Re: Consistant Low Voting Chris Maunder30-Aug-10 4:02 Chris Maunder 30-Aug-10 4:02  He's entitled to his opinion, and he is providing opinions, not just spam or targeted down voting. Maybe he could be more tolerant, but I also know that others truly wish that many question posters would think a little more as well. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: Consistant Low Voting Kunal Chowdhury «IN»30-Aug-10 23:25 Kunal Chowdhury «IN» 30-Aug-10 23:25  OMG!!! It's a consistent 1 vote with the reason "fake answer" in most of the cases. Somewhere he used the term "nonsense" too. Don't he have any work than discouraging others voting down?

I also noticed when trying to add my first answer that the buttons above the edit screen were not present, and the emoticons had been replaced by a link. It's time for a new signature. Re: Q&A Editor wirdness Ankur\m/29-Aug-10 23:52 Ankur\m/ 29-Aug-10 23:52  The CheckBox saying "Ignore HTML in text (good for code snippets)" below the editor was checked. So it ignored the HTML. I just unchecked the CheckBox and it's all fine now. ..Go Green.. Re: Q&A Editor wirdness Richard MacCutchan30-Aug-10 2:29 Richard MacCutchan 30-Aug-10 2:29  But that flag should be taken from my settings; when you edit the message it should be from yours. As you say, it is OK now, so I will need to take a more careful look next time. Thanks. It's time for a new signature. Re: Q&A Editor wirdness Ankur\m/30-Aug-10 2:43 Ankur\m/ 30-Aug-10 2:43  Richard MacCutchan wrote: But that flag should be taken from my settings; Correct. Few days back, I was having similar problems. The CheckBox was unchecked by default and I had some content filter saved automatically. But that was there for few hours and so I didn't report a bug here. Edit: Just noticied, there are posts above talking similar things. Richard MacCutchan wrote: when you edit the message it should be from yours. No, it is not like that. When you edit a post, the settings are taken from what the last user saved. At least in this case, this is what I have noticed every time. ..Go Green.. Re: Q&A Editor wirdness Richard MacCutchan30-Aug-10 3:42 Richard MacCutchan 30-Aug-10 3:42  I think I need to look at all the settings on the page quite carefully before I try any more edits. It's time for a new signature. A minor issue in Q&A formatting/ adding answer. Ankur\m/29-Aug-10 20:47 Ankur\m/ 29-Aug-10 20:47  I was improving the formatting of this[^] answer. It contains a script tag with alert box. So for every preview change I was getting an alert. I know it is expected behavior but it is not required and is annoying. Can we have this fixed? ..Go Green.. Re: A minor issue in Q&A formatting/ adding answer. Chris Maunder30-Aug-10 3:59 Chris Maunder 30-Aug-10 3:59  Which browser? I've just been trying to replicate and I can't. All script is (meant to be) stripped out or HTML encoded. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: A minor issue in Q&A formatting/ adding answer. Ankur\m/30-Aug-10 18:35 Ankur\m/ 30-Aug-10 18:35  Okay, I tried it again and didn't get it. I compared the last version to check what was it that caused this issue? And the following test could replicate it. I removed the PRE tags and selected the code-snippet and clicked 'code block'. All fine. Now I tried adding language to the PRE tag. I started writing lang="j and the alert box popped up. I think, if you roll it over to the last version and try editing for formatting, you could see the behavior again. This is a very rare case, but I hope you will look into the issue and show us a solution. ..Go Green.. Re: A minor issue in Q&A formatting/ adding answer.

I've added a bug entry. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP More spam Peter_in_278029-Aug-10 19:52 Peter_in_2780 29-Aug-10 19:52  He's posted one message (so far). http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=7399159[^] Software rusts.

Conversely it might be a good idea to demote a question to a comment (e.g. when the OP posts an Answer to their own question in reponse to an answer) ragnaroknrol The Internet is For Porn[^] Pete o'Hanlon: If it wasn't insulting tools, I'd say you were dumber than a bag of spanners. Re: Q&A Suggestion Promot comment to answer and demote answer to comment Sandeep Mewara29-Aug-10 5:00 Sandeep Mewara 29-Aug-10 5:00  Based on earlier discussions here, 'Answer conversion to a Comment' is already on TO-DO list and pretty high. Re: Q&A Suggestion Promot comment to answer and demote answer to comment Keith Barrow29-Aug-10 5:08 Keith Barrow 29-Aug-10 5:08  I really should've checked that thing..... ragnaroknrol The Internet is For Porn[^] Pete o'Hanlon: If it wasn't insulting tools, I'd say you were dumber than a bag of spanners.

I think it should come up once the member has selected any radio button. BTW I am using FF 3.6.8. Re: Comment to your vote - Q & A Chris Maunder29-Aug-10 7:36 Chris Maunder 29-Aug-10 7:36  We used to have this but we stopped because if members didn't have javascript enabled they couldn't vote, and/or the layout was screwed (depending on which path we chose). Our current method relies on CSS, not javascript, to show the comment box so it works either way. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: Comment to your vote - Q & A AspDotNetDev30-Aug-10 6:56 AspDotNetDev 30-Aug-10 6:56  You can use both CSS and JavaScript, that way those with JavaScript get the best behavior and those with CSS still get functioning behavior. Applying styles directly to the elements using JavaScript will override the CSS (or you could change a class using the JavaScript, which would have the same effect). [Forum Guidelines] Re: Comment to your vote - Q & A Chris Maunder30-Aug-10 6:58 Chris Maunder 30-Aug-10 6:58  Yes you can. What logic flow would you suggest? We've tried a few and I'm open to suggestions. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: Comment to your vote - Q & A AspDotNetDev30-Aug-10 10:13 AspDotNetDev 30-Aug-10 10:13  Have some CSS classes that popup the textbox when the user mouses over certain elements... you'd use a hover pseudo class for that (I'm guessing you do this now). Set the classes on the HTML elements so this CSS gets used. When the page loads, have some JavaScript to remove those classes (so they will not be used by those who have JavaScript enabled). When a radio button is selected, add a class (using JavaScript) that displays the textbox. When "Vote" is clicked, hide the textbox, change the vote average, reset the radio buttons, and show the "Reason for my vote of x" comment. If JavaScript is enabled, this can be done using AJAX. If there is no JavaScript, this can be done with a postback (I imagine you do this now). [Forum Guidelines]
