Every user on Mac OS X has a short name. To list all of the short names on your Mac OS, you can run the following command inside Terminal:

'ls /Users/'


For me the command looks like:
find /Users/brian/ -exec sudo chmod +a# 0 ‘staff allow add_file,add_subdirectory,list,search,readattr,delete,delete_child, writeattr,writeextattr,file_inherit,directory_inherit’ ‘{}’ ‘;’

I come from Windows environment, and will all the great things said about Apple, I can’t believe “sharing” a folder with other users on the same computer is so complicated that it requires some crazy line of code. Why simply turning on “sharing” on the folder, which is an option, doesn’t work at all is beyond me.

Sorry for the late reply, some idiot decided I would look good on their car bonnet. You can find the link here http://www.flasharcadegamessite.com

What I’ve done is stuck all my javascript into one file (j15.js) with the ad delay code at the top, ad delay works but one occasion when you traverse the back and forward pages the divs seem to swap around and the ads swaps places with each other.

thanks

I wonder how they would auto-check add placement. I would implement such a feature by parsing the web page, locating the ad code, then assigning a score based on the html before and after the ad code. It seems that the ad agencies are more likely to score deliver ads based solely on click though rate, and I wonder if it isn’t just a marketing ploy to get webmasters to place their ads higher on their pages.

This is a great article!

Just curious why something as simple as the following can’t be used (apologize if it did not paste well). I tried this on a test page http://www.keepbusy.net/about.php and it seems to perform with no issues.

function toggleAd(div1, div2)
{
document.getElementById(div1).innerHTML = document.getElementById(div2).innerHTML;
document.getElementById(div2).innerHTML = ”;
}

toggleAd(‘leaderboard’,'leaderboard2′);
toggleAd(‘mediumRectangleAd’,'mediumRectangleAd2′);
toggleAd(‘skyscraperAd’,'skyscraperAd2′);

Also, some Ad Networks auto-check Ad Placement (I’m assuming with javascript as the Ad loads), and I’m assuming these will be recorded as “below the fold” so I’m hesitant to implement side-wide. Any suggestions?

Thanks!!

I get odd behaviour when I click on the firefox browsers forward and backwards button the ads seem to swap places. Any ideas what may be causing it?

thanks

I didn’t see your comment at the foot of the article until today when I noticed the link to the comments at the beginning of the article. So this is a snippet of what I did

Ad1
Javascript Code

Ad2
Javascript Code

Ad3
Javascript Code

And then at the bottom I had

adDelay.swapOut(‘Ad1holder’,'Ad1′);adDelay.swapOut(‘Ad2holder’,'Ad2′);adDelay.swapOut(‘Ad3holder’,'Ad3′);

As for the ad delay code rather than placing this in the footer I put this in a asynchronous js code called within the head of the document.

Process the ads individually. What I mean is place a swapout call after each script, and don’t call two script tags without calling swapout to the first. If you don’t both scripts are fully loaded before either ad is displayed.

Thank you for the code.

How would would go about using the above code to insert more than one ad from say different networks.?

cheers
