Thank you. That would really make it very user-friendly.

I just observed a link called 'My CodeProject' and it has a cool section called Refresh. I just was playing around it and found two issues:
1) The validation exception displays if an invalid character is punched in to the textbox but the page also refreshes with the default value. I think the page refresh should not be allowed.
2) Also, if a large value is given through querystring, it accepts and feeds it to the textbox and my IE choke till I managed to reset to default value.
Otherwise, I feel that this is a very nice innovative page.

This is not a SQL injection issue. There was definitely a lack of checking and cleaning Querystring data, but there was definitely nothing server side exposed.

An out-of-bounds value made the page refresh every second, that would actually lead to DoS Attack on the server right?

If tens of thousands of members were viewing the page separately, then it could potentially cause a load problem but it's not a SQL injection attack and not a DoS (or DDoS) attack.
It's just a bug.

Hi,
I don't know if it should be that way but... when posting with < > like the #includes, if you don't separate the content with a space it's the same if you use the code tags or not it never comes. See here[^] and when I try to edit that message then I have...
#include <example.h> //without spaces
#include < Example.h > //with spaces <--- here comes & amp ; gt ; (without spaces) and it doesn't show the < or the >
<pre>
#include <example.h> //with code block and without spaces
#include < Example.h > //with code block and with spaces <--- here as well
</example.h></pre>
Greetings.

Didn't that HTML Tags checkbox beneath the textarea help you?

Hi Chris,
I wrote a message quoting something from MSDN and I didn't realize about the large of one line, I should have break it manually, but the thing is that after posting and realizing... I didn't get the "edit/delete" tags because they are right bounded and my message is too long, no horizontal scrollbar coming as well, so I can not go to the right side of the message to edit it.
Using IE7, the post is... this[^]

True. In the new design, the horizontal scrollbar does not come and the div just clips the overflowing text.

Still somewhat broken. It's centered but stretched very wide on my 1600x1200.

My "last visited" time is setting itself to the time I make a forum post. It has happened twice today within a 10 minute period. This makes it difficult to find the unread posts

Are you waiting over 20 mins between posts, or are you clearing cookies?

No to both. I'm keeping track of my time on this session of CP. I'll modify my post in a second with the results of posting this reply.

--edit--
Hmmm. Worked as expected from here. I'd been on for 7 minutes before posting this reply and my "last time" didn't change. I did this yesterday from my home machine and had the problem. It's IE 6 at home, 7 here at work. Is there some setting in 6 that would be clearing cookies while I'm surfing on a site? I didn't do anything beyond navigating on the site between the two posts yesterday, both of which reset the time.

In the past I've seen last visit only catching bogons in the lounge and nowhere else.

Unfortunately, one of yesterday's was in the C / C++ forum - the first one I usually visit in a session so I really noticed when I was back in the forum after posting the reply and all my nice little yellow new's were gone along with my bold forum names.
