Nope, it's not! I reported the same yesterday and Chris fixed it.
Try Cntrl+F5... I just posted the links with apostrophe's and it worked perfectly fine.

I like the new layout, but there are a few little things which are missing, broken or which seem as though they could be improved.
- There's a search box directly below the logo; it'd be nice if it could be able to search multiple categories, not just one. It'd also be nice if it could search for members.
- The source code browser seems to get messed up by a folder hierarchy inside the ZIP files. It doesn't show the contents of any of the source for my second article
- It'd also be nice to have syntax highlighting and plaintext viewing for .S, .LST and .LD files
- I've got frames which say 'This document had no style information' in place of a lot of the adverts. Ctrl+F5 doesn't change this
- The user header (name, settings, groups, watched, etc) is in the default font, which doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the site. Perhaps it could be moved into another entry on the green strip, titled with the username?
- The Topics section on the left duplicates the Chapters and Sections part of the Articles dropdown entry. Could it be removed from the left?
- On the main page, the Announcements section is on the left; on the article viewing page, it's on the right. This is a little inconsistent (that's probably just me being picky though)

1. On the cards
2. I've seen a few problems with zip cracking. I think we might need to use a different zip component
3 Send me a list of file tytpes and syntax colourising rules you want.
4. Can you please do a View Source and save the contents to a file and send it to me please? This sounds like a third party ad that's gone wrong.
5. Default meaning Times New Roman or something? Have you ctrl+f5'd?
6. Slowly but surely the article page changes will flow through
7. GOTO 6.
Thanks for the comments!

3. .LD and .LST files could just be treated as plain text (no need for syntax highlighting). .S and .ASM files are assembly language, and have the same syntax highlighting rules as a PRE block with the lang attribute set to 'asm'.
4. I've got two pages ready to send. For some reason, the problem doesn't seem to crop up at all with Internet Explorer. I use Opera, Windows 7, 64-bit.
5. Yes, I've cleared my cache and reloaded the page.
6. & 7. Excellent. Thank you.

I just tried to update a question (just adding pre tags)
When hitting continue I got a messagbox saying 'You will lose any unsaved text on this page'
Hitting leave the page posts the update but should send me to the preview? Going to the preview manually gives me nothing (all text / code is gone).
The 'When answering a question please:' box appears under the area to post your answer. Shouldn't it be better to put it next to it (like with all other boxes) because if you don't scroll down enough (and not many will do that) you don't see it.

Reported yesterday[^]!

Though UI contractd box glitch still remains. Will wait and watch for couple of days before reporting on it again.

Oeps 
Didn't really search
Well better to report it twice than none at all I guess

The selection doesn't stay on "Fluid" after I select it. Each time I visit an article page, I have to reselect it.

I went to an article page, clicked the fluid button and left the page (to another page here on CP). I went back to the page, and the layout wasn't fluid any more.
Windows 7 60whore, FF 3.6 with javascript on, and I think I had just farted.

Can you try it without farting and let me know if that solves the issue?
My code is tough, but there are limits.

So you see an answer to a question, think "That's a good Answer" and decide to upvote it.
you hit the 5 option and a text box appears requesting you comment your vote.
You put in a comment and click [VOTE].
The vote is counted, but the text box does not disappear and the comment is not placed in the comments section.
(Correction :it is if you hit f5, but this still does not feel right).
I presume this is not a feature.

Here is another one: If you happen to surf without JavaScript enabled (e.g. Firefox NoScript) you can't read the complete answer. There is a field "Add a reason or comment to your vote: x" always visible.

I'll fix this.

0) I've decided that I don't like the new location for the menu. It's just strange to have it appear above the banner.
1) I think the logged in user stuff at the top/right of the page is getting a little heavy as far as content is concerned. Maybe it should be refactored so that it contains the following text:
Logged-in User Name | Sign Out
and have a mouse hover event expose a list of the things you can do. The list would contain
Settings
Groups
Watched Items
Bookmarks
My Articles
Uploads
2) The menu should have sub-menus instead of trying to list everything in a single drop-down.
3) The non-fluid article display format needs borders on the left/right sides
4) The search bar under the banner should be above the banner, and should have a green background.
EDIT =============
5) Too much scrolling is required to "do stuff". Question/Answer is a prime example.
6) In Q/A answers, I think the new \' conversion feature is just a way to make us go back and edit our answers, hoping we'll take the insults out of the response while we're editing it.

+1 ... this change does look odd! Though might be not when we are used to..

++1 ... in my laptop of 14.1 screen, at times i have to scrolldown to get to this forum. Having submenus would reduce the length and thus avoid scrolling

0) I think it's above the banner to give it more vertical space (to bottom of window)
1) I agree; maybe put all the user stuff in a menu

When you go to your profile, all that user stuff is in the left side-bar.

OK, but I use those items frequently, so I don't want to go to my profile to access them. Or did you mean something else?

Great minds think alike. I'm still digging through emails and saw this.
1. How's this now?
2. Still rolling this one over in my head
3. Borders added. Subtle borders. I tried adding colours but couldn't settle on one I liked. Suggestions?
4. Ewww!
5. Tweaked a *tiny* bit, but QA is next on my design hit list
6. Yes, and my dasterdly scheme was spotted. I've pulled out of operation Hornets Nest

Not sure, if anyone else is facing it or not but i am facing lots of issues while posting links in my answer.
Latest being this one: http://www.codeproject.com/Answers/89929/not-responding-in-csharp.aspx[^]
If you go in edit mode of answer, you will find that the links are fine and present but on clicking it in answer, they don't lead us to that article.
Culprit: all the 'apostrophe' are having a back slash appended to it while posting an asnwer.
Anywhere we have a apostrophe, we get it. Like while writing "It's", in Quick preview all looks good but when we post it then it becomes: "It\'s"
Further, by default if i paste a link then it forms: link[^]
This was working perfectly fine earlier but now, [^] part breaks the link and the entire answer after it. Just paste 2-3 links in an answer in link[^] format and check it.
It's really painful to go in edit mode and correct the answer it should be.
P.S.: for first time while posting, quick preview shows all fine!

yep, i had issues with my answer this morning......
When i first posted the answer it chopped the end of it at the point of the link starting.
When i edited it, it did weird things with it
gave up then and left it how it was.
