My opinion is that posting a comment should be the only way to cast a vote (for articles anyway).
If you want to cast a vote, post a comment and include your vote.
Get rid of the other method, it's silly.

Like Hans said, most authors expect that when somebody low-votes an article, they leave a comment on "why" they do so. I think that their expectation is very much valid, given the hard work they put in to publish an article. This will keep the lame 1 votes at bay.
There were numerous discussions on this topic before this feature was implemented, any of which which I don't know if you participated in. Now, this topic has been retired permanently, forever, and now is beyond any shadow of reconsideration.

Whenever we modify our thread, I believe, till sometime back, CP used to insert a line near the sig indicating a timestamp right. Has something changed?
I needed to recently do a small amendment to one of my post http://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/View.aspx?fid=1645&msg=3022834[^] whilst using the Strike tag in the newer version. The final thread never carried this timestamping.
Am I missing something?

The timestamp only appears if you modify the message at least 5 minutes after posting

So, I search in C++ for stack overflow, and a useful and generous list of links are displayed.
Selecting one, I'm off to never never land, where a little cute pixie that strangely looks like Julia Roberts says "not today honey".
My selected article is no where to be found.
What am I missing?

huh, what? Some applications of C++ do not have infinite stack space.
or did I miss something in how you said, "Huh?"

Searching the forums or the articles?
Searching forums[^] has links that work fine for me.
Searching Articles[^] also works.
Can you send me a link to the search results page that has the missing links?

Hi guys
I love the site. But I want to read articles when I am not at home. I have a windows mobile phone that I can use to access the site. But when I do the formatting is all messed up.
Have you thought of making a lite - mobile version of the site. Still containing all the same articles of course.
Thanks

Which device are you using? Can you please head over to http://www.codeproject.com/script/misc/browsercheck.aspx[^] and let me know what it says? Most specifically does it say you're on a mobile device? The site tries to automatically go to a Lite version for mobile devices, but checking can be hit and miss so I may probably have to provide a manual method to move to mobile mode.

I tested this on my O2 XDA Orbit 2 (a rebranded HTC of some kind, I think...) running Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional. Using IE, it reports:
Gecko: False
IE: False
Opera: False
Webkit: False
Browser: UNKNOWN
Type: Unknown
Standard: True
Display Mode: Normal
User Agent: Xda_orbit_2/240x320 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; IEMobile 7.11)
Version: 0
Major Version: 0
Minor Version: 0
Web 2.0 Enabled: False
Mobile Device: False
Cookies OK? False
Server: Web13
Country: United Kingdom
Using Opera on the same device gives the same, except:
Opera: True
Broswer: OPERA
Type: Opera8
User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; PPC) Opera 8.65 [en]
Version: 8.65
Major Version: 8
Minor Version: 0.65
Web 2.0 Enabled: True
Server: Web11
In Opera, the produced interface is okay (not sure if it's your Lite version, but what i've experimented with is perfectly usable), but in IE, as described above, the interface is IE Mobile's mangling of the full version.
Hope this information is of some use.

Hi
Your scripts picks my phone as being Mozilla based. (Its not its IE  as it is built in)
I dont know if it is the light version I am seeing. I get a big green bar at the top that is rather annoying. I have not been redirected anywhere. (still on codeproject.com instead of for example mobile.codeproject.com or codeproject.com/mobile dont know if this matters)
If I can find this forum post on my phone I will paste the script's code
Thanks

Hi,
I can't see a change in either IE or Opera. I've tried clearing Caches, but didn't seem to make a difference.

So much for the updates browsers file
That's it: I'm going to hack.

Home > Forums > ASP.NET
The forum name in the sitemappath should be clickable (a link that taked you to the first page of that forum)
The list of forums at the beggining of the page looked fine, well not really looked fine, but it was easier to find a forum and navigate through them
Thanks

I'm talking about the rightmost item on the green menu bar. Press control, and it displays soapbox instead of lounge (until you hold the control key down). I don't know if this is a feature or something is broken, but just please leave it as it is. It is convenient to navigate through. 
If it is a bug, it reminds me of a comment I read in stackoverflow.com :
<font color="green"></font>
BTW, I'm using FF 3.0 on WinXP 64 bit.

But have the link go to the backroom, not the soapbox.
It also breaks the FF feature that Ctrl+Link opens the target in a new tab. Maybe this could annoy someone.

|

BTW here[^] the explanation.

Rajesh,
I believe, the CTRL key works like this:
1) From any other page (including Lounge), if you wave the magic wand (*press the CTRL key*), it shakes the link to Soapbox (New Soapbox)
2) From within Lounge/Soapbox New, it links to Two Six Zero Five.
