Today's daily insider links to this[^] working at Microsoft article which results in a 404 page.

When ever I edit a comment in the QA, publishing status drop-down menu is shown in the top right hand corner. The drop-down has values {Available, Pending and grayed out}
1. I didn't see this except when editing comments
2. The default selection is nothing. Which means the status 'Available' has to be selected in order for the change to show.
Question:
This seems useful feature. Can it be made available when editing say the question or answer.
Suggestion:
Can the 'Available' be the default selection? I have been bitten in the rare many times by forgetting to set it.

That dropdown will be removed.

This[^] Tip/Trick, currently waiting approval, is a repetition of something which occurs fairly often.
It is an alternate that isn't. It is part of an interchange that has, possibly inadvertently, been posted as an alternate rather than as a comment, as it should be, IMHO.
Now I could copy it as a reply to the comment that I think it belongs to but if I do that there is still no way for me to delete it, nor any easy way to contact the author to ask that he deletes it and posts it in the correct place.
[Edit]
Here's[^] another one.

(I'm not the article author)
I tried getting the zip archive from this article :
Big Number[^]
Extraction fails (winrar, winzip 11.0 7-zip on Vista and default extractor on Mac OSX), as well as browsing the source code from within the article.
Is there a preferred zip format (or compatibility setting) needed when creating and uploading the archive ?
Thanks.
Watched code never compiles.

I just downloaded that with no problem. I'm using FF 3.6 and Winzip 14. Why don't you try a different computer?

Works fine for me - W732bit, IE8 and W7s's built in zip utility.

Hi,
The last couple of lines on page does not appear to be centre aligned or justified (in chrome atleast)
Image: Link
Is it intentional or bug?
One appears to left and other two to right top and bottom in footer.
|
|
|
|
|
They are justified with the ad.

That might be the reason for the way they look, but the fact is, it looks wrong; like the centering is broken.

I poked around in FF, the ad and footer were always either centered on the page as a whole, or the main frame if the forum sidebar was visible. In both cases it looked fine to me.
Is Chrome doing layout differently, or is there a page where it's off center in some other way?

In IE, Chrome, and Opera, there are two lines displayed below the bottom orange bar. The first of these lines is centered, the second line is right-justified wrt the first.
In FF 3.6, it looks a lot funkier: three lines, the first sort of centered, the next two offset to the right.
p.s. By "centered", I mean wrt the browser window.

Now I'm midly confused. I'm using FF 3.6.13 and only seeing 2 lines. The first the same width as the banner and centered the same, the second right aligned to the first. It might be a browser bogo formatting thing though. I saw this:

[joke] Do you have the checkbox "Allow hamsters to screw with the HTML" checked? [/joke]

Not checked: Encode "<" (and other HTML) characters when pasting
Checked: Use HTML in this post
It pasted as plain text, I thought the decision about how to convert html-plain text (or to take the plain text version from the clipboard) was done by the browser before Maunder's JS had an opportunity to meddle.

Weird. Do you have anything to fiddle with your layout installed? I tried fiddling with zoom and varied the spacing between mobile and copyright but never broke it into two lines.
The left and right aligned parts are in different divs, so if something kept them from both fitting side by side the relayout is reasonable.

2x12=24
1x12=12
0x12=18

Actually, I reported this issue several days ago, and Chris's reply was - er - terse. 
So I don't know what settings could affect this. Maybe fluid/fixed? Just don't know. If Chris shows interest, I will do more research.
p.s. Sorry about previous post.

 Consistent in all 4 browsers. No funky centering.
|
|
|
|
|
Suggestion: I thought that's wrong way and it looks different on other browser(firefox).
