There is one thing I hate and that is big companies with a department full of low grade lawyers trying to silence innocent members of the public when they try mentioning the truth.

This might ring some bells with the guys at Cardell Media.

Cardell Media were told off by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) to stop using a particular style of mailshot (aka junk mail) because it was misleading to UK consumers.

However UK regulations obviously don't mean much to US companies and it has been reported that they are still using the marketing technique. It involves trying to persuade people to visit a website by using a fake newspaper clipping and a fake post-it note.

If you are an HSBC customer you will already know that getting old statements out of the online banking system is a nightmare. You can download recent statements as CSV files but any statements considered "Previous" are not available for download.

You can view them on the screen but what if you want an electronic copy for your records?

It would be great if HSBC allowed you to download your statements as PDF files every month as American Express do.

So what can you do instead?

In APEX it is sometimes nice to disable a button once the user has clicked it. This can help prevent over enthusiastic users clicking the button more than once.

It is quite simple to do and you only have to paste a simple piece of JavaScript into the Button's "Button Display Attributes".
