Is only Chrome that has problems with comments in Q&A? OriginalGriff2-Sep-10 9:55 OriginalGriff 2-Sep-10 9:55  This is driving me round the twist - I try to tell a questioner what to replace < and > with in a question, so the HTML doesn't swallow code, and what happens? The HTML anti-swallower swallows the sequence "&lt;" and replaces it with < - which is what I was trying to avoid, and it ends up looking as if I am sugesting replacing '<' with '<'. It doesn't do it here! So why it is playing silly buggers over there? And please, can we have "proper" editing on comments? Smileys, <, >, code block, and so on? Pretty please? With sugar on? I feel better now... [edit]I should have mentioned this is in a comment to a question, not an answer.[/edit] Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together. Re: Is only Chrome that has problems with comments in Q&A? Richard MacCutchan2-Sep-10 10:10 Richard MacCutchan 2-Sep-10 10:10  I have noticed similar weirdness using Chrome. Sometimes when I paste a link it gets interpreted and converted to a proper anchor element, at other times it just gets pasted as is. General interpretation of tags seems to change from day to day and hour to hour. I suspect one of the hamsters has gone critical. It's time for a new signature.

Chris Maunder2-Sep-10 13:30 Chris Maunder 2-Sep-10 13:30  I've just cranked up the priority of the "allow HTML in comments" task. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP I cannot inset image while writing an article for codproject. divyesh22-Sep-10 7:26 divyesh2 2-Sep-10 7:26  Hi there, I am trying to insert and image in an article that i m writing for codeproject but i felt difficulty to do that. Please make good editor, may many people just avoid to write on codeproject because of your word editor. Thank you Re: I cannot inset image while writing an article for codproject.

When you use the Article Wizard, you get a page that allows you to upload files; you could use that for code files (a ZIP holding the sources) as well as image files; it automatically offers you the correct HTML snippet for including each image. 2. You don't have to create an article inside the wizard's editor, in fact I recommend you create the article on your PC, using local storage, so nothing gets lost when your connection (or the CP site) suddenly breaks down. Use the web-based editor only for final touches!

Re: I cannot inset image while writing an article for codproject. AspDotNetDev2-Sep-10 9:10 AspDotNetDev 2-Sep-10 9:10  If you like, you can use any free HTML editor (such as Visual Web Developer) and email the article with the associated files (images, ZIP's, etc) to Code Project. They'll post the article for you without you ever having to touch their editor. [Forum Guidelines] Possible SPAN AspDotNetDev1-Sep-10 10:29 AspDotNetDev 1-Sep-10 10:29  I posted this message with a SPAN tag in it (to add a border around some text). It works just dandy. However, when I edit the message, the SPAN tag is mysteriously missing. [Forum Guidelines] Re: Possible SPAN Luc Pattyn1-Sep-10 10:35 Luc Pattyn 1-Sep-10 10:35  I once had a lot of SPAN tags in an article, the wizard ate them all. Chris is checking all HTML tags he gets, and doesn't like most of them. OTOH some of them are considered OK, as is described here[^].

Re: Possible SPAN AspDotNetDev1-Sep-10 11:34 AspDotNetDev 1-Sep-10 11:34  That's perfectly fine if it takes out the SPAN tags when it renders the HTML (though, actually, I like my SPANs... don't take them from me!). However, it should not modify the original message so that it is different when I go back in to edit it. Also, the behavior is inconsistent. The first time I post the message, the SPAN stays. If I then edit the message, that is when it disappears (if I were to post that edit, the SPAN would be missing from the rendered HTML too).

Jystad, 2001 Re: Menu Chris Maunder1-Sep-10 2:38 Chris Maunder 1-Sep-10 2:38  I know there's an issue with IE7, but not with FireFox. You've Ctrl+F5 on FF? The CSS update was weeks ago so it should have come through by now, but just in case... cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: Menu DaveyM691-Sep-10 3:15 DaveyM69 1-Sep-10 3:15  I can replicate on IE8, the > merges into the end of the text on: Application Lifecycle C/C++/MFC IT & Infrastructure Web Development Edit: Only with compatability mode ON Dave If this helped, please vote & accept answer!

Re: Menu DaveyM691-Sep-10 4:43 DaveyM69 1-Sep-10 4:43  Perhaps a CSS issue then as that has a different style applied to it? Dave If this helped, please vote & accept answer!

Re: Menu Chris Maunder1-Sep-10 4:52 Chris Maunder 1-Sep-10 4:52  For the non-heading entries the difference is that there are CSS rules not being applied. I've been playing around and have an interim (read: dodgy, but better than nothing and I have bigger fish to fry) solution. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Suggestion to CP for two things Hiren solanki1-Sep-10 0:11 Hiren solanki 1-Sep-10 0:11  1. Author should have knowledge of who has bookmarked the article. 2. Author should have knowledge of who has voted for the article.

Those who bookmark should be able to do so privately 2. Those who vote should be able to do so privately cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: Suggestion to CP for two things Hiren solanki1-Sep-10 0:47 Hiren solanki 1-Sep-10 0:47  hmm. its clash Now, To whom to believe Author or Audiance ?? Anyway i needed those two things so i asked, I Know codeproject know better then me. But I think It is not any confidential thing that one should hide, Hiren Solanki "Good judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgment" My Latest Article Convert Numeric Currency into words ( For INDIAN Currency Only )
