But I guess Chris did not like the idea coz this would probably load his email server.

Full text indexing is enabled. Change tracking is on. An incremental update was done just in case.
A large boot will be applied tomorrow morning.

I'm picturing the Simpsons episode where Bart goes to Oz is sentenced to a booting. Now I'm picturing you doing the same to the server. Now I'm just creeped out and need to try a different cold medicine.

With the plythora (is that even remotely correct on spelling???) of AJAX related articles being posted, maybe CP should add a special section in for it as a sub-category under ASP.NET. AJAX is a great concept, and it'd be nice to see everything grouped together nicely like so much else on this site.

I been visiting this site for about 1 year and answered many questions in VC++ forum, Most of the questions that go unanswered are
1. Badly written question
2. The poster expects half of the project to be implemented with his one line question, like "how to write a bubble sort?".
3. The question does not belong to the forum.
4. The poster has not spend too much time investigating the problem.
5. etc.
So the escalation queue would be the questions that would belong to pulgatory questions.
For example,
http://forums.asp.net/1070328/ShowPost.aspx
This guy has dumped the whole src code which he himself says that he had not written the code and its not working for some reason.
Not many "experts" like to spend time on something that is not an athentic effort of the poster himself. (an example reason)

Prakash,
Your argument could be partially accepted though not always.
1) Poorly phrased question. Normally, some considerate persons question back the poster asking them to substantiate their stand with more data or information.
2) Implementation Request: Yes. No one can ever accept this. Perhaps questions like this need to be marked for 'Purgatory' and need to be expunged. These does not, in fact practice healthy forum discussion threads.
3)Not a proper forum: Sometimes the poster out of his desperate need for an quick resolution hastily cross posts in multiple forums. In some cases, when the forums are interrelated, you can allow this to have it answered in one and then link other queries to the this one or ask the poster or moderator to expunge the duplicate queries.
4)This is a variant of argument no. (2).
Additionally, the forum also need to discourage subjects like 'Urgent' etc.
Of course, while these contribute to some 30% of the forum posts, an 'Unanswered Classification', helps in a more granular division and to ensure two things:
(*) Bona fide questions are not skipped.
(*) Makes administration of forums efficient so that any junk postings can be cleared quickly.

CP can also bring a category called 'Unanswered Questions', which can enlist all the questions which do not have any reply threads.
But a lot of questions, I'm sure, get (a) out of date, the programmer is no longer working on the project, or (b) already answered, getting no answer here perhaps the programmer went elsewhere, to a book or colleagues for example, and got his answer, which is why he didn't repost.
This, along with the other objections, should be considered. Maybe the programmer with the unanswered questions could just repost if he wants his question answered, of course imploring people to consider it this time and/or asking what's wrong with the question if it's not understandable.

If the original poster really wanted an answer to their question, they'd come back in 2-3 days and post it again, hopefully at a different time to catch a new audience.

Hi,
While posting a hyperlink in Clipboard, CP automatically does the job of pasting it as an HTML Link and also a new Window text along with it. Cool.
But if I would like to have a particular text to be hyperlinked, just in Outlook (Ctrl +K) in Compose Window, it would be very useful too.

And Prakash,
Can you read through the suggestion again bit slowly and patiently though? It does not complain a discrepancy or error with the Link or Link (^). It would be another feature extension.
The current setup would place the same text as href value and linked text. Two times.
If you had used Microsoft Outlook (Express) or a similar HTML Editor component based on IE (MSHTML), you should have come across the CTRL+K hyperlink. And that is what is being suggested to.
Hope this clarifies your doubt.

I assume you are refering to these steps in outlook express or what ever.
1. Select a text
2. Press Ctrl-k
3. Type in the hyperlink
4. Done.
In case of CP.
1. You type in the hyperlink.
2. Select the hyperlink.
3. Click [link] or link[^]
4. A piece of text is hilighted, type over or keep as it is.
Now where is the difficult part or the extention part?

Hi CP Support Team,
Very often this week, I had been encountering this message.
----------------------------
Oops!
Hear that crunching sound? Something just broke.
Why did this happen?
Because either we screwed up in a way that wasn't immediately obvious until now, or because the ASP engine running this site has just rolled over and died, or because the site is simply having a bad hair day.
Options
Try and do whatever you did again. Try again.
Open the CodeProject home page, and then look for links to the information you want. Sure, the information you need is probably on this page, but you never know your luck in a big city.
Pray, curse, or sacrifice burnt offerings, then see 1.
The Error
The Page: : /info/error500.asp
The Time: : Saturday, October 01, 2005, 8:25:11 AM
The Server: : Web7
The Error No. : 0. That's right. The server thinks there was an error but now can't remember it. Perfect.
---------------------------------------
As a webuser it is the same AirTel Broadband Connection and IE 6.0 browser. Any webserver changes, sessionstate which seems to create this server errors in CP.
