[Prototype][1] also has nice functions to move around in the DOM. In your example something like the following would do the trick:

Your problem here may be distinguishing between noise words and useful data:
* Rolling_Stones.Best_of_2003.Wild_Horses.mp3

You may need to produce a dictionary of noise words to ignore. That seems clunky, but I'm not sure there's an algorithm that can ... |
If you are using `FREETEXTTABLE` then it returns a column name `Rank`, so `order by Rank` should work. I don't know if other freetext search methods are also returning this value or not. You can have a try. |

As usual, one of the trickiest aspects of Tablet development is deployment:

How can I test that my Linq IQueryable has executed |

I am currently using Linq to NHibernate (although that is not an issue with regards to this question) to execute queries against my database and I want to be able to test whether the current IQueryable result instance has been executed or not.

The font is fixed width and height, so making a background bitmap dynamically isn't difficult, and is probably the quickest and easiest solution. In fact, if you size it correctly there will only be one stretched pixel per character.
Color the pixel (or pixels) according to the background of the character.

Typically, the only reference to Pimpl class in the header for the Owner class (Cat in this case) would be a forward declaration, as you have done here, because that can greatly reduce the dependencies.
For example, if your Pimpl class has ComplicatedClass as a member (and not just a pointer or reference to it) then... |
Also note that you cannot serialize user interface controls and that any object you want to pass onto the clipboard must be serializable otherwise it cannot be passed across to other processes. |
You don't need to even have the count in the returned columns if you don't need to know the actual number of duplicates. e.g.

The one topic that no one has yet mentioned as a benefit of stored procedures is security.

Both FlexBuilder and Flash CS3 have autocompletion and debuggers that can step through code one line at a time. Both can be used to develop in pure ActionScript (i.e. FlexBuilder isn't just for writing Flex applications). |

In my opinion this is a bug. The problem is that there are two different types of "absolute" paths.

The correct behavior, in my opinion, would be to prepend the drive ... |
