Thanks for that on my profile page, but clicking on it takes me to a page[^] which has no description about MVP award.
May be the CP team is just working on it and I caught them even in the middle of an upload, but hey - we're watching!

Hi everyone!
I've a suggestion to make: what about some message board like coding horrors, where everybody can post small code excerpts,
with the difference that instead of being a coding horror, it has to be particulary elegant or efficient solution for a concrete problem...
Of course we can find that kind of code in many articles, but sometimes you can find a few lines of code, that are particulary appealing.
So I think it would be fun to have some nice little code excerpts to admire
Have a nice day,
Phil

Great idea, already been suggested many times - search for 'snippets'.

Something like this would be a forum I would like to give a lot of exposure to.
How about I remove the 'Subtle Bugs' forum from the homepage and replace it with 'Wicked Code'.
Alternatively I could change Subtle Bugs into 'Wicked Code' and have it cover not just cool code stuff, but interesting, subtle and elegant solutions to subtle bugs.

I think changing "Subtle Bugs" into "Wicked Code" is a good idea. Especially for beginners it can teach a certain way of thinking. Personally, I'm actually missing my daily "Ah-great-I-learned-something-cool" on Codeproject, because when I'm at work and I do a short break, I don't have time to read a full article attentively, but I would definitly love to see some "wicked code" I'm sure Wicked Code would add this experience to CodeProject 
It might even help to improve the article quality; in my impression there have been a lot of articles in the last month that would better fit in a solid "Wicked Code" post, than in an article.
Have a nice day!
Phil

Lots of green colour here[^], including the article subtitles, article description text, etc. The member has selected to have his display name in green color though.
Have I found the most esoteric bug for today?

perhaps he's just got an improperly closed font tag, and is sliming everything not being protected by CSS?

Hello,
In my article Home-Made XP Panel[^] the ZIP for the gradient panel is incorrect after it has been edited by The Code Project. Since I can't edit it myself and I have no idea where to post this question, I've just posted it here. If the location for this post is incorrect, please say so. The executable in the "Release" folder of the Gradient ZIP (v1.1) is similar to the one of the older version (v1.0) and thus it doesn't show any gradients. Please update this error
Thanks in advance,
Zaegra

Its a very common problem nowadays that some user deletes their own post in message boards after the query is answered. So that after a certain time, if similar question is asked, no reference remains.
I think it would be nice to have a moderation on deleted posts by users, so that we could prevent the original question to be deleted after being answered.
What do you think?
|
|
|
|
|
There are legitimate reasons for members wanting to delete posts so it's a hard one to set a rule for.
However, I am happy to ban users who abuse the boards. They don't help anyone.

I write the html locally and paste it into the submission wizard in text mode (i.e. not WYSIWYG).
I noticed it now automatically closes p tags when it reaches a pre tag instead of nesting the <pre>...</pre> inside the paragraph.
Not a problem, but it doesn't automatically create a new p tag after the pre is closed.
I ammended the html I submitted in my article to comply with the current 'rule', so not a problem, but I thought I'd let you know.

The rules on "correcting" HTML are as numerous as the grains of beach sand I so wish I were lying on at the moment. The only advice I can give is: double check what it does.
The issue is that when I make a change to suit one person, 10 others complain they want the old way.

This has been going on for over a day now, so I thought I'd report it. On any Reply page, the page load is stalling at http://ds.Serving-sys.com/BurstingRes/Site-845/Type-o/{######}.gif and never completes. The result is that all of the top banner area content and most of the smileys are blank spots. The upper right of the page where an ad is usually displayed is blank, but there's a link behind it, judging by the change in cursor when hovering over the space. I suspect you have a dead server at one of the advertisers sites.
I've seen ad servers screw up the site before, but never this badly, nor for this long a time. Maybe we should submit a RFC for a new standard which requires a timer that allows content a specified time to load, then skips it and moves on with the rest of the page on timeout.

Only on the reply page? Can you please do a tracert to http://ds.Serving-sys.com[^] and let us know if there is an issue? Looks like it's a Microsoft ad that is having problems.
