Yes, I could do that.

1. Look for Subject lines ending with the character '?'.
2. Look for these words in the Subject line: fix, bug, crash, problem, question, suggestion, request, feature, error, failed, assert, assertion, violation, trouble, warning, issue, incorrect, can't, cannot, using, leak, how, need, please, help, link, linker, compile, compiling, compilation.
These words are positive indicators of a question being asked.
If you scan for both (1) and (2), you will get at least 50% of the questions. You could pick up more by assuming that any post with a subject line of more than 30 characters is a question. This will filter out the "Nice One!" and "My 5!".

Prelim testing on #2 shows it's very hazy so I'll try as many as I can but will err on the conservative side for this.

I scanned a number of different articles, and it seems like the "real" questions were all greater than 20 chars in length.
I think if you combined (1), (2), and a minimum length, you would have high confidence it's a question.
Thanks for looking at this.

I did a rough pass tonight which, from the sample of articles I looked at, got most of the ones that I would consider identifiable using the subject line.
It's easy enough now to refine, so take a look at the remaining and we can be a human bayesian filter.

At this moment it looks like adding a post to Question and Answer is impossible in any form including posting Answer, Comment, reply to comment or even vote.
I happens with SeaMonkey and seems to work OK with IE8.
I already observed this condition for short period of time.

I've just posted a question, answer, comment and voted.
I did do a major site update about 2 hrs ago, so maybe a Ctrl+F5 will flush the nasties out, but that's probably no more useful than taking a vitamin C tablet, really.

Thank you, Chris.
Exactly, if was working correctly, some 3-4 hours ago. What could have happened on your most recent update(s)?
And, as I say, it doesn't work with Seamonkey but works with IE8.
This is certain instability. One hint: preview is not showing, "Submit solution" button does not appear, as well as "Add comment" and "Reply"
"Improve solution" is showing.
Thank you.

That sounds like a javascript issue. I tested with SeaMonkey my end and was able to see the buttons but I did get an ancoding error which I will follow up on.
Did you try Ctrl+F5? Actually, with Firefox 4 I found it was caching old scripts even after Ctrl+F5 so I had to close it and reopen. Annoying.

Chris,
Thank you for attention to this matter.
It was important to me to post at that time, so I used IE8.
This is a fun part, by the way.
On my time zone, April 1st just began. To me, this is my national celebration (because I consider PhysTech my major nationality, of there this is the celebration #1).
To this date, this is my post: http://www.codeproject.com/Answers/175616/WARNING-Black-Line-of-Death-in-windows-phone-7.aspx[^].
Hope you find it interesting.
We really need a tradition like that.
Even IETF RFC support such April 1st tradition, did you know that? See, for example, http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc1149/[^], this is hilarious.
Have fun and thank you.

Chris, I forgot to answer your question about F5...
Yes, of course, and also cleaning cookies and cache.
Thank you.

So the issue is still there for you, but only for SeaMonkey?

Yes, but... you not gonna believe that... all buttons re-appeared recently -- for Sea Monkey.
I see none of those problems at the moment. Do you have any idea what has been changed?

I've just uploaded a new version of the site. That may have kicked things.

All right, thank your very much for taking care of all that stuff.
Overall, the site is being gradually improved.

So? Natasha Web probably is WebCredible[^]'s secretary and was tasked with publishing pre-existing articles by their developers here on CodeProject...

Was looking at this Tip/Trick[^]...found the message board right side hidden. The right panel on the page containing 'Sponsored Links', 'Filters', 'Drill Down' & 'Announcements' has overlapped on it and one cannot view the message board completely now.
