ugh, libxml, libxslt... I remember having to scream bloody murder when KDE's documentation team wanted to bring all that in. It was such a hassle even in a Unix environment, having to install so many particular things that all had to be configured just so.

Listen to tyler_cracker. Use other libraries.

And to be clear, I'm not even necessarily saying to get rid of xml. I'm just saying you don't have to use that big, old, complex C assortment of libraries for nitty by the book validating XML parsing.

There have to be alternatives for XML parsing.

Does anybody have any idea what this icon means on a cell phone main screen (ie: displayed where you see the ringer on/off, vibrate on/off, bluetooth on/off, new voicemail, etc, etc symbols):



I figured out all but this one (Chinese watch phone manual = lol), but this one has me stumped (it's not new text message or voicemail as those are different icons and I've tried turning on/off all sorts of settings to see if it can change it - it does look a little like an envelope though so must be something to do with them...).

Strange combo of colours. Could it possibly be something like "multi-part message"

Probably means you dropped your phone one too many times.
edit: never mind that does actually look like an envelope... with an antenna.

Hehe sorry for the bad paint drawing

Been looking on google image search and found the same icon is in this image:

Nah, but it may be something that helps the dilithium crystals last a bit longer if it's turnoffable...

Maybe an open lock?

Yeah I think you guys have it! It's so low res on this phone that it's hard to tell, but on that picture it does look much more like an open lock (which would make sense as it apparently means an unencrypted connection - I'll have to see if it goes away when I'm near a different tower, etc).

python sqlite3 quesiton here. if i have a table with 3 fields, and i have this information stored in

data1 = ["yo", 3]
data2 = 4

what is the proper way to put it in?

i know i can do it as c.execute("insert into the_table values(?,?,?)", (data1[0], data1[1], data2)) but i'd rather do it without having to enter EACH PIECE of the array...

Normalize your data and design your tables accordingly.

You could probably just do it like so:

Code:
c.execute("insert into the_table values(?,?,?)", data1+[data2])

I think its suppose to represent a mailbox with the little flag thing up - so new email or something?

Edit: Or maybe you have an unread/unlistened to email,text,voicemail?

do you know what PATH does? if not, it's an important thing to understand.

now that you've added it, what happens now when you type "python setup.py thing"? (or just "python", if you're not trying to setup.py the thing anymore.)
