There are articles across many subjects at various levels includign tutorials.
Could we have a list of all tutorials because I find sometimes it can provide a quick reference to familiarising myself with a range of topics ?

I do believe you have a font tag left open in the ASP .NET code section.

Any chance of adding an RSS feed for all our bookmarks? Another one for articles may be useful to some.

One frustrating part of CodeProject is trying to help someone and not being able to adequately present the code as the <pre> and <code> tags eat all tabs and spaces before the code; thereby not allowing any indentation. Is there a way around this?

Hey Tom
<pre> tags do take spaces.
int main()
{
for(int i=0; i<10; i++)
x.Add(i);
return 0;
}
For <code>, you need to use
1<br />
2<br />
3<br />

 Are you seeing spaces in your main block?? I'm not. Everything is left-justified.

Ok. I get it now. It works in IE and not FF. What's the deal with supporting FF. I thought I had read threads that CP now supported FF

Since the point of "pre" is to turn off the "all consecutive spaces get collapsed into one" parsing rule, FF is seriously horked if it's eating the spaces in a <pre> block. Maybe the CSS styles are doing something funky that FF doesn't like.

In netscape6.css, there's a rule that looks like this:
.messagecontent
{
white-space: normal;
}
Since <font class="messagecontent"> tags wrap the text inside <pre> tags, the correct behavior is lost.
Solutions:
1) Remove that rule.
2) Stop wrapping text within <pre> blocks in those crazy font tags.
But wait - why would #2 ever exist?
Well, it seems that the site designers weren't really so stupid as to throw in a tag having no purpose other than to ruin the default behavior of the pre tag. As downloaded, the source indicates the font tag is supposed to be outside of the pre tag (and the rest of the message). But, for some reason, it's never closed... and that's where things get a bit weird. Both IE and FF handle malformed HTML reasonably well. But they do so in rather different ways. FF, it seems, closes the tag immediately and then goes wild, duplicating the unclosed tag wherever it might have been meant to apply. So we get extra font tags scattered throughout the message text... including within the pre block. Thus the obvious solution is:
3) close the freakin' font tag!

Yep. As in preserve formatting. Looks like shog figured it out. Should be easy enough for the CP folks to fix.

The few times (three, to be precise) that I have posted a query in the "mini-forum" that is at the foot of each Article on this site, I have been presented with a "Page cannot be found" error - the posting does get through, but still...

Many times there are very interesting questions in the forum which would be interesting to know the answer. In these cases I usually keep going back to those questions to see if anyone answered them. I think it would be beneficial to add capability to be copied on the response of specific messages posts.

Does the DDE functions in matlab work for every programs? I asked this since the examples i found in the internet are mostly about using DDE to connect matlab only with excel or winword
Thanks in advance

General Discussions, or a language sepcific forum would be the correct place for this question, but I 'll give an answer anyway. DDE was an early version of cross process communication based on windows messages. It saw it's peak in popularity with windows 3.1. I would be supprised if many applications support DDE these days.

When posting or replying to messages on this forum, there is a checkbox below the message area says
"Do not treat <'s as HTML tags"
Negatives are not a good idea in such situations - leaving it unticked is then a sort of double-negative required to traat them as tags -which is fact the default. I have to think this through each time, and I'm sure others have got it wrong on occassions. Better would be the more positive statement:
"Treat <'s as HTML tags"
and have the box ticked by default (if you want to keep the default the same as it is now.)
Now then... this message contains <.... do I tick this box or don't I....? Yes, I think so... Yes, I know, there is a preview button...
cheers

He's back... as a screensavers.com ad on the side of John Simmons' article "String Parsing Class". Also, at the bottom of this page is the "Earn Degree Now" ad from ASU (I think...)
I realize that CP needs money, but I think more relevant ads would be more effective. (And the moment we get a 'lower my bills' click-your-state ad with the super-long bouncing pig or the #$^*$@% gingerbread man, ...  )

hi,
I think it would be nice to somehow highlight "Do not treat <'s as HTML tags" text (red and bold?), or maybe reformulate the text... lot of people are confused, like "who the hell ate my XML tags??" 
yes, it's fairly obvious what "Do not treat <'s as HTML tags" means, but again and again I see lot of post duplicated (in better case  ) because of this.
Any ideas?
just my 2 cents
