My bluetooth connexion is reading only zeros



From my Android phone, I'm trying to read (using Bluetooth) incomming strings from an external GPS device. I've followed mainly the BluetoothChat example and everything seems to work as expected so far. My reading thread is executing and I can see variable bytes packets incoming when looping with the following code:







Log.d(TAG, "BEGIN mConnectedThread");

byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];

int bytes;

// Keep listening to the InputStream while connected

while (true)

{

try

{

bytes = mmInStream.read(buffer);



// Test...

String strReadBuf = new String(buffer, 0, bytes);



// Send the obtained bytes to the UI Activity

mHandler.obtainMessage(BluetoothHandler.MessageType.READ,

bytes, buffer).sendToTarget();

} catch (IOException e) {

Log.e(TAG, "disconnected", e);

sendErrorMessage(R.string.bt_connection_lost);

break;

}

}







The strings I'm supposed to read are text strings (NMEA format) but I'm reading only 0 and -32 bytes in my buffer array. Any idea why I'm getting this?

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
