Plainly, you've never been to dinner at my house or been around when I help old ladies across the street. 
In any case it comes to the same thing: it's about what is considered offesive and what you can do about it. He just wants a broad brush stroke approach based on what he thinks may be offensive to a complete stranger that might happen upon the site whilst trying to pry into his life, whereas what we already have pretty much covers it.

Chris. Simmer down, you're in danger of losing your cool here:

Targeting perceived immaturity in others with an immature response yourself isn't exactly the best response. Subjectively I didn't think that the joke was not KSS; bad taste yes (but so is a lot of humour). Obviously my sense of humour is different to yours, but I thought that one of the best things about CP was its broad and relatively tolerant nature. If you think my response here is out of line, then feel free to downvote me, but I will not give up my rights to have a broad sense of humour.

Pete, I'm definitely not trying to infringe your rights to have a terrible sense of humour. My father, God bless 'im, has a sense of humour that would curdle milk, but I still love him and respect him dearly.
My only point was: not the lounge. That's all. It was not a comment on maturity, and if my asking you to respect pretty much the only forum on the site where I ask members to wear pants and otherwise not be offensive was taken as immature then I don't know what to say. However, if we ever cross paths I will buy you a pint and you can tell me why I'm wrong.

Hi,I can not print correctly in firefox. All the article's print result only include 3 pages. Please check it. Thanks.
|
|
|
|
|
I've checked, and I find that I can't print correctly from Firefox, either, because I'm using Opera.

And if you used Firefox, instead of Opera, would you then be able to print correctly in FireFox?

Maybe, but I want to print in Opera, so that wouldn't work.

Are you printing the article in normal view, or are you clicking the 'print' icon and then printing that?

Yes, I do print the article by clicking the "print" icon on the top bar and then print to the printer. All the article's print result have 3 pages, first is empty, next is part of content, and last page is empty.

|
|
|
|
but in IE the operation is normal!!
|
|
|
|

(Sorry my english) (Firefox 3)
Neither normal view or "print preview" do not print correctly. Print only a 3 page:
First page: Only a (top left) "The code project" logo.
Second page: The content of article. (From vote bar (5 boxes, filled red from left), x / y, (x+y) votes.)
Third page is empty page.

Just like most popular articles. I think it is good to have a section for the most viewed article of the week or so..
In this regards, ranking can be done based on the (total people who viewed the article for last 7 days)/7
That way people can follow the hot favourite Articles of the seasion.

That would be fairly pointless since the most viewed articles for the last 7 days would invariably be the most recently posted articles.

Okay, let me put it this way.. There are quite famous *old* articles out there. They are neither the latest nor the most popular, but they are the most viewed (let's me say once filtered out from the latest articles). Their daily view count is sometime much higher than the most popular articles of the time as well. I thought it is good to have some space in the home page for those articles too.
