How to tell if sp1 for BizTalk 2004 has been installed already
From what I've been able to determine, the quickest way is to fire up regedit and check if the following key exists. If it does, then sp1 has been installed.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\BizTalk Server\3.0\SP1
Tallan Press Release - Evolution Benefits
http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/050209/95077_1.html
Evolution Benefits addresses the main problem I have with Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) - how to get reimbursed. Right now, the process involves paying twice (through payroll deduction and again at point-of-service), saving and submitting receipts, completing and mailing claim forms, waiting for reimbursement and cashing checks.
This is done by providing a debit card that deducts from your FSA or HSA account whenever you need to make a copay or deductible/coinsurance payment.

Hiding and showing rows in IE and Mozilla/FireFox
One issue that a web developer may run into is how to toggle hiding/showing a row in an HTML table using JavaScript that works in both sets of browsers: Internet Explorer and Mozilla/FireFox/Netscape. In IE, you can set the style.display to "none" for the row, but this doesn't work in Mozilla.
One approach that woks in both browsers is to dynamically assign the class for the row using the following css styles:
<style>
.hide {display: none;}
.show {display: table-row;}
</style>
And here is the entire html for a test page that demonstrates using this approach....

var myBody;
function start() {
// get a list of all the body elements (there will only be one)
myDocumentElements=document.getElementsByTagName("body");
// the body element itself is the first item of the list
myBody=myDocumentElements.item(0);
}
function hideRow() {
mytable=myBody.getElementsByTagName("table").item(0);
mytablebody=mytable.getElementsByTagName("tbody").item(0);
myrow=mytablebody.getElementsByTagName("tr").item(0);
myrow.className="hide";
}
