Thanks very much for your message. Typically in our articles we're looking for meaty, exhaustively explained solutions to their development problems, or articles that can teach them something to make their developing faster, more efficient, or expand their repertoire.

Here’s an article from one of our top authors:
HTML5 WebWorkers Experiment[^]

His primary goal is to demonstrate “Using HTML5 WebWorkers and a custom jQuery plug-in to create a Flickr image wall.” He treats the reader like a beginner. He defines jQuery, explains what WebWorkers are, then gets into why he wanted to create a jQuery plugin. Each progressive section of the article expands on his topic, thoroughly explains the code, explains the limitations he chose in his scope, discusses how each element to his plug-in works, provides numerous code examples, and most importantly, gives a source code download at the top for the reader should they need it.

Your article was more of an opinion piece, which isn't quite in line with the aforementioned article and our guidelines. for your next article, I recommend choosing a topic where you encounter a problem you couldn't find a solution to anywhere else. A situation where you really had to apply effort beyond your current knowledge base; where you learned something new. Maybe you had to search around the web for a few sources that gave you hints, but not a full solution. Then write an article about what you learned, and the process in which you engaged in learning it, describing each step.

Thanks,

see my vote of #1 comment for other forensic details.

It is very possible (to publish s.c.), but only if language will be in demand. Also, source code required some polish I need to be done before I will publish it.
So, short answer is: may be I will open source code repository in future.

Hi Sean, I posted a message meant to be helpful to the author: hope it got threough to him/her:

@seanewington

This could be an interesting article, with some help: I, and other people here, are happy tp assist.

The key thing is for you to describe your ideas, and the implementation, and post working source code. The code does not have to be feature complete, ... but, no "black boxes" that you don't explain.

Top-level comments on an article are for readers, not authors.

Read the article guidelines
.
good luck, Bill

p.s. I used to work almost exclusively in a language that used a stack and RPN (PostScript).

Closed article confusion

Hello,

on 21. Januar I have created an article, which was not accepted because of missing information. I have started discussion with Graeme_Grant in order to understand how to write the article better, but on 22. Januar the article was closed, and I thought it was deleted. Yesterday I saw that the article is actually still there, with messsage:

Quote:
Closed because the post is not clear, or is incomplete and has not been phrased in a way that allows it to be fully understood.. Reported by Sandeep Mewara, Mehdi Gholam, Wendelius on Friday, January 27, 2023 6:12am

But I can't access to discussion with Graeme_Grant, I can still see the discussion partly in notifications, but as soon as I click on one message it is gone, and I can't see it again, it looks like it is deleted.

Can anyone please help me? With whom can I discuss so that my artice can be approved?

Thank you in advance.

You have posted your message in the right place. CP Staff will come back to you when they can.

M.D.V.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Thanks very much for your message. Once an article is closed, I'm afraid, the article forum is reset and the comments disappear. However, looking at your article that is currently in composing status, I believe if you simply explain what is happening in your code a bit (rather than a step by step, here's the code you use) this should be great. Might work better as a tip, but I'll take a look again when you're done.

Thanks,

Hi,

now I am unable to upload files. Last file which I have uploaded is gone, and I wanted to upload one more file, but I am receiving the error:

Unexpected error during upload. One or more files may not have been uploaded.

Now I have another problem, if I go to "My Articles", and then I click on the article which is btw without title like [Article:5352695], then I am receiving the message:

We're sorry, but the article you requested could not be located.

but if I go to my messages and click on a disscussion subject, then I am still able to see the article.

I am in the middle of updating the article, still I haven't published yet, I am waiting for a fix for the problem with upload to be able to upload my host application.

Why I can't access my article via "My Articles"?

Stanko Milošev5-Feb-23 5:32

Hi,

yes I can access it. Only on one machine I can't access it, but if I go into incognito mode, then there too I can access it, so it is probably some cache problem, even though I did full refresh in Chrome.

The biggest problem is that I can't upload the file. Old file is gone, I can't access it, and I can't upload new one.

Yesterday I tried to send you message, but since they are ZIP files, it was rejected. I tried renaming them, but they were rejected again.

Otherwise, I have uploaded them on my web site:

http://www.milosev.com/Download/writingCustomControlInNewWPFXAMLDesigner/CustomControlLibrary.WpfCore.Host.zip[^]

but I am thinking maybe it would be much easier if I create new article, and delete this one?
