Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Standalone utilities in DB2 are also known as offline utilities because they must be run when the subsystem is not active. They operate directly on data sets outside of DB2 control. Online utilities run while DB2 is active. 'Private' and 'Public' are not standard classifications.

Multiple choice technology web technology
  1. #contents=0

  2. #contents=1

  3. ?contents=1

  4. ?contents=0

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Adding ?contents=1 to a SharePoint page URL displays the page in a special diagnostic view that reveals all web parts. This mode shows web part zones, boundaries, and properties to help with debugging and page layout. The question mark (?) indicates it's a query string parameter, not a hash fragment (#) which points to page anchors.

  2. List all emails with specified details

  3. List all sent emails for users

  4. All are above

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Journal search in enterprise email systems is used to list all emails with specified details for compliance and auditing purposes. It does not list SMTP addresses or sent emails specifically, and 'All are above' is incorrect.

Multiple choice technology programming languages
  1. retain only the last page visited in the browser's history

  2. eliminate any flash caused by navigation

  3. Doesn't work with sites protected with SSL

  4. persist scroll position when moving from page to page

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

SmartNavigation was an ASP.NET 1.x feature that reduced page flash, persisted scroll position, and maintained focus. However, it had known limitations and did NOT work properly over SSL (HTTPS) connections due to how it handled page navigation. This is a documented limitation of the feature. The other options describe things SmartNavigation DID do (persist scroll position, eliminate flash), so they're incorrect as 'not true' statements. The answer correctly identifies the SSL limitation.

  4. Alphabetical, when names of items are known to users

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Alphabetical sequencing is ineffective when users do not know the names of the items, making this option the correct exception. Frequency, importance, and alphabetical sorting when names are known are all valid ways to sequence web page content.
