On the search result page[^]if you mouse over the menus on the Green bar, the search box stays on top and obscures the drop-down menus.

What browser are you using? I can recreate the issue in IE7 (not 8 or 9). I haven't tested it in others, yet.

I think it would be nice to put up a User Memorials page for users that have passed away (most recently, Ray Cassick). This would be a place where the surviving relatives could post a couple of pictures and a statement, and there would be a link to the user's profile and a forum for other users to post messages.
What say you?

It's a small world. I was in his class for around 2 years in high school (judging by the public portion of his linked-in profile). Pity that he's dead, was a brilliant guy, IIRC.

Sorry I didn't get to this earlier - I was in Oz and am still trying to catch up on emails.
I think this is a great idea. I'm not sure if it should be a general "Members" section (or chapter?) where we can have a Memorial subsection (or full section) or whether we should simply mark a member's profile appropriately and have a page that lists members. A note can be posted at the top of the member's personal forum and then replies and responses could be posted underneath.
What are your thoughts?

I think maybe a menu item under Features, maybe listed as User Memorials or something like that. When CP admins get the word about a user's passing, a spot could be created on the page for that user, and the surviving relative could be given an opportunity to post something (including a couple of images). I think it could be kind of like an article, where the article is the note/images from the surviving relative, and a forum at the bottom of the page for people to post. The main page itself would be a list of user memorials, organized by year.

I get a "No Entries Found" on the Active tab.
EDIT ============
Seems okay now, but that was freaky.

Yeah. Me too got the same message in the morning

Me too, I got that message yesterday, but within minutes it was fine again.
But now, the same story again: Sorry, not entries found.

Are you still experiencing it?
(This probably was due to some background processes we had on one of our web servers)

Nope, not since reporting it.

When you select "Site Bugs and Suggestions", it is the "Questions & Answers" menu group that is highlighted, not the "Help!" group in which the forum is currently placed...

Yes, because the Bugs and Suggestions forum is, well, a forum, and all forums will make the QA / Forum menu be highlighted. I could hack it to not do this but...

I was thinking that some people do not read the FAQ to find out about the lang attribute when use he code blocks, so how about creating a popup (similar to the member popup, the one with all the 'My stuff'), with all the supported languages listed.
It would also save you from having to manually edit the lang attrib.

|
|
Are you thinking that the [code block] button (just above the message edit area) would actually be a drop-down menu? Not a bad idea.

Basically yes, either a drop down selector or on mouse over it gives you the popup with the list of valid languages to select from.
Whatever is easiest and most intuitive to the end user.

That is not sufficient. I trust a lot of people simply type their PRE tags (or paste the lot) without using the code block widget.
Here is my suggestion:
1. automatically add a lang="someLanguage" to every PRE tag that does not have one, as soon as preview or publish buttons are clicked;
2. choose an intelligent default language; it would take into account the name of the forum, the tags of the article or Q&A, maybe even a user setting; and it would default to "text" when undecided.
3. it would be shown as the selected value in a ComboBox, next to the code block widget, not instead of it.
4. changing the ComboBox selection would not alter existing lang attributes, it would only influence new ones added automatically as described in #1.

This article:
3D Software Rendering Engine - Part I[^]
has just won an award for C++ articles. Upon reading it, the quality of the figures didn't jive with the brevity of the writing, so I did a quick check. Many of the figures are directly copied from the text he mentions near the beginning of his article: "Tricks of the Windows Game Programming Gurus" By André LaMothe, published by SAMS.
Here's one example.[^] (I can't link to the exact page, scroll down a couple of pages to see the ones I noticed).
I can't find a "Report article" button anymore, so I'm posting this here.
Cheers,
Drew.

For some reason I'm unable to view the image in Google books but we will take a look and discuss the issue with the author. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
