I think we would like to have a table of content generator in the articles. It is really very hard and tough job to actually edit the HTML content of the article, add the IDs to the headers and then map them to the ordered list that we are going to have.
What I suggest is to have something like, [toc], to be added to the content somewhere like in the first paragraph, after the introduction, which gets replaced to generate the table of content based on the headers in the content ahead. You can use the server-side script to do that once the article is published (or is in the preview mode). This feature is being used on TechNet blogs and I really find that helpful. I think, we need one like that too.
If such a suggestion has been rejected then let me know what went wrong in that discussion or whatever, but I think this is a new suggestion and should be considered for future builds. This would ease the authors and would standardize the CodeProject articles to contain the table of content, where system itself would generate the links.

Gus has already provided some code to me for this but I want to do it via Javascript client-side. Should be very simple (add/remove TOC button and it does magic).
There's an alternative in that we show the TOC on the right hand column, so no inline TOC at all. That's the debate...

My vote still goes for the first paragraph, even if that is client-side or server-side. Right hand column would require extra spacing, it might break the interface when the text exceeds (otherwise forcing the text to stay inside would look horrible). Secondly, TOC is still going to be generated, why not let author decide whether he wants to see it or not.
In my own opinion, right hand column won't do any good. If you want to control TOCs then at least take my tip to keep them in central column.

I will admit I like the "TOC on the right" idea - particularly if it applies retrospectively to existing articles. An in-line TOC both blocks the initial view of the actual article until you scroll, and is harder to use when reading as you have to scroll back to the start to access it.
There is unused space on the right, and it would be easier to "translate" to a mobile view, where you don't get the right or left columns at all.

When an article is created, you can choose who can edit it. For example you can decide that silver level members (and above) can modify the article. If you look at his other articles you'll notice that you probably can also edit also them.

I see. Sorry, thought it was security problem.

That was a good observation!

Would it be possible to show the text when a question is created or modified '< div class = "float-left posted")' a little bit more readable? E.g. RGB 164,164,164 instead of 204,204,204. I think this would help also some other people here.

Still trying to track that one down, eh?

It said I had to confirm my email address, so I did, and I'm still unable to post. I do not see this message for any other forum.

You may need to open a new browser window. It will pick up your email confirmation in the current window, but not in previously open windows with old sessions.

The CP page doesn't look in order.
I menu names are combined and the forums font looks weird too.

Can you click on your appelative in the upper right and see your "Professional Profile" then click on Reputation and get a graph of your Reputation?
'Don't mean to hijack this thread ... but I can't see my graph in either IE8.0.7601.17514 or my other browser. Which is more up to date.

We (and pretty much every library out there these days) no longer support IE8. What' your other browser?
