A couple of things. First of all, it's not a good idea to post your email address in a posting in a popular site like this. Secondly, if you follow your account details to here[^], you'll see that you have 1 question linked to from your account.

Ssh, don't tell people. It'll spoil my reputation.

You don't have a reputation. *I*, on the other hand, do.

I prefer my reputation to be more subtle - when the axe is wielded, it comes as more of a shock (and causes me more amusement). Always being aggressive means you don't surprise people.

I don't want people to be surprised. I want them to know what to expect. It keeps the bozos pretty much in line...

Sometimes, when you are in a heavy traffic forum, you just want to see the posts that are really new, and it would be nice to have a Reset last visit date button that would do that for you. Would this be possible without putting extra load on the database?
|
|
|
|
|
You mean reset it to be Now, instead of LastVisit?
You could close the browser and open a new one...

You never know you might be good at it, and you already have all the tools / knowledge for one hell of a nice site

Incidentally I nearly got a flat tire today. Smitha found a large staple in one of the tires and I very smartly pulled it out only for the tire to instantly start releasing air. Fortunately the nearest dealership/service-center was 2 miles away and we took it there and got a new tire (since this was under warranty).

Yes. LastVisit = DateTime.Now.

I have tried that, but it does not work.

Interesting. What about opening a new window while the old is still active?

Same result. This might be due to IE's behavior. I keep one window open all the time (with my email open). So as long as that remains open, it will not treat this as a new session which may be why my last-visit is not getting updated. Although if I wait long enough (2-3 hours) it does update (not sure what can explain that part).

Okay, I closed that browser instance too (the email one) and then opened CP and it seems to have updated:
Before:
8:41 8 Oct '10
After:
12:33 8 Oct '10
The time is a little off (by about 38 minutes) but that may be due to a slow clock on one of your servers.

Now I have to stab myself in the brain, trying to remove the image of you dancing like M. C. Hammer...
Software Zen: delete this;

...and thank you very much, Gary, for inserting that image into my brain too.

This crops up every once in a while (most recently when I tried making this[^] post a few minutes ago. If I hit cancel and retry a few times it always eventually works so this isn't a showstopper but is rather annoying.

Being prompted to save a page? Weird.
Can you provide a few more details? Is it the page itself, a script file, an exe - something that sends alarm bells? What's the location of the file?
