Sounds like a plan. But I doubt how successful it would be. The reason is that alot of people asking queries here are half-assed and they won't bother to come back and click the "SOLVED" button after their query is solved. With the current system, anybody could mark answers as useful by voting 5.

You have come to prove that when [SOLVED] is in the subject line, people clearly continue
to read and reply, so it does not work.

- make Visual display line numbers: Tools/Options/TextEditor/...
- show exceptions with ToString() to see all information
- before you ask a question here, search CodeProject, then Google

It is more an attitude issue to show his gratitude when his problem is solved that he gratefully acknowledges the help that he has got from the public discussion board.

No - that misses the point of the Coding Horrors forum. Show me some bad, bad code. Don't show me a design that may not suit what others are doing.

Chris,
I actually wanted this Move for the reason that IE 7 terribly misses even the backward compatibility issue. When you have a semicolon in the filename, the File Download dialog shows a wrong info. In IE it manages to show the File Type but IE 7 breaks its own settings of 'Inspect file by content instead of file name' and shows 'Unknown File Type'.

So I was thinking about those fellows who vote an article --usually down-- without even reading it. Don't know if this has already been suggested, but what about to add some kind of timer to disable the voting button until n minutes have passed since the page was loaded, where "n" might be calculated according to the number of lines the article has with an aproximate on how long does an average person take to read a line?

Haste makes waste.
Why should we bother about half-brain-pals? Just ignore them. A real good article would automatically earn good credits in no time, in fact, breaking the poisons seeded by the sinister Univoters.

Yes, I know. Particularly I don't mind --furthermore, I only have 3 articles published  . Still there are many people who mind, so I believe this wouldn't take too much effort... Just a thought.

I think considering the storm of 'Univoter Menace' sometime about a fortnight back, Chris & Co should be working on it. Most probably, we should be finding some robust means in the next new version of CodeProject that they are planning.

I was wondering how the articles are chosen. I assume it's the top ten rated articles in month?
I'm kinda curious why my article[^] isn't listed. It was submitted in July and has a decent rating.
Mind you, this isn't a big deal and not a complaint. I wouldn't have a prayer against the competition this month.

The articles are chosen based on rating on the day the vote form goes up. It can happen that on the day one article is voted higher than another and gets in, then the day after the votes change and the article would, given a new vote form, no longer be in the running.

Understood, thanks.
I've been really impressed with many of the articles submitted to Code Project over the past couple of months. Maybe I'm just paying more attention, but there have been some jaw-dropping submissions lately.

I've increased the caching - that may help.
