The WriteFile thread was originally posted on the Lounge. When it was moved to the correct forum it was inserted into the the list of threads using the time it was moved, rather than the time it was originally posted.

The "Quote Selected Text" button is broken on Firefox 1.5RC1 - it says "You didn't select any text to quote".

Any chance of having wap.codeproject.com? My Blackberry and me love to check the forums for new post when away from the computer. ASP.NET 2.0 is really good in Mobile now.
Cheers

Probably not WAP - at least to begin with - but definitely mobile friendly

Well the Mobile controls in ASP.NET 2.0 return WAP if the browser only accepts wap.

It would be nice to be able to see an article's stats from the "My Articles" section.
For example,
If I have publihshed 2 articles and I go to "My Articles" I only get links to the articles. In order to see how the articles are doing (in terms of popularity and voting) I have to go to each of the articles.
I think it would be neat for the "My Articless" section to display at least the following stats about each article (published by the logged in user):
* Views
* Number of votes the article has received
* Article Rating
* Popularity
* Date/time of last posting (thread) to the article
* Total number of posts to the article
All of the items listed above can be found by navigating directly to the articcle, but it would be nice to have a summary of this data in this section.
Anyway, just an idea ... you guys at CP do a wonderful job

Is it possible to get an email from code projects every time one article presents on the bookmarks is updated.
This way any user that have bookmarks would be notified of updates on his favorites.
Thanks

If you provide a button 'Followup' (or something) next to each article on the latest articles[^] would be great.
When you click the button (ex: 'Read Later') then it should store (just like new AJAX style voting) into your settigs something like 'My Followups' or 'My Todo Readlist'. (like current My Bookmarks)
Somedays the latest articles list grows so fast, the article which I want to read will be disappear from the list. Then I have to check the old CP newsletters for that article.  Right now it takes long time to go through each article (that too if I don't receive the timeout/500/crunching errors) and decide is it good to store into my bookmarks or not.
If you provide the 'followup articles' option, at my leisure I can just open the followup list and read the articles.
Chris, I hope this request is not in your followup list

I use browser bookmarks for that, What if CP times out while bookmarking the link you want to bookmark?

Hello All,
I think that it would be helpful to have some indication of the number of results when doing a search. Right now, there is a "Next Page" and "Previous Page", but nothing says how many pages there are, or the number of return results. This would be more handy the more general a search is (if I do a very general search, I don't want to sort through 100's of Next pages).
Speaking of general searches, it might be nice to be able to subsearch within search results.
Also, it would be nice to be able to search a particular area by default (like the Filter in the navigation area on the left), instead of or in addition to just Articles or Authors.
FWIW,
Paul

This is probably the only feature missing from The Code Project...I never know how many pages of results there are and never know how good my search actually is.

I think an option to view posts in a forum that have not receivd any responces would be helpful.
For example, my time to assist in VC++ forum is limited. I read most all questions, but I skip responding to those I think soemone else will be able to readily answer. Now, suppose they have gone unanswered for a week or more, it is harder to locate them again without all the overhead of the existing responses to other posts. It would be convenient to somehow review posts that don't have any responses.

after a week or more, the original poster might not be so interested in the solutino again, coz he might have solved it somehow.

Hi !
Something that could be usefull to add on the programming forums: a sticky (don't know if it is the right word ) message that describes how to ask correct questions (so describing that it must be clear, use the code tags if it shows code, ask for a specific question, clear description of the problem, ...). There are quite a lot of questions that cannot be answered due to the lack of information and people need to ask for more infos.
I think that if even a minority of new users take the time to read it before posting, that would be great. And if somebody doesn't follow these rules, we can simply answer by making a link to the message (and, flame the guy without being ashamed of  ).

It's questionable if anyone who needed it would read it... but, might be worth a try.
Alternately, we could start out forum posts (for < bronze posters) with a template:
- Problem statement
- Short code snippet illustrating problem
- heart-felt plea for help
But yeah, if nothing else a sticky post would give us something to hit the lazy ones over the head with...

usally this is read only once by members, so it would a good idea to send as an email to the user when he joins in kinda welcome kit.

Chris,
there are good featured articles but the one shown can change when you navigate back to the home page.
Can we have say a 25-50 item history that is accessed with a right arrow the way you have a right arrow for the list of tutorials?
Thanks.

I think it's about time we had some categories for WPF and WCF stuff. I'm messing around with that WPF at the moment. Perhaps it will trigger a renaisance to the days when this site was all about quality exciting MFC controls.

The utility I wrote target C# as well as other Dot Net languages, Delphi ,
Java and unmanaged C++ developpers.
The article is positionned in the "C# Programming section" and in the
"Debug and Tracing" section :
All Topics, C#, .NET >> C# Programming >> Debug and Tracing
Java and C++ developpers don't have "Debug and Tracing" links to this
article.
Without changing the URL article, is it possible to add cross link for these
other languages in a future?

Chris,
There have been plenty of complaints over the days/months/years regarding the 500 errors seen here on CP. I am not going to pretend like I know what causes these errors, but I am going to assume that better servers might/would help with this. I'm thinking if you can get everyone (or just some) CPians to donate $1 to you, you would have plenty of money to purchase what you need (this based off the current user base of 2million).
I think everyone can afford $1 and a stamp ...
Just a thought.

A CP Supporter status purchase[^] is a good way to give something back to the community. Slightly more expensive than your $1 suggestion but a small price to pay for a professional resource that makes my programming life better and easier.
