Methods and arrangements to control pop-up windows are contemplated. Embodiments include transformations, code, state machines or other logic to deny focus to a pop-up window that is generated within a pop-up delay interval of input activity on the part of a user. In some embodiments, the pop-up delay interval may be a default value such as ten seconds. In other embodiments, the pop-up delay interval is configurable. In some embodiments, the pop-up window may be granted focus after the user ceases input activity for the pop-up delay interval. In some embodiments, the pop-up window may be displayed without focus. Some of these embodiments may modify the region of the screen in which the pop-up window is displayed. In some embodiments, the pop-up window may be displayed in a portion of the screen that does not overlap with the portion of the window that does have focus. In some embodiments, the user may be notified that a pop-up window was displayed without focus. In some embodiments, the user may disable the denial of focus to pop-up windows. In some embodiments, the user may exempt classes of pop-up windows from the denial of focus.

A brick apparatus for use with a mobile computer includes a chassis having a connection panel and means for attaching the connection panel to a connection panel of the mobile computer. A power transformer is located within the chassis to produce a DC signal from an AC input. A retractable power cord of the brick is connected at one end to the transformer and connectable at a second end to an AC outlet. A DC power pin connected to the DC signal of the power transformer is positioned to engage a DC power jack of the mobile computer when the apparatus is attached to the mobile computer panel. The apparatus may further include a retractable locking cable and retractable network connections. The apparatus may include pass through connectors to provide external access to connectors of the mobile computer rear panel and a battery to provide power to the mobile computer.

The invention concerns a method and apparatus for indicating a parameter of a transmitted fluid. One embodiment of the invention comprises a fluid source operatively coupled to a conduit for transmitting a fluid from the fluid source. In addition, a sensor detects a parameter of the fluid, such as the percent oxygen content of the fluid. In response to the sensor detecting the parameter of the fluid, an indicator illuminates a portion of the conduit if a predetermined condition, such as a minimum percent oxygen content of the fluid, is satisfied.

摘要:
The present invention allows the user (author or creator) of a document to specify that certain portions of a document be selected for encryption while other portions of the document remain displayed as created. In addition, each encrypted section could have multiple encryption keys such that some viewers can review certain parts of the document while other viewers will not have that same access. The user could employ a standard word processing editor technique to highlight (or swipe) portions of a document that the user desires to be encrypted. The highlighted portion would then be ‘tagged’ with a surrounding attribute indicating to the word processor that this highlighted portion of the document is to be encrypted. The highlighted sections would also have encryption keys associated with the highlighted and encrypted section. Any one of the encryption keys for that section would decrypt that section. With proper authorization, any encrypted portion of a document would be displayed as part of the document. Without proper authorization, the display of the document would only contain the unencrypted portions of the document.
