r - Error when building regression model using lm ( Error in `contrasts<-`(`*tmp*`... contrasts can be applied only to factors with 2 or more levels) -


i error depending on variables include , sequence in specify them in formula:

error in `contrasts<-`(`*tmp*`, value = contr.funs[1 + isof[nn]]) :    contrasts can applied factors 2 or more levels

i've done little research on , looks caused variable in question not being factor variable. in case (is_women_owned), factor variable 2 levels ("yes", "no").

> levels(customer_accounts$is_women_owned) [1] "no"  "yes"

no error:

f1 <- lm(combined_sales ~ is_women_owned, data=customer_accounts)

no error:

f2 <- lm(combined_sales ~ total_assets + market_value + total_empl + empl_growth + sic + city + revenue_growth + revenue + net_income + income_growth, data=customer_accounts)

regressing on above formula plus factor variable "is_women_owned":

f3 <- lm(combined_sales ~ total_assets + market_value + total_empl + empl_growth + sic + city + revenue_growth + revenue + net_income + income_growth + is_women_owned, data=customer_accounts)  error in `contrasts<-`(`*tmp*`, value = contr.funs[1 + isof[nn]]) :    contrasts can applied factors 2 or more levels

i same error when applying stepwise linear regression, expect.

this seems bug, should give model "is_women_owned" perhaps offers no additional explanatory value because highly correlated other variables, not error out this.

i verified there no missing data variable, too:

> which(is.na(customer_accounts$is_women_owned)) integer(0)

also, there 2 values present in factor variable:

customer_accounts$is_women_owned[1:20]  [1] no  no  no  no  no  no  no  no  no  no  no  no  no  no  yes no  [17] no  no  no  no  levels: no yes 

twofac = data.frame("y" = c(1,2,3,4,5,1), "x" = c(2,56,3,5,2,1), "f" = c("apple","apple","apple","apple","apple","banana")) onefac = twofac[1:5,]  lm(y~x+f,data=twofac) lm(y~x+f,data=onefac)  > str(onefac) 'data.frame':   5 obs. of  3 variables:  $ y: num  1 2 3 4 5  $ x: num  2 56 3 5 2  $ f: factor w/ 2 levels "apple","banana": 1 1 1 1 1 > str(twofac) 'data.frame':   6 obs. of  3 variables:  $ y: num  1 2 3 4 5 1  $ x: num  2 56 3 5 2 1  $ f: factor w/ 2 levels "apple","banana": 1 1 1 1 1 2 > lm(y~x+f,data=twofac)  call: lm(formula = y ~ x + f, data = twofac)  coefficients: (intercept)            x      fbanana       3.30783     -0.02263     -2.28519    > lm(y~x+f,data=onefac) error in `contrasts<-`(`*tmp*`, value = contr.funs[1 + isof[nn]]) :    contrasts can applied factors 2 or more levels

if run above notice twofac, model 2-level factor both factors present, run no problem. onefac, model same 2-level factor 1 level present, gives same error got.

if factor has 1 of levels regressing against factor gives no additional information constant across responsevariables

css - Make div keyboard-scrollable in jQuery Mobile? -

from can tell, although jquery-mobile-powered pages can contain divs overflow set scroll or auto, , these divs can scrolled one-screen bar or mouse wheel, cannot scrolled using arrow keys, page-up/page-down, or home/end. instead, official "page" div (with data-role="page") absorbs input. perhaps other divs can't acquire focus, i'm not sure. is there way around this? edit: jsfiddle of simple example: https://jsfiddle.net/qogz0shx/ <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquerymobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile.min.js"> </script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.css"/> <style> #outer { overflow:scroll; height: 50vh; width: 50vw; } #inner { height: 500vh; width: 500vw; } ...
