It's a messed up thread - one of the CP staff would need to re-thread that specific thread. The replies currently do not show under the right post - that's why some of the replies seem odd.

Note sure, but it may have something to do with the fact that there are multiple web servers.

That sounds like the sanitizer thinks your code is actually CSS and it's replacing a possibly-harmful attribute with "removed"

It's the HTML filtering code being paranoid again. I suppose it sees onlyInstance as OnLyinstance, which, if permitted, could allow malicious users to intercept Lyinstance events and do something evil.

why don't you increase the area of applications
1) you have variety of users and can develop something for any particular big group
2) you can also sell the products (controls / utilities ) created by members (and have a share of that)(add to disclaimer that CP will not take responsibility of support / debugging / development of the product and it will be authors responsibility) where authors have provided the license type 3 (as proposed by you)(where user can use it for educational purpose and have to pay otherwise)
3) (xna ) game engine (its a bit off beat but i think there will be demand )
4) create suggestions and demand tab (link) in store front to see what people need extra / other type of products and if you don't want do work on that suggestion just flash it to developers registered (registration will cost) for that

I suggest that the IntelliTXT advertising program be dropped. It is intrusive, it complicates the database, it adds to an already cluttered sign-up screen, and it defaces articles in a highly objectionable and inexcusable manner.
And please don't say, "But it brings in revenue!" That's an argument for drug dealers and whores.
And don't say, "You can turn it off." This is a matter of principle, not taste.

Someone's got to pay for this site. Advertising revenue is down across the board right now so anything that brings in the revenue for CP is fine by me.

Like selling drugs? Like selling our daughters? Surely you must have some limits. Isn't "bad taste" a reasonable place to draw a line? How about "This adds nothing to the value of our articles, and in fact detracts from their readability?" Couldn't we draw the line there?

What in God's name does IntelliTxt have to do with drugs and prostitution? You are starting to lose me and I recommend taking this thread to the Soapbox

Nothing - unless your only justification for IntelliTXT is money.
It is legitimate to make money on a product that is both harmless and that contributes something meaningful. It is not legitimate to make money on things that are harmful or useless. My argument is that IntelliTXT ads in no way improve the articles here - in fact, they detract from them. The motivation for including them, therefore, must be less than honorable (like the motivation that inspires drug dealers and whores).

Why does it have to improve articles on this site? It is a paid advertisement and helps support this site and the ability for people to post and share their knowledge. How dense are you?

It should at least not detract from them; yet it does. When something has to be made worse to pay for itself, there's a problem. I really hope you can see that.

Then either you haven't seen it in action, or... I don't know. When I'm reading, I expect emphasis - highlighting - to be germane to the text. For example:
Is THIS sentence easier to read?
Or
Is this sentence easier to read?
Obviously, the second, because the word in italics should be in italics - it tells you the author's intent. The changes in font and style in the first case tell you nothing, and make the sentence harder to scan.
I'm amazed I have to explain this.

Ok tell you what mate, write a letter to Mr William Gates and ask him why he is such a drug dealer because of all the money he has.

Because a slightly messed up article is better than no article.

And children fed plenty with drug money are better than children fed less without. And a family car bought with money from a daughter's forced prostitution is better than no car at all. I know these examples are extreme, but you're arguing that the end justifies the means and I want you to see where that kind of reasoning leads.

Okay - fair enough. Why not negociate with CP in return for banner advertising to ask them to remove the IntelliTXT advertising but add banner adverts for your products into the mix.
Alternatively - you can help out in a smaller way by going here[^] and scrolling to the bottom of the page and purchasing "Code Project Supporter Status". It is unlikely to remove the IntelliTXT ads on its own, but if you along with enough other concerned people do that then CP won't need to use IntelliTXT advertising.

You're still arguing ecconomics, Mr Mackay. This is a matter of principle. No one should ever sell his daughter into prostitution, and no one should ever deface an article with spurious advertisments right in the text.
And don't expect me to "support" an organization that would immediately return to the same tactics under similar circumstances. "Marry this whore," you say, "and she won't have to walk the streets any more." No thanks - because if I lose my job, I'll have to walk the streets myself to find her!
IntelliTXT ads, I am arguing, are morally wrong. You cannot serve God and mammon.

 This argument and the prostitution/drugs analogy is getting old.
