No I'm not. I was trying to insert a tag pair into text prior to adding what I wanted formatted.
eg
1 This is text.
2 This is <b></b> text.
3 This is <b>Bold</b> text.

I've been a fan of the CodeProject Insider for several years now. (For those of you who are not familiar, this is not the CodeProject Newsletter. The Insider contains industry news, developer news and selected forum discussions.)
I realize that there are lots of industry rags out there like slashdot and techcrunch, but the CodeProject Insider sold me with its snarky, insightful, often hilarious subheads beneath each article title. The insider also limits its top articles to the 3 or 4 best in each of the three sections, which makes for a nice 'digest' when I don't have the time to devote to slashdot or allthingsdigital.
Back in 2006, I sent the editor of the Insider an email asking why there wasn't an RSS feed for the Insider. (Somewhat understandably,) I did not hear back. It seems so strange to me that an RSS heavy site like CodeProject doesn't have a feed for their best publication! The only explanation I could come up with is that it is easier to count eyeballs in a newsletter than RSS. (The Insider has a big chunk of real estate devoted to ad space.)
I was so frustrated by having to get the Insider by going into my email that I cancelled my subscription... but the snarky subtitles drew me back in and I signed back up.
Since then, the way I get my news has changed - and it may have added one last straw to the camel's back. More often than not, I read email and news on my internet-ready phone. The newsletter itself is so-so on the tiny screen, and most of the Insider articles link to pages that reformat nicely for my phone, but when I get down to the codeproject forum discussions, I dread going in. The forum has no mobile mode... fonts and controls are impossibly small making reading difficult - and making a post is beyond frustrating. (I'm making this post from my PC because I couldn't complete it on my phone!)
In fact, nothing on the codeproject site is mobile friendly, which just seems bizarre for a tech hub with 6.5 million members.
I really do enjoy the CodeProject Insider, but I think I've reached my limit.
I truly hope that someone out there can set me straight and tell me that there is a mobile formatted codeproject that I have overlooked. Better still, a link to the Insider RSS (again, not the Newsletter RSS) would be awesome!

An RSS feed is definitely in the works, but we simply haven't had a chance.
As to mobile, I'm currently using my blackberry to type this. This site should automatically detect that you are on a mobile device but if not then we need to update our browser definition filesm

Just found a bug... Example here[^]
I was was trying to send the same message to both leppie and Bassam Abdul-Baki and got an error saying that the message has already been posted in that forum. This seems wrong as it was in different parts of the thread.

How does a message being posted in different parts of a thread mean it's not a dupe posting?
Does it make more sense, and does it protect the forums enough, to check new posts normally, and then add an extra check that dupe posts aren't for the same parent message?

I thought you were still working on it. However, it looks like[^] you're done with it, Chris.

Hi Rajesh,
I looked at your screenshot and noticed a Qick Answer menu item in the green menu.
Is that something that is being tested by a closed group? just curious as to why it is not visible on my screen.

Hi Dave,
Yes, it's a new question and answer system that we (beta testers) are testing out. It's currently in an early stage and is available for beta testers only.

-5 minutes? Chris would NEVER do that. As a physics geek, Chris would never condone time travel into the past. Now had that had a datestamp from next week, yeah, then that'd probably be Chris fiddling with his time machine there.

Oh come on, Nish! "-5 minutes ago" is from the future. Which is why I was kinda scared if this man already succeeded in his time travelling venture.

Well in that case I am a little depressed that he picked CSS as his specimen human!

Probably didn't expect the experiment to succeed, so he chose someone expendable.
Visual Studio is an excellent GUIIDE.

I was going to say, "If we can put a man on the moon; why not make it CSS?"

Because there're far cheaper ways to get rid of him; and even if it was a short, one way, trip there'd be no shortage of deserving volunteers for the mission.

There seems to be a problem with the Web22 server;
The green menu bar - message boards dropdown only display the 'All message boards...' menu item. The other servers appear ok, and i have only seen this repeatable on Web22.
UPDATE: Noticed i was on Web22, and checked, the menu was there. However, the advertising banners top and bottom were missing, and just white rectangles where they should be.
Cheers,

I searched this forum and see there was a thread running from May to Jul. but not sure if problem fixed or not.
Since i had my first aticle published last week, i have never seen any graph of page views. just the good old red x for missing image.
I checked the servers and the page is being generated on different ones (this morning was web18 and web21).
Is it me, or is this feature currently unavailable.
Thanks,

Yeah, I've always had the red X on the bottom of my articles. The text above the X says:
BETA [Silver Members Only / Not Public]: Article page views by day.

All fixed.

Has it come to the point now that we need to try and break away from the VB6 questions in the VB forum?
How about adding a Sticky at the top of the forum with big letters that says VB.Net topics only, for VB6 or VB for Applications topics click here, the 'here' would obviously take you away to a new forum dedicated to those very topics.
I find that having all the VB6 questions and all the standard replys being repeated, is a big distraction to the forum and makes it look, well, a mess.
Cheers,

I second this - VB6 and VB.NET should have separate forums. Specially considering that VB.NET is closer to C# than it's to VB6.
