I was just wondering if it would be a good idea to have some sort of CP repository for graphics, fonts, Xaml-y widgets (or other vector-based pretty things), css layouts etc etc. for the more creative types to post to. It might need to have a slightly different format to the article-based code submissions, but it could be a really great resource for us non-designers... and who knows, an additional source of advertising revenue for CP?

Probably me being dense again, but within <code> tags could we have it so that < and > are not interpreted as HTML?
I know I can disable them for the entire post, but sometimes you want them within the code tags, but not within the main body of the message without going to the lengths of <-ing and >-ing everything manually?
|
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately not since we allow some HTML within code and pre tags (eg <b>)

Ah, I see. How about an attribute within the <code> and <pre> tags such as <code IgnoreNonStandardTags="true">. I have no idea if this is feasible or how much effort would be involved - I'm just throwing cards on the table - but it would make Generic and Linq-ified stuff a lot easier to tap in rather than cut and paste

If you are using IE then when you paste code into a message post box the <'s get converted to < automatically.
In the article posting form the WYSIWYG editor will also handle this situation.
Next step is we have to implement WYTSIWYG in the forums

Cool - like I said, probably me being dense

I doubt it. If it isn't intuitive then we need to fix it.

Well possibly... but never underestimate the power of the dense

I use Thread view to cut down on the amount of stuff I see.
But when someone posts a link to some particular message and I click that link, all I get is the page the message is on and I have no way of finding the message.
Therefore, if I'm going to click a link to a message I first have to set to Normal view.
Is there some way that clicking a link to a message while in Thread view can behave "properly"?

Why I cant use of search on the codeproject and result of my search is :
"Either the search timed out before it has completed, or no results were found. Please try changing your search criteria."

We're working on making this more intelligent.

more intelligent? Sorry Chris, searching articles works fine, but I have not been able
to find a single message, whatever search I try, for several months now. I gave up long time ago.
Please start making it somewhat functional, before even considering more intelligent...

Give me an example of a message search that fails for you.

No problem, I copied a sentence "we have internet" from a very recent C# message[^], and tried:
1) all forums
2) a few forums including C#
3) only C# forum
and got the same "Either the search timed out before it has completed, or no results
were found. Please try changing your search criteria." in each case.
This is how I search:
- on a forum (say C#), type the sentence in the search box, select messages, hit go;
- this updates the URL to something with fid=0 (I would expect 1649) and shows a new
search page titled "Search Message Boards", where the same sentence is filled in already,
and all forums are checked
- now optionally uncheck most (or all but C#) forum
- optionally increase the TO datepicker (it is 05-MAY already overhere)
- click SEARCH button
- the URL does not change, the page reloads, and gives the "Either ..." message, but
no hits.

Hope this clarifies what is going on.

Breaking news:
the search on the Search Message Boards works if only one word is entered,
it fails when two or more words are entered with or without an AND in between.
However I typically don't search for a single word...

Well I dont know whether this forum s the one for my question, but still I didnt find any other forum for this question...
Where do I find my posts?
All the posts that I have made?? And the replies to the them??
Dont you guys think that there should be a link to that too so that people who come late(say 1 or 2 days) after posting their questions dont have to search through pages and pages of posts??
Also here in CP if someone answers a post it dosent bubble up..
So the actual question poster wouldn't even know that there is an updated answer to his question..

Click on your name (at the top right of this page) and you'll see a link in your profile that lists your latest messages

But dont you think that it should be renamed as "My Threads" or "My Posts" or something like that..?
How could new users find out??
Just a humble suggestion..
