I'm using IE9 as we speak and I'm unable to reproduce the problem. Can you try Ctrl+F5? I madean adjustment to the CSS file and maybe your browser isn't picking up the latest.

Hi Chris,

I reloaded the site but still i am facing this issue, at home as well as in office, am able to click on the menu 1 out of 10 tries. Some thing is wrong with CSS or scripts.

Thanks!!!

This is happening on my only article: www.codeproject.com/Articles/20823/Barcode-Image-Generation-Library[^]

1.0.0.13 has been updated on June 12, 2012 and when I click edit it edits the article prior to the latest (1.0.0.12).

Please let me know what is going on so I can edit my latest copy of the article.

It seems that in the "my notifications" page there are some columns:

1	2	3	4	5
checkbox	Time	Message	Go to...	Green circle with mark inside

I can see that the columns 3 and 5 point to this page: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/WebControls/#[^] which in my case is a white page without any content.

Then we have the 4th column in which we have the "Go To..." which points directly to the message/post... that originated the notification. Unless everything is part of a really clever hamster's plan, shouldn't the "Go to..." and the green circle disappear and leave it like:

1	2	3
checkbox	Time	Message

Then, clicking on the message would drive the cpian directly to the post that originated the notification...

Thank you for your great job!

PS: before the change CP was a great community with a responsive set of forums that worked really well, now, with those changes, we have the same great community and the same responsiveness but a new feel that's really good.

Thank you all.

I've deliberately made it so that clicking on the message shows you the message in-place, in order to save you a page load. the point being that you can quickly review and remove a bunch of messages, and then if you really need to go to them you hit the "go to" button.

Also: thanks for the kind words. A few more tweaks left, but we're very happy so far. I feel like I can breath again...

Forget it... I've just tried it again and now I can see the message just under the message subject as you explain...

Yesterday, on the click of the message subject I was being driven to a blank page...

Now it works perfectly...

Don't know if you've made any change or not, but it works...

Sorry to disturb you... Sigh | :sigh:

Nope, no changes made. Must have been one of those things...

Meanwhile...

if (user == "Joan")
{
    GreenButton.OnClick = GoNowhere();   // Mwahaha! He'll never find out!
    Title.Href          = WhitePageUrl();
}

Where is 'Latest Top Articles'?

I can't quite recall what the section was called, but the front page used to have, at the bottom, a section with top rated / voted articles from the past few weeks. This was the 'view' that I used most often to find quality articles.

Is it located somewhere else now?

(I think the new design is slowly growing on me!)

Just at the bottom of upvote thumb icon, a small orange transparent rectangle is present. Should not be there.

This happens on articles as well.

I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

The box around the solution header appears to have shrunk, so that the top horizontal line runs straight through the text:

 Solution 1

[edit]Just noticed: the box around the voting stars for the actual question is shrunken in the same way, but horizontally instead of vertically.[/edit]
