I think all Australian's are born Bruce and then have to change their names to something like ... um ... Chris.
Generalisation alert: all australians are either Bruce or Sheila.

It seems that every time I click a link to open a post for viewing the entire right side (ie everything but the left sidebar) slides down one-two pixels. Not noticable for one or two posts, but I just finished going through all 50 posts and there is quite a big gap at the top
I'm more curious if I'm the only one seeing this (WinXP Pro + IE6) or if its happening elsewhere too.

No problem, just something I noticed only when I'd go through a lot of posts and then switch from lounge to forums or forums to lounge

I just tried several times to change my profiles image. But it doesn't seem to be doing it. Is there something wrong with this at the moment?
I tried to upload "myhead.gif" in replacement of the cat picture I currently have.
The file is only 8Kb and in the image range size allowed.
No joy

It's up. Could have been a caching issue that made it seem like the new image wasn't there.

I seem to remember that there is a way of telling browsers not to use cached images on certain pages. How long does IE normally rely on cached images for before it requests the original from the server again? Or perhaps it is page hits?

Q: Why didn't Intel call the Pentium the 586?
A: Because they added 486 and 100 on the first Pentium and got 585.999983605.

IE tends to cache it. It seems to be right for me.

Chris,
First, great job at CP. I have turned many folks onto CP, and have been thanked profusely.
A suggestion. I'm very interested in .Net remoting. You have some articles on .Net remoting posted, but they are spread throughout other categories. How about creating a Remoting subcategory under .Net, and at least cross-listing the remoting articles?
Thanks for your good work. CP is worth at least twice what I pay for it! (I'd use an emoticon, but I despise those things.)

Only twice, come on man.....geez, I'm starting to think people aren't as appreciative as they once were. This place rocks, I'll add the emoticon for you.

Now that I've got your attention, wouldn't it be neat to use up even more CPU on the CP servers by tweaking the forum code suchly:
When somebody posts a link that doesn't already open in a new window, a small arrow img thingy is automatically inserted beside it with that link, but with target="aoaeu" (or whatever).

If I find the time to write the script to do that, then it would be even easier simply to insert the target=_blank tag so that links *do* open in a new window

Hey Todd
Something fishy's goin on. That's for sure. I myself encountered a different problem just now a few times in quick succession.
If I reply to a Lounge post, when the page reloads I see messages 5 to 29. The first 4 are in the previous page.
I bet someone's playing with the ASP. Now we gotta catch him.

The rumours that I am an AI bot are absolutely false. These rumours have been propogated by *them* to focus all the attention on to me, while *their* bots take over the planet. Thank y%%%% Divide by zero. Cannot proceed. Abort(y/y)?

Yep - that's by design. It's done that way so that if you reply to a thread that extends over the page you will always be returned to a page that has your message visible.
I think someone complained, not long ago, about not being able to view heir message if they replied to long threads.
The other thing was caused by the Meta tag, as shog said.
cheers,
Chris Maunder

LOL.
I've changed the way the message positioning is done. Now it only moves you around if there is no other way to make the message visible.
cheers,
