It's here.
I guess that doesn't count as close. Not even close to be being close.
But better late than never.

Just tried replying to a post in the Lounge and received a plain white page with the message:
"Error: Failed to load viewstate. The control tree into which viewstate is being loaded must match the control tree that was used to save viewstate during the previous request. For example, when adding controls dynamically, the controls added during a post-back must match the type and position of the controls added during the initial request.. Ticket: "
That's the whole message - there was no ticket number. It repeated after each of three or four tries.
Throw Chris in a shower and sober him up while this is still going on; it's probably intermittent, and he won't want to miss it.

Yep - I just uploaded a new version of the site so you would have been trapped in-between pages. The Viewstate of the old page wouldn't have matched the new page on a post back so the ASP.NET engine gets all scared and confused. Just try again after a fresh page load and it will be all good.

That sounds reasonable. I must say, if that error was generated by IIS, it's the most informative I've ever seen from a Microsoft product. Maybe some small part of the MS team is finally beginning to "get it."

Actually we're having to put in lots of code to hide these annoyingly verbose, accurate and informative error messages. I'll check to see why that slipped through and ensure that next time you get a 'An error occured. Please reboot your machine, or, if that fails to help, reinstall your local operating system'.

I thought you were going to go with "An error occurred. Get a hair cut."

I was googling for something and came across this: http://www.123aspx.com/redir.aspx?res=32750[^]
Aside from a tiny bar at the top, everything is CP content.

I got this when clicking save after changing my subscription settings: The Password and Password confirmation do not exactly match MY change did go through anyway.

The modify page is forgiving in that if one piece of info is invalid then other changes will go through regardless.

hmmm I guess I must have hit a second key while tabbing past the password fields.

I believe this has been suggested before and it would bring on too much load for the servers. Wait and see what Chris has to say about it. He'd know better than anyone if this would be viable or not.

Would it be possible to allow the 100, but throttle the rate the user receives the 100? Just a thought.

Would it be possible to allow it only for some selected users who are kind to hamsters ?

Every so often I come across extra long code snippets in articles that are collapsible, the overall feature is great but the text notation needs to be fixed.
Currently the function says:
"Collapse" or "Expand Code Snippet"
Shouldn't the function say:
"Collapse Code Snippet" or "Expand Code Snippet"
May add a little repetitiveness, but at least it would be consistent repetitiveness.
