That fact that you saw a use in my suggestion and "whipped it up" right away, says a lot.
I look forward to using it.
Thanks.
Just along for the ride.

I typically do this in a separate text editor and paste back in ... though if Chris gets the new buttons to be 'done done' then maybe I won't need to do that any more.

The link "first interview with Sacha Barber" is a Mailto, rather than a linky...

I know - I proof read it a zillion times, tested it, then had to move a link in Web Expression and for some bizarre reason it converted the link to mailto:. It's the second time it's done this and I realised it bare milliseconds after I'd hit the "Send" button.
Lesson learned. Proof read and test a zillion++ times.

While posting replies to programming forum questions, the editor freezes frequently. I can see a JavaScript error "Object doesn't support this property or method." @ Line 669 Char 2.
I use Win XP and IE 8.

I'll get onto this first thing this morning.
Are you pasting, or just typing? Any add-ins installed?

Happens when just typing. No add-ins installed.

It just started happening yesterday?

I thought a survey lasted a week?

They're trying to determine if there will be a demand for that survey in the future.

It's time to have a survey to know how long users want to see a survey.

A week is about as long as I can stand it... 
..besides, I visit CP mostly on Mondays, so I get my voting out of the way...

This question Client Server chat application[^] has a user provide his own solution, and accept it, thus getting rep points for the accepted solution. Surely, just as you can't vote for your own posts, you shouldn't be able to accept them either? If it stays possible, then the opportunities for "gaming the system" make it very, very easy to build a high Authority rep, by contributing nothing to the site...

I agree in principle but look at it from another way:
User asks question and answers it himself, so he took the time to provide the answer, shouldn't he be rewarded for doing so?
Not many people do this. Usually the user asks the question, waits for an answer, answer doesn't come or isn't copy past like they expected, so now they are forced to look for an answers them self forgetting all about the question and never 'closing' it or providing the answer they found.

I don't have a problem with people answering their own question - I'm all for that as it helps others with a similar problem. I'm just not sure that it should be possible to accept an answer you have given.

They can't accept it themselves. The system does it for them.

I disagree unless someone is abusing the system... Reason being, if someone asks a question and no one provides a good solution... if a user later figures it out and provides a solution and posts it, he'll be helping out the community by allowing future users to be able to browse that question/solution. The whole point shouldn't really be the points, it should be the reference available for other devs, unless of course someone is abusing the system by using this to drive up their points.

I agree ... so you should be able to accept it but you should get no rep points for doing so.
|
|
|
|
|
That's a good idea, no points for answering your own question.
