This week's survey has been fired and replaced with a more experienced, professional survey.
How is "Traditional Windows Desktop" a non-Windows platform?
The survey doesn't ask "which non-Windows platforms are interesting" it merely states that non-Windows platforms are now easier than ever to target. So: which technologies are nowinteresting for the VS dev?

It looks like a bug to me. This is how it can be observed: take a look at the code sample in this article:
Simple Rule-Driven Smart Formatting for HTML Textarea[^].
Find a string "\\". The problem starts from the line
word += "\\" + rules[rule].before[wordIndex][charIndex];
var a = b + c;
After the string literal, all the following code gets the same coloring as the coloring for string literals.
Let me see if the problem is manifested directly on this page…
Oh, yes, it is reproduced.
[EDIT]
This is the fragment of HTML production:
<span class="code-string">"</span><span class="code-string">\\"
Apparently, the element with code-string CSS class is opened and not closed to the end of the sample.

SA,
Using @"\" instead of "\\" will resolve the issue. I got similar issue on my article and that is how I resolved it.

Thank you, but it would make incorrect code. You cannot write such thing in JavaScript. 
Even it there was a workaround, it would not be a solution. Even in C, C++ and C#, string literal "\\" should is parsed as single backslash.

My bad I thought you dealing with C#. Didn't look the entire article.

This is something I raised a while ago.
You can add:
//"
at the end of the line starting the mess.
It doesn't solve the problem inside the line itself, but at least it won't affect all the whole snippet. With it you close the string format at the end of the line without changing the execution of code for someone copying and pasting the snippet.
I know it is not clean, but it has worked for me several times. It is a tiny bypass until there is a server side solution
Edit:
If other language, then change // with the comment symbol of that language.
Many times for me = The bug is in QA as well

Thank you very much for this information; I'll try to do it, in a pinch.
I added some comment after
It makes 1) code which compiles, 2) the comment itself is shown in comment's color, except first '//'.

If it is a bug and not some abusing, you may move this post to the right forum, to prevent kicking from the trigger-happy...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Look, this is a Problems since "I don't know when". I made the test by myself and reported also here.
It is easy. Create an acc (the time I made the test, even confirming mail was not needed), answer questions with an "non abvusive" text, delete the answer. Rep Points remains....
I can't understand why this has not been corrected until now.

You're reporting a completely different issue.
Keeping rep points after an answer was deleted was an explicit decision: you've made the effort, you get the reward, and if someone nukes your answer then...well, at least you tried. Whether or not this is the correct decision is a different discussion.
The issue at hand is for an email address that gets resuscitated. If someone has an account, closes that account, and then signs back up again we allow that, and we maintain the points associated with that account. Changing this requires a fairly gnarly change to some buried logic we've all been loathe to tackle.

Whenever i try to upload my picture for profile, it always redirects to error page that Something went wrong, why is it that? Is it a bug in system?

Hi there,
The title says it all. I wanted to move my newsletter to a new email account, but changing my logon email doesn't affect where the CodeProject newsletters are sent.
While this seems correct - logon email doesn't necessarily involve newsletter email - I found no way of changing the address where newsletters are sent.
Could someone help me out with this?
Many thanks.
Michel

Looks like you're signed up. I have sent you an email confirmation request which should help resolve the issue. Please let me know if you receive it OK.
Also, please let me know if any of these are the issue:

Woah, that is too much!
More than 30 technical blog posts have been pulled, I have been busy moderating the posts for like previous 30 minutes and each time I refresh the home page, there is a new army of them coming.
Is this a bug, because I see none of the "moderated" ones in the fresh articles list.

I also think there is something wrong with the system, because my tech blogs that are already consumed have been consumed again by codeproject and i have not even updated them on my blog, and i explicitly deleted them so that they don't get approved from comnmunity.
