Re: Formatting posts - how can I indent? Nish Nishant14-Jul-05 19:26 Nish Nishant 14-Jul-05 19:26  Works only on IE. Doesn't work on FF - FF shows your pre snippet with zero indentation, Mike. For FF, use pre tags and then use &nbsp; for space Re: Formatting posts - how can I indent? Michael Dunn14-Jul-05 19:59 Michael Dunn 14-Jul-05 19:59  I remember this came up a few weeks ago, isn't that caused by a bug in the CSS that the forum uses? --Mike-- Visual C++ MVP LINKS~!

Possibly - since I am sure FF renders pre tags correctly in normal cases. Re: Formatting posts - how can I indent? Shog915-Jul-05 6:34 Shog9 15-Jul-05 6:34  Not the CSS - the HTML. CP has an unclosed font tag at the beginning of each message, and because of how FireFox deals with unclosed tags, and the styles in place on that specific tag, it breaks the behavior of <pre> in messages. Ave Shog9, CP-addicti te salutant! - K(arl), The Soapbox Re: Formatting posts - how can I indent? Shog915-Jul-05 6:40 Shog9 15-Jul-05 6:40  Firefox breaks because CP puts an unclosed <font> tag in the messages. To work around this, you can put a closing tag in yourself. So, this indentation works in firefox! My god, you're a genius! - Jörgen Sigvardsson, The Lounge Re: Formatting posts - how can I indent? Andy Brummer15-Jul-05 7:45 Andy Brummer 15-Jul-05 7:45  That's sweet You could go the standard IT route and have your script automatically add it in as a workaround... I can imagine the sinking feeling one would have after ordering my book, only to find a laughably ridiculous theory with demented logic once the book arrives - Mark McCutcheon Re: Formatting posts - how can I indent?

PJ Arends14-Jul-05 10:11 PJ Arends 14-Jul-05 10:11  If you do not want to use <pre> tags as Mike suggested, then you can use &nbsp; for each space     4 spaces         8 spaces "You're obviously a superstar." - Christian Graus about me - 12 Feb '03 "Obviously ???  You're definitely a superstar!!!" - mYkel - 21 Jun '04 "There's not enough blatant self-congratulatory backslapping in the world today..." - HumblePie - 21 Jun '05 Within you lies the power for good - Use it! Re: Formatting posts - how can I indent? normanS14-Jul-05 20:02 normanS 14-Jul-05 20:02  Thanks to all (Mike, PJ, Nishant) for the suggestions - I have printed and will try them. How about adding a "Space" button in the formatting tools? A counter for tracking downloads Anonymous13-Jul-05 16:00 Anonymous 13-Jul-05 16:00  Why don't we display a count of the number of downloads of the code/project associated with an article. And calculate popularity according to the number of downloads. Instead of giving more importance to user rating why don't we give more importance to popularity. RSS feeds on article discussion boards Michael P Butler13-Jul-05 3:47 Michael P Butler 13-Jul-05 3:47  I'm guessing this has already been asked for... I'd like to be able to subscribe to a specific article's comments message-board via RSS so that I can be informed when new questions and answers are posted. It would certainly help to stay involved in the discussions going on about an article, as having to keep going to check the article for new posts is a real time consuming activity.

Re: Download counter Alexander Kent15-Jul-05 10:32 Alexander Kent 15-Jul-05 10:32  I agree a download counter would be nice ~Alexander Kent subforums (Steven Hicks)n+112-Jul-05 10:37 (Steven Hicks)n+1 12-Jul-05 10:37  Have the posts organized by subforms, but only allow users to post in the root forum and the posts get filtered automatically and/or manually into the subforums. This could filter out all the programming questions in the lounge. -Steven Hicks CPA CodeProjectAddict Actual Linux Penguins were harmed in the creation of this message.

Also, on Firefox, clicking it brings me to this wonderful page... You must be careful in the forest Broken glass and rusty nails If you're to bring back something for us I have bullets for sale... Re: PDC ad Toby Opferman13-Jul-05 19:50 Toby Opferman 13-Jul-05 19:50  Move mouse to bottom of screen, click the little "e" and then go to the page and re click on the ad. No need to make life harder than it needs to be! 8bc7c0ec02c0e404c0cc0680f7018827ebee Re: PDC ad Shog914-Jul-05 5:57 Shog9 14-Jul-05 5:57  Toby Opferman wrote: No need to make life harder than it needs to be! Which is why i posted this thread, and then put thoughts of PDC out of my head. (FWIW, it seems to be fixed now) My god, you're a genius! - Jörgen Sigvardsson, The Lounge Drop Down List Michael Martin11-Jul-05 6:57 Michael Martin 11-Jul-05 6:57  Can you add all the forums to the Drop Down List? Hardware for one is not listed, this means I have to go to say Soapbox and then click Hardware. I getting old, am lazy and on top of all that Aussie, so extra work (like clicking and waiting) goes against my national image.

Try hitting Ctrl+F5 - the old javascript include may have been cached on your system. Don't worry, I'm looking out for the lads back home. cheers, Chris Maunder Re: Drop Down List Michael Martin12-Jul-05 3:39 Michael Martin 12-Jul-05 3:39  Chris Maunder wrote: The hardware forum is in the drop down. It's not there, what forum is listed directly above it? Just incase I'm suffering from male blindness.

I'm not mad after all, I am seeing exactly what you are describing. I reckon Chris has paid Agnihothora to play along and mess with my mind.
