20120211182 | Safety Gate - A safety gate has a frame with spaced apart top and bottom assemblies and spaced apart side assemblies in a deployed configuration. The top and bottom assembly length is extendable and retractable between the opposed side assemblies. A flexible barrier is connected to the frame. A one-way jack mechanism can be carried on each of the top and bottom assemblies. The length of the assemblies can be extended without actuating the jack mechanisms to adjust the frame to nearly fit a space between two surfaces. The jack mechanisms, when actuated, incrementally further extend the top and bottom assemblies so the frame interferingly fits between the two surfaces under compression. The frame can be reconfigurable between a compact configuration and the deployed configuration. The side assemblies can include latches that lock the frame in the deployed configuration. | 08-23-2012 |

20090077123 | METHOD FOR MANAGING KEYBOARD NAVIGATION WITHIN A TREE CONTROL STRUCTURE USER INTERFACE COMPONENT VIA A LINKED LIST - A method, data processing system and computer program product for maintaining/updating managing keyboard navigation using a linked list. In particular, a Dynamic Tree Control Linkage (DTCL) utility creates a doubly linked list with list nodes having assigned values based on a tree control structure UI component. Each list node of the doubly linked list corresponds to a visible tree item of the tree structure UI component. Responding to a keyboard event signal, the DTCL utility finds a current list node corresponding to a first current tree item. The DTCL utility finds a next (i.e. previous or subsequent) list node corresponding to a next tree item. The DTCL utility detects a list node exists. The DTCL utility detects whether the next list node is associated with a null value. When the next list node is associated with a non-null value, the next tree item is identified. The DTCL utility returns an identification of the next tree item representing a second current tree item. The DTCL utility also updates the doubly linked list in response to the expansion/collapsion of the current list item. The DTCL utility avoids the need to number all tree items (both visible and hidden tree items) sequentially by adding list node(s) to or removing list node(s) from the linked list to represent the visible tree items. | 03-19-2009 |
