If you're asked to print the page from your browser, then a screenshot isn't waht is required.

If the background images don't show, this doesn't matter as from your HTML code the examiner will see if your stylesheet is correctly linked.

This page with the exam papers provided by CIE also has links for the files required for each exam.

That's all I can give you - sorry!

Yes... exams are all done for this session. The forums will be a lonely place until the next round of exams.

I think the ICT practicals and theory exams for mayjune session have ended.
Therefore, now the candidates will be waiting for their results. They have already given the exams, so why should anyone post questions

Where is evrybody? :/

But it's like asking what are the advantages of apples over oranges! It all depends what you're after - they're different fruit, and in some situations one might be preferable. But unless you know the situation you can't say.

You can compare features... but advantages/disadvantages implies that one is better than the other in some way - Blogs and wikis are different things, used in different situations.

Re: Describe four features that would help a user navigate..

Not really...

A window is not a navigation feature... it's an area of the screen that can display something!

And a pointer is something that you use to select things - applications, files, data, etc.

and sir if they ask us about advantages and disadvantages of blog over wikis?????

Can we say:
ADV
1- can only be edited by the author.
2- can be useful to find people's opinion about something.

DISADV
1- can usually find mistakes.
2- cannot be used as a source for gathering information as it might be biased.
3- only has external links.

ARE THESE RIGHT??? AND WHAT CAN WE ADD MORE????

Sir, aren't windows, icons, menus and pointers examples of navigation features?

The range check is appropriate for the individual fields of the date: day (1-31), month (1-12) and year (1900-2012)
The description check just means the same thing as the format check
Your suggestion of a character check is not very clear... Better to say a type check, since the data entered must be of the type date.

I see. Thanks for the reply!

Re: 14.3 (a) search to select subsets of data (b) sort data

2012-05-10T19:12:06Z

Yes... You need to Google 'Filtering'... Excel uses filters to find subsets of data (in the same way that Access uses queries)

Specifically, search for how to use the 'Autofilter' feature... It's pretty easy.

I will add these to the guides some day!
