When you are writing it, if you try to set up a title such as:
List<T> - What's that all about?
As soon as you exit the "title text" area, the HTML tags are swallowed, and the title appears to be:
List - What's that all about?
So, you sigh, go back to it and change the text to:
List<T> - What's that all about?
And now the title looks right on the authoring page.
List<T> - What's that all about?
But then you go to the preview page, and the title shows the HTML encode characters:
List<T> - What's that all about?
It's not a big problem, but it could confuse a noob...particularly since most of them don't seem to find the "Preview" button anyway...

I remember the same in QA (I can't find the report...) when HTLM like tags are only seen when you are inside the question, but in the list it vanished...
(Does it mean you back to serious work?)

A debugging session took me into the MS reference sources, and showed me something I should have known, but didn't - so I started a quick article on why it matters. (The title has changed already, and the article itself is in "pause" mode waiting a couple of days for me to review it before I hit the "publish" button)

I really like the way the forums are (under normal layout settings) however when there is a post I clearly have no interest in (such as the CCC or the MQOTD or ...) I skip these posts.
But the reply's are still there, taking up space.
Would it be possible to have a sort off collapse button (next to the pin button or so) that collapses the thread?
I know there is the 'Thread view' layout but I don't really like that one 
Added bonus would be if a posts gets collapsed other posts (or reply's) get added to the bottom of the page to reach the 'per page' count again. (that might not be possible but ...)
Nothing major, a nice to have but I can live without it

A feature that I like in Facebook is the ability to stop seeing top level messages from certain people. If we could "block" certain posters, this would be handy.

Would be handy as well.
But just because I don't want to see the ccc en such doesn't mean I don't want to see other posts by that member.
Hence the 'as well' part .

Hi Tom, I find this a bit confusing: yes, the replies are there in the sense that your browser has loaded them (I assume they are not "lazy-loaded"), but if you are using the Thread-View, you don't have to see them.

From what I understood from his post (and if I may) - I think he means a "Collapse" button on a parent message which will collapse all its children while using the Normal layout. So even if the children are already rendered, they will simply be collapsed.
If you prefer to see the messages along with their replies (as in the Normal layout - which I believe most of us do), the problem with the Thread view is that you still have to navigate to a separate page in order to see the children messages.
Your time will come, if you let it be right.

While I would give the premise "100% of 'us' believe the way we prefer things defines 'normal'," 100 to 1 odds as reality, I wonder about what the percentage of Lounge-lizards using thread-view might be.
In "Normal" view what I observe is the thread-start visible, and replies showing title-only ... originally.

Exactly, and the OP's suggestion is to be able to collapse those "title-only" replies.
This would be quite handy IMHO if one does not intend to read the replies at all given the parent thread (and of course the number of replies (as they still take up some space even in the "title-only" view) for a decently popular thread).
Your time will come, if you let it be right.

You'r probably not the only one, I'v been told before that I'm not always clear in my explanations
It's basically as Agent_007 said.
I prefer (by far) to use the 'normal' layout setting.
But under that setting the reply's are always visible and taking up space, I don't mind this as a default but would like to have the option to collapse (or hide) those reply's for the posts I choose.
Anyway Agant_007 probably said it better so'll refer to his reply

So I'm probably not doing something correctly, but I'm a noob here. Verified my account, searched, posted a Q, searched some more... Every question I try to open from my search results only opens a page listing the latest Q's (in C#) under 'how to answer a question.'
What am I missing. Can't be firefox, can't find a 'contact us' anywhere. This seems to be the only place I can ask. Why won't search results open, same or different tab? Dumbfounded.
Thank you,
Mac

.... top of this forum(Like in lounge). Include this page[^] in that thread. I remember there's a thread in past.
Too many 'Delete my post' threads here recently.

You mean you want an FAQ sticky thread? I'd prefer not. I'll add an FAQ entry to the forum abstract instead.

Go to your name at the top right corner of the site. Choose "My Settings" from the menu, and select the Close my account setting at the right hand side. Finally, click Save my Settings and I believe your account will be closed.

That doesn't work. Try it if you don't believe me.

Less than half-an-hour ago I had just finished the third edit of my response to the OP with revised code that met their requirements: [^].
And, ba-boom, the question is removed. fyi: this was the OP's first ever post on CodeProject.
Yes, I can still see my last revision of my response here: [^].
I'm sorry, but I am not willing to spend time answering questions in a way that is based on my own commitment to a certain level of quality, and being responsive to posters, particularly newcomers, on QA, in order to see this happen time, and time, again.
This, in combination with the abuse of the rep system, and the frequent gratuitous sneers and insults doled out every day to QA questioners, is just a no-win situation.
imho, this situation is not healthy for the wonderful, vibrant, pro-social, community that CodeProject is.
thanks, Bill

To be honest, I did voted that question as no-question AFTER reading your solution and the comments on it...
The reason is that, IMHO, in this case you turned the 'wonderful, vibrant, pro-social, community that CodeProject is' into a code service...
OP didn't got nothing except a solution and for me is less than nothing in these cases...
I'm sorry to make you feel 'IInsignificant' and believe me that nothing personal involved in it...
It is nothing more than the clash of opinions on QA questions - and I too have my answered questions that were removed...
I want to tell you that on the professional (and also on the online-personal) level, I will be sorry not seeing you around QA and at all...
