I thought it was an alternative to an article, as opposed to an alternative article.

That's an article: it's teaching you fundamental knowledge instead of providing a single specific tip.

My original question is a moot point by now. He has added a lot more to this than what was in the initial submission - I think that was only the Introduction and the first two code blocks.
When I asked, I was actually wondering if it was even worth posting as an Alternative since it could just as well have been contained within a message in the Article's forum.
Anyway, thanks for replying.

I have serious trouble editing my article <a href="http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/746051/Programming-the-Roma-Widget-Set-Csharp-X-a-zero">Programming the Roma Widget Set (C# X11) - a zero dependency GUI application framework - Part 3: Composite widgets</a>[<a href="http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/746051/Programming-the-Roma-Widget-Set-Csharp-X-a-zero" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>].
If i select 'view' on 'You have a new version in the works. Would you like to view or edit it?', the article overflows the page width - not in general but after the chapter 'XrwBox'.
If i select 'edit' on 'You have a new version in the works. Would you like to view or edit it?', the editor shows the table (New properties) of chapter 'XrwConstraint' but doesn't show any of the tables in subsequent chapters. Moreover the formatting gets completely corrupted (chapter 'XrwPropertyGrid' and subsequent chapters).
I'm not sure, if my tables create the problem or if my tables just make a problem visible. I use this kind of tables for a long time in codeproject articles.
You can 'Revert to last Published Version' of the article without any loss of data, if you need to retrace.
Need some help or hint. Thanks in advance.

Wow that's a big article. Is there a particular version that is perfect you wish it reverted to? Or barring that can you email me the ideal version of the HTML and I will get it sorted?
Thanks,

you can go back to the last versioned revision (73).

Please take a look now. Is that OK?

It looked good until i tried to edit something.
I don't know if i did something wrong or if i can avoid anything. But i get this error with FireFox 32.0.0 and new Code Project editor:

Something bad happened

Sometimes a server gets temporarily confused and an error like that occurs, but in that case you would simply try again later.
However, if you would prefer I tackle the update, I would be happy to. Please feel free to email me the updated HTML.

Thank you for your offer (to publish my HTML).
At the moment it seems to be a really good attroach to edit the HTML outside the browser and to email you the result.
Simultaneously i'm working on another (yet very small) article:
<a href="http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/816853/Writing-a-XAML-dialog-application-for-X">http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/816853/Writing-a-XAML-dialog-application-for-X</a>[<a href="http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/816853/Writing-a-XAML-dialog-application-for-X" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>]
This article neither includes tables nor any formatting that requires to change from WYSIWYG to HTML editor mode. Nevertheless i get the same trouble during PUBLISH.
If i send you the final HTML, i am afraid to be unable to do a final quality assurance of the articles. And because of the size of the articles i feel uncomfortable to ask you for this.
In the meantime my Firefox has updated to version 32.0.3 but the trouble is still present.
==> Can you recomment a browser to use? I tried MS-IE 10, but the WYSIWYG editor is randomly scrolling.
You wrote 'sometimes a server gets temporarily confused'.
==> Is it a good approach to use the browser's BACK button (to go back from the error page to the code procect article's editor page) and to retry PUBLISH?
Thanks in advance, Steffen

Because your articles are so long I think it is paramount to make sure you have a local, updated copy. Work on them somewhere offline before posting.
FireFox should be working. Have you tried using Chrome?
Don't worry about sending me large articles. It seems you have a lot of unique formatting which I'm assuming you'd like to keep, so mostly I'd be going over looking for formatting that might cause the editor problems and forcefully pushing the article live.
Thanks,

Thanks for any support.
I became brave after i downloaded the article sources locally and tested out some procedures. Now i found a way to go on...
- I edit the articles offline (Visual Studio 2012 is a fairly good HTML editor).
- I submit directly after pasting the HTML and checking the preview (no editor switch back from HTML to WYSIWYG).
- I try it again (using browsers BACK button) if submit fails.
- I try it with Internet Explorer (10), if FireFox (32) repors server problems repeatedly.
- I think over to split the large articles.
Regards, Steffen

Can you please tell me, step by step, how you are updating the article? Somewhere along the way something is going wrong and if you attempt to update the article that same way again, there will be another problem.
Thanks,

Hi Sean,
I am using the Codeproject Editor to edit it.
It was a conflict between pending and new updated/edited version. It was my mistake.
I just put the new updated version but it's still under pending status. Last update was missing some paragraph from article thats why updated it agian, but its Download code link is still broken. Could you make it work.
Regards,
Prakash

If you would be so kind, I would really appreciate some detailed, specific steps on how you are using the article editor, because there may be a bug in the article editor and the problem could be happening to other people.
For example:
1. Click update "Update Article" in FireFox 32.0.2
2. In a separate tab, highlight the local updated HTML text, and then paste it into the article editor while the "Source" button is on a non-HTML setting.
Something like this.
In the meantime I have managed to update your tip with the added text.
Thanks,
Sean Ewington
