How to burn files to a CD or DVD using windows 7/8

CD Discs can be used in any computer with a CD or DVD drive, whereas DVD discs can only be read by a computer with a DVD drive installed. Most modern computers have a dual purpose drive installed which is capable of reading and writing to both CD and DVD discs.
Format Options
Windows 7 has a new disc format known as Live File System, this allows you to Save, Edit and Erase files on your CD in much the same way as you work with a USB stick. Files are immediately copied to the disc without the need to create a file list and select a Burn option. The CD will be compatible with computers running the Windows XP operating system and later operating systems. The disc will not work on Windows versions older than XP and devices such as CD and DVD players. If the disc is to be used on computers running a version of Windows older than XP or in CD and DVD player devices, then the Mastered format must be used to create the disc to ensure that it will be readable. Disc creation using the Mastered format is rather like working with a more traditional CD burning program, in that you select the files to be burnt and then burn them to the disc. See the last section of this guide to find out more about the various types of disc and their limitations.

 Copying Files to a CD using the Live File System
The following instructions explain how to burn files to a CD on a computer running Windows 7 and have the CD remain in a state where files can be burnt to it again on future occasions until the CD is full. This is known as Multi Session CD Burning. The instructions also apply to burning to a DVD disc. Insert a writable blank CD or DVD into the computer’s CD/DVD drive. On our modern all in one style computers you will find the drive mounted vertically on the right hand side of the computer.

A dialog box opens on the desktop listing various options, select Burn files to disc.

The Burn a Disc dialog box appears, note that the Like a USB flash drive option is selected by default, enter a title for your disc and click Next, the disc will now be formatted.
The AutoPlay dialog box appears, click on Open folder to view files.

A window appears displaying your available drives and network folder locations on the left, your target CD is listed in this area as DVD RW Drive (D:) When your target DVD RW Drive (D:) is selected an empty folder is displayed on the right into which you drag or copy files to be burnt to your CD. Files are automatically burnt to your CD when copied to this folder. You can also copy files to the CD by dragging them and dropping them on to the DVD RW Drive (D:) icon in the left section.

Ejecting your CD
When you have finished copying files to your disc it can be ejected from the drive by pressing the drive’s eject button or by right clicking on DVD RW Drive (D:) in the left hand pane and selecting Eject from the menu.
When you eject your CD, the system prompts you to wait until the session is closed before ejecting. Closing the session enables the disc to be used on other computers.

Adding more Files to the CD
Load the CD, as the CD is already formatted the AutoPlay dialog box appears, click on Open folder to view files.
A window appears listing files on the CD, add new files to this list, they are automatically burnt to the CD.
Deleting Files
Files are easily deleted from the CD by clicking the file name and selecting Delete from the drop down menu.

Trip to narsipura Sri Vaidya Narayana murthy - Shimago for cancer treatment

Hi friends. I would like to share my experience about my trip to Shimago and meet Guru Narayana murthy who would treat for cancer, diabetics, kidney diseases. My brother was diagnosed with rectal cancer on October 2014. The news of cancer to a young boy of 26 years shook our whole family. But we are strong as he was getting treatment from world class care clinic in Cleveland - Cleveland clinic, Ohio, USA. As fate had other plans, his cancer came in January, 2017 back after an extensive surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The doctors made a decision to keep him in hospice care: support for advanced illness. They said that there is no more treatment and only to keep him comfortable as long as he lives, we lost our hopes and that is when we thought of giving a try to Ayurvedic medicine. We found Guruji narasipura narayana murthy. His medicine gave us hopes and I recently went to narsipura to get the medicine. I thought it would be best to give my share of experience in reaching the

Solution to "child margin affects parent" in CSS

The browser implementation is that when the parent has no content and the child requests for margin, the parent is brought down instead of child going down. The solution for these are listed below with their side effects. floats , You  have  to float elements border-top , This pushes the parent at least 1px downwards which should then be adjusted with introducing  -1px  margin to the parent element itself. This can create problems when parent already has  margin-top  in relative units. padding-top , same effect as using  border-top overflow: hidden , Can't be used when parent should display overflowing content, like a drop down menu overflow: auto , Introduces scrollbars for parent element that has (intentionally) overflowing content (like shadows or tool tip's triangle) See the Pen Relative with Margin by Manikanta ( @immnk ) on CodePen .

Redirection in javascript

How Page Re-direction works ? Example 1: This is very simple to do a page redirect using JavaScript at client side. To redirect your site visitors to a new page, you just need to add a line in your head section as follows: <head> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- window.location="http://www.newlocation.com"; --> </script> </head> To understand it in better way you can  Try it yourself . Example 2: You can show an appropriate message to your site visitors before redirecting them to a new page. This would need a bit time delay to load a new page. Following is the simple example to implement the same: <head> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- function Redirect() { window.location="http://www.newlocation.com"; } document.write("You will be redirected to main page in 10 sec."); setTimeout('Redirect()', 10000); //--> </script> </head> Here
