again.”
7. Install any other software or utilities that you want available in the XP Mode virtual machine.

Once you’ve configured this first virtual machine, you can move onto copying it to create two more: one for IE7 and one for IE8. To do that, close all open applications then close your Windows XP Mode virtual machine. By default, the virtual machine will hibernate but that seems to be okay for the following steps.

Create a Second XP Mode Virtual Machine for IE7

Creating a second XP Mode virtual machine for IE7 is easier than setting up the first though the steps below are longer because they’re more complete. Briefly, all you need to do is copy the virtual hard disk file, create a new virtual machine using that hard disk file, rename the virtual computer, and use Windows Update to install IE7. Here are the steps in more detail:

1. Go to the folder where the virtual hard disk files are stored. These will be in the \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Virtual PC\Virtual Machines folder under your user account. To find this folder:
   • Use Windows 7 Start menu to open your root user folder (the user name link at the top of the right column of the Start menu)
   • If you don’t see AppData in the list of folders, you need to turn on viewing hidden files and folders:
     • Press the Alt key to display Windows Explorer’s menu
     • Choose Folder options… from the Tools menu
     • Select the View tab
     • Click the radio button for “Show hidden files, folders, and drives”
     • Click OK
   • Double-click the AppData folder, the Local folder, the Microsoft folder, the Windows Virtual PC folder, and, finally, the Virtual Machines folder. Here you should see three files all with the root name “Windows XP Mode”.
2. Select Windows XP Mode file with the type Virtual Machine Hard Drive Image (.vhd extension if you’re showing extensions). Press Ctrl-C to copy the file and then Ctrl-V to paste a copy of it. Copying the file may take a few minutes.
3. Select the file named “Windows XP Mode – Copy”, press F2 to rename the file, and change the word “Copy” to “IE7”. The resulting name should be “Windows XP Mode – IE7” (the actual name is not important; this is just the convention I’ve used).
4. Now navigate back to your top-level user folder and open the Virtual Machines folder.
5. Click “Create virtual machine” on the command bar. This starts a multi-step wizard to create a new virtual machine.
6. Name the machine “Windows XP Mode – IE7” and click Next and then Next again on the second screen.
7. On the third screen, choose “Use an existing virtual hard disk”, then browse down to the \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Virtual PC\Virtual Machines folder under your user account and select the “Windows XP Mode – IE7” virtual machine hard drive image file you created in step 3 above. Click Create.
8. Double-click your newly-created “Windows XP Mode – IE7” virtual machine. Log on using the password you used when you created the original Windows XP Mode machine.
9. Rename this “computer” so that it won’t conflict on the network if you run two virtual machines at the same time. In the running XP Mode virtual machine:
   • Click Start > My Computer
   • In the System Tasks panel, click View system information
   • Click the Computer Name tab
   • Click Change… to rename the computer
   • Change the computer name as you wish; I just change the last digit of the generated name
   • When prompted, restart the virtual machine to make this change
10. Start Windows Update and choose Custom. You should see something like this:
11. It’s somewhat tricky to get Windows Update to offer you IE7 because IE8 supersedes it. This sequence worked for me:
    • In the message box above, click “Restore them now”
    • Check Internet Explorer 8 for Windows XP and click “Restore and Check Again”
    • You’ll again see the “You’ve hidden important updates” message box. Click “Restore them now”
    • Check Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP and click “Restore and Check Again”
    • You’ll now see only Internet Explorer 8 for Windows XP because IE8 supersedes IE7 but there’ll be no message about hidden updates. Uncheck “Internet Explorer 8 for Windows XP” and click “Don’t show this update again”
    • Close Windows Update, restart it from the Start menu, and choose Custom
    • You’ll once again see the hidden update message but you should also have one High Priority update: Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP
    • Ensure IE7 is checked, click “Review and install updates,” and then “Install Updates”. This will take a while and restart your XP Mode virtual machine
12. After installing IE7, run Windows Update from the Start menu, choose Custom, and install the IE7 security updates. Windows Update will still tell you “You’ve hidden important updates.” That’s IE8, which we’ll install in a moment in a third XP Mode virtual machine
13. Shut down this virtual machine by selecting Close… from the Action menu and choosing Shut down in the drop down list

Create a Third XP Mode Virtual Machine for IE8

Creating a third XP Mode virtual machine for IE8 is even easier as we’ll start with the IE7 virtual machine hard disk image. The steps below assume you just completed the previous sequence and don’t repeat all the specific details.

1. Go to the folder where the virtual hard disk files are stored (the \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Virtual PC\Virtual Machines folder under your user account), make a copy of the “Windows XP Mode – IE7” virtual hard disk image, and rename it “Windows XP Mode – IE8”
2. Go to the Virtual Machines folder directly under your root user folder
3. Click “Create virtual machine” on the command bar
4. Name the new virtual machine “Windows XP Mode – IE8”, click Next, and Next again
5. On the third panel of the wizard, select “Use an existing virtual hard disk”, browse to the folder containing the IE8 virtual hard disk file from step 1, choose the file “Windows XP Mode – IE8”, and click Create
6. Double-click the newly created “Windows XP Mode – IE8” virtual machine
7. Sign on to the machine as “xpmuser” with the password you provided when you created the first XP Mode virtual machine
8. Follow the steps in item 9, above, to rename this new virtual computer
9. Run Windows Update from the Start menu and choose Custom
10. Click “Restore them now” in the “You’ve hidden important updates” message box, check Internet Explorer 8, and click “Restore and Check Again”
11. Under High-priority Updates, ensure that Internet Explorer 8 is checked, click “Review and install updates”, click “Install Updates”, and then reply to the various prompts as IE8 installs
12. Run Windows Update / Custom and install the offered security updates

Success

The process outlined above took me about 2-3 hours to complete with interruptions. When finished, I could run the three Windows XP Mode virtual machines simultaneously and access the Internet from each.

