When you&#39;re dealing with a custom button you should set:

    button.TabStop = false;
    button.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Flat;
    button.FlatAppearance.BorderSize = 0;

Then since `ButtonBase` doesn&#39;t support the border color on `Color.Transparent`, you can overcome the issue by setting an Argb color:

    button.FlatAppearance.BorderColor = Color.FromArgb(0, 255, 255, 255); //transparent

fuex&#39;s answer can remove border in theory, but there is a bug that sometimes button will still have focus cue after you change the button enable status.

(I ran into this bug in .Net 4.0 and I don&#39;t know the bug is fixed or not in later versions). 

To work around this bug, you should disable the `ShowFocusCues` property:

    protected override bool ShowFocusCues =&gt; false; // return base.ShowFocusCues;
    

Only today I realized that I was missing this in my PHP scripts:

    mysql_set_charset(&#39;utf8&#39;);

All my tables are InnoDB, collation &quot;utf8_unicode_ci&quot;, and all my VARCHAR columns are &quot;utf8_unicode_ci&quot; as well. I have `mb_internal_encoding(&#39;UTF-8&#39;);` on my PHP scripts, and all my PHP files are encoded as UTF-8.

So, until now, every time I &quot;INSERT&quot; something with diacritics, example:

    mysql_query(&#39;INSERT INTO `table` SET `name`=&quot;J&#225;u&#242; I&#241;e&quot;&#39;);

The &#39;name&#39; contents would be, in this case: `J&#195;&#161;u&#195;&#178; I&#195;&#177;e`.  

Since I fixed the charset between PHP and MySQL, new INSERTs are now storing correctly. However, I want to fix all the older rows that are &quot;messed&quot; at the moment. I tried many things already, but it always breaks the strings on the first &quot;illegal&quot; character. Here is my current code:

    $m = mysql_real_escape_string(&#39;&#191;&lt;?php echo &quot;&#172;&lt;b&gt;\&#39;PHP &amp;aacute; (&#225;)ţări&#238;ş &lt;/b&gt;&quot;; ?&gt; ă-ţi abcdd;//;&#241;&#231;&#180;พดแทฝใจค&#231;ă&#226;ξβψδπλξξςαยน&#241; ;&#39;);
	mysql_set_charset(&#39;utf8&#39;);
	mysql_query(&#39;INSERT INTO `table` SET `name`=&quot;&#39;.$m.&#39;&quot;&#39;);
	mysql_set_charset(&#39;latin1&#39;);
	mysql_query(&#39;INSERT INTO `table` SET `name`=&quot;&#39;.$m.&#39;&quot;&#39;);
	mysql_set_charset(&#39;utf8&#39;);
	
	$result = mysql_iquery(&#39;SELECT * FROM `table`&#39;);
	while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
		$message = $row[&#39;name&#39;];
		$message = mb_convert_encoding($message, &#39;ISO-8859-15&#39;, &#39;UTF-8&#39;);
		//$message = iconv(&quot;UTF-8&quot;, &quot;ISO-8859-1//IGNORE&quot;, $message);
		mysql_iquery(&#39;UPDATE `table` SET `name`=&quot;&#39;.mysql_real_escape_string($message).&#39;&quot; WHERE `a1`=&quot;&#39;.$row[&#39;a1&#39;].&#39;&quot;&#39;);
	}

It &quot;UPDATE&quot;s with the expected characters, except that the string gets truncated after the character &quot;ă&quot;. I mean, that character and following chars are not included on the string.

Also, testing with the &quot;iconv()&quot; (that is commented on the code) does the same, even with //IGNORE and //TRANSLIT

I also tested several charsets, between ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-15.

Convert latin1 characters on a UTF8 table into UTF8

Yes, I have googled this question and even referred to my textbook (PHP by Don Gosselin) but I seriously can&#39;t seem to understand the explanation.

From my understanding:

&gt; echo = shows the final result of a function
&gt; 
&gt; return = returns the value from a function

I applied both `echo` and `return` in the following functions I can&#39;t see the difference or the &#39;effectiveness&#39; of using `return` instead of `echo`.

    &lt;?php
    echo &quot;&lt;h1 style=&#39;font-family:Helvetica; color:red&#39;&gt;Using &lt;em&gt;echo&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&quot;;
    function add1($x, $y){
    	$total = $x + $y;
    	echo $total;
    }
    echo &quot;&lt;p&gt;2 + 2 = &quot;, add1(2, 2), &quot;&lt;/p&gt;&quot;;
    
    echo &quot;&lt;h1 style=&#39;font-family:Helvetica; color:red&#39;&gt;Using &lt;em&gt;return&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&quot;;
    function add2($x, $y){
    	$total = $x + $y;
    	return $total;
    }
    echo &quot;&lt;p&gt;2 + 2 = &quot;, add2(2, 2), &quot;&lt;/p&gt;&quot;;
    
    ?&gt;

Both display the result!
What am I not understanding?

