... for remembering that not all of us have our desktops set for 96% DPI.
Back during the beta, the forum and article text seemed awfully small. It turns out you were using layout and font sizes in pixels. On machines set for large DPI, this made the font size very small, and difficult to read for those of us of the middle-aged persuasion.
When the new site premiered a few days ago, most of the text size issues were fixed, except for in the message forums. I didn't say anything at the time, because I thought adding a Chihuahua to the mix of alligators you were wrestling would just be insulting.
When I checked the Lounge this morning, the text was bigger. Thanks!

If you are using Firefox, the size of font should not be a problem because there is build-in zooming functionality in Firefox. For example, if you want to see the bigger text size, just press "Control" key and scroll your mouse down.

Hi,
Yesterday on this page...
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/audio-video/MIDIToolkit.aspx[^]
I could see pages and pages of messages. For some reason today I can only see the first 49, regardless of what my Layout is or how many per page I choose from the dropdown. Is something broken or am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

The date filter. Upper right between the forum list and the messages themselves.
PS you should be able to delete the duplicates (unless the new software broke it).

This particular forum (actually it's an article with comments at the bottom) doesn't have a date filter dropdown.
Just to be sure that wasn't it, I went to another forum, pulled the date filter down to 'All', then saved my options. Then I went back to the article, but alas no more than 49 comments available.
Here is what it says at the top...
Msgs 1 to 25 of 49 (Total in Forum: 655) (Refresh)
Thanks.

Thanks Chris.
Hope you can get to it soon. Those messages are really going to help me with this project I'm doing for school.
Thanks again!

Is this which cause all comments/messages not able to view?

I took the survey on the first page. After I voted, I left a message about the survey. After leaving the message, I couldn't go back and see the other messages, I was taken to a pseudo blank page (http://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/View.aspx?fid=926844&msg=2352464).
Finally, when I clicked on the button to add link text to this box, I get prompted "Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page?"

Sorry about cross posting. Thought that this might be a more appropriate forum.
I'm using FF 2.0.0.11 and when I click a link, it takes anywhere between 25-30 seconds to load the page. It's the same with IE too. I tried clearing the cache and cookies, no avail.
Also, I get too many "-- Unable to load messages due to high load or server error. Please try again --" in the lounge.
Is this a known issue or is my machine possessed?
Is this an issue with my location? I wonder if others in vicinity are facing the same problem.
I appreciate the hard work done by your team and I don't expect everything to get fixed immediately.

No it is not your machine. It has been happening to me in the UK all day long trying to access The Lounge. Funny though I can access (very slowly) other forums but not the Lounge. With both Firefox & IE7

Sorry to have to report that I'm still having to login most (but not all: darned intermittent errors) of the times I browse to CP. I'm using IE7 both here and at home with the same result.

Can you do me two favours please:
1. Go to our cookie test page[^] and confirm you have cookies working fine with us
2. Take note of the server that is failing. Look at the very bottom of the screen and in tiny font you'll see the server name.
That may help me get to the bottom of this one.

1: cookies are good.
2: web20.
and, as at 1520 (UK), web12.
and, as at 0914 (12/12) web17.
Good luck and thanks.

Moi also
The cookies test page passed fine
The web server was 17

The AVL Tree article listed under Last 10 Updates gets a Page Not Found error when you click on the link.

Thanks.
The issue here is that we create an entry for an article before the article itself is actually created. If something breaks or the author decides he or she doesn't want to continue then a bodiless entry was being left. We're fixing this up to allow authors to revisit those articles they started but didn't complete, while hiding them from everyone else.

Perhaps you can consider something like a 'Draft ' or 'Work In Progress ', which would facilitate the article authors to keep updating the content at thier leisure and once they are content, they can choose to 'Publish ' or 'Submit to CP submit (at) codeproject.com ' (through the Article Engine itself).
