I made a blunder and voted 5 for a spam message in the Collaboration/Beta Testing forum. Is there no way to retract the vote, or at least recast my vote as a 1 ?

Hi
I noticed some small bugs regarding the online wizard.
I start writning an article and dont finish it, and save the draft. When I open the draft I sometimes get unexpected return line and the text is quite messy.
Another thing I noticed is when I try to update my article, I cant get the old zip file to follow, so I have to make another revision were the file is included.
There is also some wierd things happening when I try to past in some formatted code, as it sometimes get a return line between all the lines of code. The only way I found to fix it was to write some text like blhblhblhb and set the cursor in the middel so the text would look like blhb <my code=""> lhblhb. Then the formattiong works as expected.
And please can I get an english spell check in it, that would make it awsome.
Otherwise, Im extremly happy about the online wizard as Im not too found of HTML coding. PS, could I expect an update in the wizard any time soon?
Cheers
Kenneth

Can you please send me a link to an article in which you are seeing problems?
Are you pasting HTML (or text?) into the online editor, or typing directly?

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Do you mean that start working on an article, upload a zip, then save, and then when you re-edit the article the zip has disappeared?

Hi
Quote: Can you please send me a link to an article in which you are seeing problems?
I have had all the problems described in Create a Voronoi diagram 1 of 2[^], but there are several revisions so I dont know exactly which one it applies to.
Quote: Are you pasting HTML (or text?) into the online editor, or typing directly?
Im usually typing directly into the editor, or I paste in the contents from Notepad.

Yes you are correct, except the article is published and Im writing a revision(cant remember but I think it happens when I replaced the zip file with a new one). The thing is that I dont usually think about adding the zip file into the document wizard (after I had uploaded the document that is), as it normally appears as a download at the top without me doing anything. (Or perhaps it is fixed by the editors afterwords?)

The live version of this article seems OK. If you are currently working on a saved draft me editing it without the updated article handy might muck it up. It's not a bad idea to keep a saved copy of your changes in Notepad.
Adding zip files is a bit different than before. You might want to delete your older uploaded files (unless you want to keep them), then hit the "Add selected zip files to article" shown here:
Code Project Article FAQ[^]
once all your new zip files are uploaded.
Of course if you run into any problems along the way please email me the update and I'll be happy to help.
Thanks,

Hi there!
I have a suggestion. Some authors (I hope I am not the only one!  ) have the practice of inserting a table of contents in the beginning of an article, to ease navigation. Usually, creating such a table relies on marking section headers as anchors.
However, whenever we mark a header with a named anchor, the title turns to blue instead of yellow. It also becomes underlined on mouse hover. Wouldn't it be better if the anchors CSS class didn't introduced visual changes? I am only asking because the article page seems odd with blue titles, not matching against the rest of the site...
All the best for everyone! ![Java | [Coffee]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif)

When searching for messages in the "Site Bugs / Suggestions" forum, I get for the filter "Category filtered by: General Discussions [x] | Site Bugs / Suggestions [x]". However, when I click on [x] to delete "General Discussions", "Site Bugs / Suggestions" gets deleted as well. Is this intentional?
Any chance of allowing users to search on message type (i.e., icons associated with each message) here and in all other forums?

Site Bugs / Suggestions is in the General Discussions category, so if you delete the General Discussions category from the search filter then you're also, by extension, removing Site Bugs / Suggestions.

D'oh! Just realized that that was a pipe separating them.

I just realized SB/S is also under Help as BaS. However, when clicking it under Discussions, the Help menu is the one that gets highlighted. No bug, just an observation.

Some of the survey other results I think are spam as they are links to non computer websites.

This doesn't look fixed to me. Maybe I'm not viewing the page correctly.

Looks to me that they are new additions that have been added after the Mods cleared up the first lot. Re-report in a seperate thread maybe?

Question: Does revoting delete your previous inputted answer? It doesn't seem like it does for the input answers because my answer was one of the unique ones and still in there.

No it doesn't

Little suggestion for Question in the Code project. It is better if we have a link to itself on question title.
When we want to refresh the page rather than hit F5 or reload from browser this option will be quite useful.
what do you think?

|
|

I can't say it has ever been a problem to hit F5 for me...I don't see what would be gained from this, myself.

If you start replying to a message in the Lounge, and the thread is moved to the Soapbox, you get the error:
Items that need attention:
You do not have permission to perform this action Which is really not very helpful.
I know it doesn't happen often, but a better message would help when it does.