One thing I’ve noticed is that the two copies of the original XP Mode virtual machine do not auto-logon like the first. There also appear to be other domain security-related issues but nothing that stopped me from using these additional XP Mode virtual machines to test old versions of IE against Internet content. If the host PC is part of a corporate domain, you may want to join your XP Mode virtual machine to that domain and add your domain account as a local user on the XP Mode virtual machine.

If you care mostly about just one previous version of IE, updating the base Windows XP Mode virtual machine to that version may be a bit smoother than the procedure I’ve outlined here.

I have a dual language site using Joomfish. I wanted to translate the fields that are kept in the back end. I presume it will work for any of these fields that are stored in the backend / database.

In my case for example I wanted to translate “Position Type”

In order to do this I created an XML file (jgbobs_pos_type.xml) in: \administrator\components\com_joomfish\contentelements

The code inside the xml file is as follows:

Save it as: jbjobs_pos_type.xml

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<joomfish type="contentelement">
<name>JoomBah Jobs Position Type</name>
<author>JoomBah Team</author>
<version>1.0</version>
<description>Definition for JoomBah Jobs description</description>
<copyright>JoomBah.com(C) 2010 - 2011, All rights reserved.</copyright>
<reference type="content">
<table name="jbjobs_pos_type">
<field type="referenceid" name="id" translate="0">ID</field>
<field type="titletext" name="pos_type"  length="50" maxlength="100" translate="1">Position Type</field>
</table>
</reference>
</joomfish>

All you have to be concerned with from the above example is:

1. The table name you are trying to translate:
<table name=”[b]jbjobs_pos_type[/b]“>

2. The field name in the table you want to translate <field type=”titletext” [b]name=”pos_type”[/b]  length=”50″ maxlength=”100″ translate=”1″>Position Type</field>

Save / upload the file as I mentioned above.

Now. If you go to Joomfish > Translate > And choose the drop down on the right “Content Elements” you will see “JoomBah Jobs Position Type”.

Select it and make the translation and you are done.

Don’t make the mistake which I made and go to front end and think the text would have changed…You have to go to the job and edit it in your language. You will see that the field options have changed.

You can do this for all the variations

The Joombah team might have a better solution, but this worked for me.

Hope this helps.

.Pst files can be quite large, so it’s a good idea to make sure your backup location has plenty of room—and that you allow lots of time for an email backup to occur. After you’ve done that, just follow these steps to back up your Outlook content:

1. Open Outlook.
2. In Outlook 2010:
   Click the File tab, and in Backstage view, click Open, and then click Import.
3. In Outlook 2007:
   Click File, and then click Import and Export.
4. In the Choose an action to perform list, click Export to a File, and then click Next.
5. In the Create a file of type list, click Outlook Data File (.pst) in Outlook 2010 or Personal Folder (.pst) in Outlook 2007, and then click Next.
   
6. In the Select the folder to export from list, click the folder you want to export from, such as Inbox or Sent Items, and then click Next.
7. Browse to and select the location where you want to save the file. Remember, backups should be placed somewhere other than the original location of the source file. For example, if your source file is on your computer’s hard drive, you’ll want to save your backup file to an external source, like a CD or an external hard drive.
8. Choose the default setting Replace Duplicates with Items Exported.
9. Click Finish.
10. At any time, you can restore your file by importing it into Outlook.Note: If you want to just view or access something in your exported .pst file without importing it back into Outlook, you can simply open the .pst file.In Outlook 2010:
    Click the File tab and, in Backstage view, click Open, and then click Open Outlook Data File.In Outlook 2007:
    Click File, point to Open, and then click Outlook Data File.

In closing
See how quick and easy it is to protect yourself and your data from permanent loss? Backing up your data might take you a couple of extra minutes a few times a month, but you’ll be glad you took that time if an emergency ever happens.

In my case I wanted to remove the option to register (without disabling the ability to register from Global configuration.

Remove or comment the following:

<!-- remove below to remove the register now option -->

<!–<li>

<a href=”<?php echo JRoute::_( ‘index.php?option=com_user&view=register’ ); ?>”>

<?php echo JText::_(‘REGISTER’); ?></a>

</li> –>

I wanted to be able to add HTML and CSS Tags to my tooltips to format the tooltips as I wanted.

All you have to do is:

1. Open /administrator/components/com_jbjobs/controllers/jbjobs.php
2. Find $parent = ($post['type'] == 'group')? 0 : $post['parent'];
3. Add this below the above line:
$post['tips'] = JRequest::getVar('tips', '', 'post', 'string', JREQUEST_ALLOWRAW);

Thanks to the advice from Joombah
