*Opens book of generic excuses given to me by Chris*
"The Code Project is orientated more towards Microsoft technologies, we try to stay focused" (Lame excuse! I could moderate the forum and do all the focusing)
And also Perl is a waste of a forum.

Yeah, the Soapbox stays really focused!  And besides, you could just get rid of the Web Development forum (HTML, CSS and Javascript really aren't THAT hard), and just have a PHP forum.

Not if it's merged with another subject (i.e. PHP). And since AJAX is getting bigger, what about an AJAX forum?

What I would like to see are the following forums:
Client Web Design - HMTL, CSS, JavaScript, Flash(gasp), JAVA, XML/XSLT and so on
PHP/Perl(sacrilege) - PHP, Perl
I think this would bring a huge amount of new members to the site....

I agree. But I guess Chris doesn't want any new members.

He is having enough trouble with the ones he has. 
But I really think that a PHP forum would be a great idea. Maybe I could offer some services to the site in exchange for it....

be smart, try to mask it as PHP.NET (see http://php-compiler.net/[^]) forum

True. I think CP Team can consider creating a PHP forum.

Hi,
I would suggest if it is feasible, to have a vertical order logon in the side navigation for CodeProject rather than having at the top. By vertical order, I mean, username, password fields follow each other in next next lines rather than falling in the same line horizontally.
When we have a vertical order, we can control the 'Remember Me' checkbox by keyboard (TabIndex). This would also be in sync with most other logon screens.
Particularly, when we check and logon to CP from shared computers and Internet cafes, I think this should be very useful security measure.

That would require a complete site redesign.....

The Code Project has done it before. A while ago (can't remember when but in 2006), the site had a login on the left side of the screen.

We still have control over that check box  . All it takes is the press of a tab button or a mouse click.

I had that problem on some terminals abroad - clear cookies helped.

It might be a cookie persisted or your web browser saves back cookie. Try after killing the cookie manually.

You can always clear you browser cookies. The Code project uses a cookie (assuming) to store you sign in preferences as well as the remember me feature.

Hi All,
Search Articles by Author.
If an article has an associated icon (for example new or updated), the icon displayed is "new", even for updated articles.
Alos, I'm not getting back full results (only 1 of 12 are returned).

Was it a page caching in effect?

Hi All,
I was wondering if it was possible to determine how many times an article's associated files were downloaded. Anyone know?

Have a "if you downloaded my files, click here for a free stock tip" button. That should get you some accurate results

Hi Brad,

I don't think it will be accurate - a user does not have to click it to download files on Code Project (I assume they will take the path of least resistance). They'll eat and run...

Well I guess you have two options, ask reeealy nicely or you could just stry host to the source on an external page and have the article link to it.

Hi Brad,
The Code Project servers don't track downloads? If not, the statistics can be pruned from the logs (I assume it is IIS).