I&#39;m having a problem with a custom button I have created in c# win forms.. The button appears fine when the form is selected but as soon as I click away from the form a border appears on the button. A good example of when this happens is when the desktop is clicked but the form is still maximised so you can see its contents. An image of the problem can be seen below:

![Button border problem][1]

This does not happen on all buttons, only when the button has been clicked prior (only appears on one button at a time). This lead me to believe that it was something to do with the button focus cues but these are set to false. The border is set to 0 and I also have tabstop set to false.


Any suggestions?

I am really confused with the real meaning of the static keyword in C#. I have gone through different articles on internet but none of them are really helping me to understand it&#39;s meaning and other sources are not trusted. I know Stack Overflow has some brilliant minds who can help me understand the real meaning of static like

 - When they get initialized.
 - static methods, properties, classes and constructors
 - Static vs readonly vs constant

What does `static` mean in c#?

I have a 3rd party C++ DLL that I call from C#.

The methods are static.

I want to abstract it out to do some unit testing so I created an interface with the static methods in it but now my program errors with:


&gt;  The modifier &#39;static&#39; is not valid for this item
    
    MyMethod cannot be accessed with an instance reference; qualify it with a type name instead

How can I achieve this abstraction?

My code looks like this

    private IInterfaceWithStaticMethods MyInterface;
    
    public MyClass(IInterfaceWithStaticMethods myInterface)
    {
      this.MyInterface = myInterface;
    }
    
    public void MyMethod()
    {
      MyInterface.StaticMethod();
    }

How can I implement static methods on an interface?

My program calls Java and then redirects stdout to a `RichTextBox`. My problem is that the vertical scrollbar always stays at the top of the box every time data is written.

Even if you scroll to the bottom, once new data has been written it goes to the top.  I would like the opposite.

So when new data is written, it stays at the bottom. How can I do this?

Is it possible to show row number in the row header of a `DataGridView`?        

I&#39;m trying with this code, but it doesn&#39;t work:

            foreach (DataGridViewRow row in dgv.Rows)
            {
                row.HeaderCell.Value = row.Index + 1;
            }
        }

Show row number in row header of a DataGridView

I have tried making (my first) a C# program:

    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Text;

    namespace ConsoleApplication1
    {
        class Program
        {
            static void Main(string[] args)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(&quot;hello&quot;);
                Console.ReadLine();
            }
        }
    }

This goes well, but if I try using System.Windows.Forms:

    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Text;
    using System.Windows.Forms;

    namespace ConsoleApplication1
    {
        class Program
        {
            static void Main(string[] args)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(&quot;hello&quot;);
                System.MessageBox(&quot;hello&quot;);
                Console.ReadLine();
            }
        }
    }

This is the error I get:

Some details:
- I am using Visual Studio 2012;
- I have installed the .NET Development Kit;
- It is a Console Application.

Maybe it&#39;s because on a Console Application can&#39;t use System.Windows.Forms?
If so, what program should be? I also have tried with a form, but I was only displaying a window and no code.

I have a HTML form where I use several buttons. The problem is that no matter which button I  click, the form will get submitted even if the button is not of type &quot;submit&quot;. e.g. Buttons like :`&lt;button&gt;Click to do something&lt;/button&gt;`, result in form submission.

It&#39;s quite painful to do an `e.preventDefault()` for each one of these buttons.

I use jQuery and jQuery UI and the website is in HTML5.

Is there a way to disable this automatic behavior?

I am developing an application that when the button is pressed, it opens a dialog with OK and Cancel buttons.

It works fine.

When the user presses the back button, I am handling this as follows

    public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) 
    {
        if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK)) 
    	{
    	
    	}
     return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
    }

But the above method is not called. How can I handle this?

Twitter-Bootstrap buttons are awesomely beautiful. [Try them out by scrolling over them][1]


![bootstrap button screenshot][2]


But they are limited in colors. 


Is there any way I could change the base color of the button while keeping the beautiful hover-over effect that bootstrap has made so beautiful and effortless?

I am completely unaware of what the css/javascript looks like that twitter uses to maintain those effects.

Attempting to use a custom hex color for my css triangle (border). However since it uses border properties I am unsure how to go about doing this. I would like to steer clear of javascript and css3 simply because of compatibility. I am trying to have the triangle have a white background with a 1px border (around the angled sides of the triangle) with color #CAD5E0. Is this possible? Here&#39;s what I have so far:

    .container {
        margin-left: 15px;
        width: 200px;
        background: #FFFFFF;
        border: 1px solid #CAD5E0;
        padding: 4px;
        position: relative;
        min-height: 200px;
    }

    .container:after {
        content: &#39;&#39;;
        display: block;
        position: absolute;
        top: 10px;
        left: 100%;
        width: 0;
        height: 0;
        border-color: transparent transparent transparent #CAD5E0;

CSS triangle custom border color

I have a `&lt;div&gt;` element and I want to put a border on it.  I know I can write `style=&quot;border: 1px solid black&quot;`, but this adds 2px to either side of the div, which is not what I want.  

I would rather have this border be -1px from the edge of the div. The div itself is 100px x 100px, and if I add a border, then I have to do some mathematics to make the border appear.

Is there any way that I can make the border appear, and ensure the box will still be 100px (including the border)?
