He has added a lot more to this than what was in the initial submission - I think that was only the Introduction and the first two code blocks. When I asked, I was actually wondering if it was even worth posting as an Alternative since it could just as well have been contained within a message in the Article's forum. Anyway, thanks for replying.

I can't understand your policy. Sorry, If you don't like this. Thanks, Pradip Sharma Re: Add Article Sean Ewington25-Sep-14 4:48 Sean Ewington 25-Sep-14 4:48  Thanks very much for your inquiry. The process you are looking for is this: Code Project Article FAQ[^] However, these also may be of use to you.

If i select 'view' on 'You have a new version in the works. Would you like to view or edit it?', the article overflows the page width - not in general but after the chapter 'XrwBox'. If i select 'edit' on 'You have a new version in the works. Would you like to view or edit it?', the editor shows the table (New properties) of chapter 'XrwConstraint' but doesn't show any of the tables in subsequent chapters. Moreover the formatting gets completely corrupted (chapter 'XrwPropertyGrid' and subsequent chapters). I'm not sure, if my tables create the problem or if my tables just make a problem visible. I use this kind of tables for a long time in codeproject articles. You can 'Revert to last Published Version' of the article without any loss of data, if you need to retrace. Need some help or hint. Thanks in advance. Re: Trouble editing an article - tables seem to corrupt the article Sean Ewington24-Sep-14 5:58 Sean Ewington 24-Sep-14 5:58  Wow that's a big article. Is there a particular version that is perfect you wish it reverted to? Or barring that can you email me the ideal version of the HTML and I will get it sorted? Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: Trouble editing an article - tables seem to corrupt the article Steffen Ploetz24-Sep-14 6:49 Steffen Ploetz 24-Sep-14 6:49  you can go back to the last versioned revision (73). Re: Trouble editing an article - tables seem to corrupt the article Sean Ewington24-Sep-14 7:46 Sean Ewington 24-Sep-14 7:46  Please take a look now. Is that OK? Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: Trouble editing an article - tables seem to corrupt the article Steffen Ploetz24-Sep-14 21:11 Steffen Ploetz 24-Sep-14 21:11  Thanks! It looked good until i tried to edit something. I don't know if i did something wrong or if i can avoid anything.

However, if you would prefer I tackle the update, I would be happy to. Please feel free to email me the updated HTML. Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: Trouble editing an article - tables seem to corrupt the article Steffen Ploetz25-Sep-14 11:42 Steffen Ploetz 25-Sep-14 11:42  Thank you for your offer (to publish my HTML). At the moment it seems to be a really good attroach to edit the HTML outside the browser and to email you the result. Simultaneously i'm working on another (yet very small) article: <a href="http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/816853/Writing-a-XAML-dialog-application-for-X">http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/816853/Writing-a-XAML-dialog-application-for-X</a>[<a href="http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/816853/Writing-a-XAML-dialog-application-for-X" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>] This article neither includes tables nor any formatting that requires to change from WYSIWYG to HTML editor mode. Nevertheless i get the same trouble during PUBLISH. If i send you the final HTML, i am afraid to be unable to do a final quality assurance of the articles. And because of the size of the articles i feel uncomfortable to ask you for this. In the meantime my Firefox has updated to version 32.0.3 but the trouble is still present. ==> Can you recomment a browser to use? I tried MS-IE 10, but the WYSIWYG editor is randomly scrolling. You wrote 'sometimes a server gets temporarily confused'. ==> Is it a good approach to use the browser's BACK button (to go back from the error page to the code procect article's editor page) and to retry PUBLISH? Thanks in advance, Steffen Re: Trouble editing an article - tables seem to corrupt the article Sean Ewington26-Sep-14 4:37 Sean Ewington 26-Sep-14 4:37  Because your articles are so long I think it is paramount to make sure you have a local, updated copy. Work on them somewhere offline before posting. FireFox should be working. Have you tried using Chrome? Don't worry about sending me large articles. It seems you have a lot of unique formatting which I'm assuming you'd like to keep, so mostly I'd be going over looking for formatting that might cause the editor problems and forcefully pushing the article live. Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: Trouble editing an article - tables seem to corrupt the article Steffen Ploetz4-Oct-14 17:33 Steffen Ploetz 4-Oct-14 17:33  Thanks for any support. I became brave after i downloaded the article sources locally and tested out some procedures. Now i found a way to go on... - I edit the articles offline (Visual Studio 2012 is a fairly good HTML editor). - I submit directly after pasting the HTML and checking the preview (no editor switch back from HTML to WYSIWYG). - I try it again (using browsers BACK button) if submit fails. - I try it with Internet Explorer (10), if FireFox (32) repors server problems repeatedly. - I think over to split the large articles.

At line editor it looks find, but when the post was been published/previewed the layout is missing the images and text alignment is also misplaced. to upload image i only copied them from my pc, and pasted at the editor. It's not like i did it for the first time. I did same at posts SQL queries to manage hierarchical or parent-child relational rows in SQL Server[^] One to zero/one relation in entity framework code first[^] few month ago. But they are working fine. Although if now i try to preview them, they does the same. Please let me know if i am missing something. Regards, Dipon Roy Re: Problem with image upload Sean Ewington24-Sep-14 5:51 Sean Ewington 24-Sep-14 5:51  It seems the images are not attached to the article. Could you please email them to me and I will add them for you? Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: Problem with image upload DiponRoy24-Sep-14 8:46 DiponRoy 24-Sep-14 8:46  Thank you.

Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: image link is broken Sean Ewington24-Sep-14 10:12 Sean Ewington 24-Sep-14 10:12  Can you please tell me, step by step, how you are updating the article? Somewhere along the way something is going wrong and if you attempt to update the article that same way again, there will be another problem. Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: image link is broken Prakash Lekhak25-Sep-14 3:40 Prakash Lekhak 25-Sep-14 3:40  Hi Sean, I am using the Codeproject Editor to edit it. It was a conflict between pending and new updated/edited version. It was my mistake. I just put the new updated version but it's still under pending status. Last update was missing some paragraph from article thats why updated it agian, but its Download code link is still broken. Could you make it work. Regards, Prakash Re: image link is broken Sean Ewington25-Sep-14 4:29 Sean Ewington 25-Sep-14 4:29  If you would be so kind, I would really appreciate some detailed, specific steps on how you are using the article editor, because there may be a bug in the article editor and the problem could be happening to other people. For example: 1. Click update "Update Article" in FireFox 32.0.2 2. In a separate tab, highlight the local updated HTML text, and then paste it into the article editor while the "Source" button is on a non-HTML setting. Something like this. In the meantime I have managed to update your tip with the added text. Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Posted article on Batarang sumitjolly22-Sep-14 1:46 sumitjolly 22-Sep-14 1:46  Hi Team, My name is Sumit Jolly & I posted my first article on Batarang on Saturday, and got automatic confirmation.
