How can I create a ListView with fixed header and footer? I don't want the header/footer to scroll with the items in the ListView . Is it possible that the header/footer is floating over the ListView so that the header/footer dont need to have a straight bottom/top background and the ListView items scrolls below the background of the header/footer view, but still show the first element of the list? I solved it by using @blackbelt suggestion and a small ImageView with the source image being transparant with a tile background. <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res

Is there a way to hide the quite large status bar cluttering the bottom of the eclipse window ? (where the heap status, line and column count and further non-essential info is shown). I am forced to work on a tiny screen here so I already have the fullscreen plugin installed and hide the regular toolbar per default, but a few more pixels would definitely help ease the pain of a 4:3 19". rdok I found another solution in my research of using the eclipse dark color theme: http://i.stack.imgur.com/3heiL.png Solution requires to edit css of eclipse.

Does anybody have any experience writing a custom Wordpress login page using the functions: wp_signon() and wp_set_auth_cookie() found on http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/ I can't seem to get them working. The code looks something like this: function login_wordpress($username, $password) { $creds = array(); $creds['user_login'] = $username; $creds['user_password'] = $password; $creds['remember'] = true; $user = wp_signon( $creds, false ); if ( is_wp_error($user) ) { echo $user->get_error_message(); die(); } else { wp_set_auth_cookie( $user, 0, 0); } } Am I missing something basic?

I've a TabWidget , independently of the ÀctionBar , in a FragmentTabHost`. I want to customize the look and feel of the TabWidget but I don't get it. My intention is to change the text color and the selector color, as you can see in the image I can change the background of the TabWidget . I don't want to use a custom TextView for the tabs because the tabs must be with the Holo look and feel. I've tried to put a style to the TabWidget but it doesn't work. In this way: <TabWidget android:id="@android:id/tabs" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android

Is there any good articles that explain custom form fields in django, not custom model fields? I couldn't find any through google. Form fields are easy to customize: class UpperCaseField(forms.CharField): def clean(self, value) try: return value.upper() except: raise ValidationError basically you just create a class that inherits from the field that most resembles what you want, then rewrite the clean() method so that it returns the value you want. Here is another example: class MyObjectField(forms.ModelChoiceField): # in this case, 'value' is a string representing # the primary key of a
