Bottom of the screen Look for the links that say Fixed and Fluid. You've selected Fixed. Change it to Fluid and all should be good again.

Yeah, some Code Project oddity. Maybe they were upgrading or something. Happened to me the other day too.

I am still having trouble in Q&A pasting text which contains HTML tags such as <pre>. I want the editor not to convert the < and > characters to < and > strings but no longer have the option, although it still exists in the general forums.

I just pasted
Quote: as <pre>. I want the editor not to convert the < and > characters to < and > strings but no longer have the option, although it still exists in the general forums.
in QA and it popped up the paste dialog nicely, and also has the "encode" button at the top of the textarea for overriding.
Which browser are you using?

I have to agree with Richard - most of the time it doesn't pop up the box, just get it wrong and leave it. It will even muck up text after the insertion point at times - I haven't worked out any obvious reason, I'm too busy swearing under my breath - Chrome, latest version (19.0.1084.46)

Using Chrome 19.0.1084.46 :
If I paste
<pre>some stuff</pre>
it stays 'as is'.
But if I paste:
This is some stuff
<pre>some stuff</pre>
I get
<pre lang="xml">This is some stuff
<pre>some stuff</pre></pre>

Every now and then, posts get downvoted for no apparent reason. This might annoy those who get the down votes (I know there are those among you who don't care about reputation, but bear with me), so why not even the playing field by randomly doling out down votes using an automated service? That way, when people get a random down vote for no apparent reason, they can just cool their jets and think "meh, was probably just a random reputation reduction". Though when they post something that maybe they shouldn't have, they will recognize the down vote as likely real.
You should consider this post a joke (unless you'll actually do it, in which case it's a suggestion).

Just so we don't get off on the wrong foot, this is the type of joke that belongs in the Soapbox.

I hope you know my post was a joke. Forgot to put the silly little joke icon on it.

I do now. If you wanted me to know it was a joke, you should have put the suggestion icon on it.

It is extremely difficult to convey emotion, body language, context, and intent, online...as we all know.

Hi there,
So I have recently been updating some of my articles, today my JavaScript Image Fader article. Now the publishing updates process works fairly well, it's just there is something that always confuses me. I often save draft version with "Work in progress check" and so when I view the new article it has the status "Composing" in yellow. This is fine. But then when I un-check the "Work in progress" box and click publish, there's nothing to tell me that it's actually in the approvals queue. The new article still says "Composing" in the corner, not "Pending" or something similar.
I think it would be nice if the Status of the article could be shown as "Pending" or "Waiting Approval" after clicking publish on an update, just to make it clear that the article is in the pipeline and is not still "Composing", as it says at the moment.
Thanks,
Ed
(P.s. If of course this is already supposed to happen then this becomes a bug report because it hasnt the past two times I've updated my articles  )

The status is meant to change to "Pending". Elina will take a look first thing Monday. Either it's a bug or you're seeing a cached version (which is still a bug IMO)

Thanks very much, I have refreshed my browser several times and even just deleted my cache and it still says composing so I don't think it is a caching issue. I'm using the latest version of Chrome - which usually does a proper refresh when you hit the refresh button anyway.
Happy to help if you need me to try anything else out
Ed

I've found chrome to historically be the worst with holding on to cached versions, but I'm hoping this has been fixed. Regardless, it sounds like the problem is at our end.
Is there an article in particular I can dig into?

Hi Ed,
Thanks for reporting and sorry for the trouble.
I logged in as you and changed the status of the article to pending.
To change the status of the article you click on the "pencil" icon close to the status.
You can go straight to available as well, if you want.
Sincerely,
Elina Blank

Wow that was a fast response! Thanks! Okay I understand how that works and will remember that in future. I presume I can only go straight to available because of my CP status is that correct? Or can anyone who's updating an article do that?
Thanks once again,
Ed

Hi again,
If editor is updating your article, he/she can change article's status as well.
And you can change article's status.
I will make the required fix to be more obvious when un-checking the "work in progress",
but can not promise that it will be done today.
Thanks for your understanding
Sincerely,
Elina Blank
Life is great!!! Enjoy every moment of it!
