Re: Remove distinction between unedited and edited knockNrod19-Sep-10 14:58 knockNrod 19-Sep-10 14:58  Beats me, I was searching the archives for help on CSS for articles. Without darkness, there are no dreams. -Karla Kuban A very nice feature lost? XiangYangLiu3-Aug-02 0:08 XiangYangLiu 3-Aug-02 0:08  Previously, if one article references another article and the referenced article got moved by the editor, when you click the out-dated link, CP will find and display the correct link. Unfortunately, the feature is gone now. CP will only tell you "Page not found". Re: A very nice feature lost? Chris Maunder3-Aug-02 19:20 Chris Maunder 3-Aug-02 19:20  It's still there. Sometimes though it simply can't find the article, or if an article has been removed then it work work either. any particular article you were looking for? I'll double check. cheers, Chris Maunder Re: A very nice feature lost? XiangYangLiu4-Aug-02 2:37 XiangYangLiu 4-Aug-02 2:37  Yes, it works now after you changed the title back to "Executing commands on a remote machine". The article was referenced in another article of mine, somehow the feature doesn't work if the title is changed. Re: A very nice feature lost? Chris Maunder4-Aug-02 4:03 Chris Maunder 4-Aug-02 4:03  Actually there was a typo in the script which I fixed cheers, Chris Maunder The "THE CODE PROJECT" font... Daniel Strigl1-Aug-02 22:07 Daniel Strigl 1-Aug-02 22:07  Can anyone tell me where I can find the font, which is used in the "THE CODE PROJECT" logo in the top of the site down the banner. The "New" notification Ryan Johnston31-Jul-02 14:26 Ryan Johnston 31-Jul-02 14:26  I really like the "New" notification that appears next to new posts, but I think it could be cool to incorporate some client side logic into it. It would be really handy if the "New" went away after a user have clicks on a post. That way it will be easier to see which posts are actually new to the user. Currently it gets really hard to keep track of what you have read, and what you haven't in one of the massive threads that grows very quickly (When there are like 25 different "new" posts). Actually, after thinking about how to implement that feature, it is probably way more work than it is worth. I'm still going to post this, because it is the only thing about these awesome forums that I think could really help make them better.

LOL, I can just imagine the cookie handling code that would manage to do that and how big the cookies would get after awhile (you would have to keep track of every single post read, and I read a lot of posts everyday.) Not too mention the client-side load that would put on the client (scripting languages in general are not very performance orientated.) Of course you could do it on the server-side, but then that means some new tables in the CP database and blam, there goes all the extra scalability Chris has eeked out of the code already. I think most of us would prefer to keep the forums as they are if that means the performance stays as it is. While this feature you mention is cool, it would throw performance out the window and we would all start moaning regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa Re: The "New" notification Ryan Johnston7-Aug-02 8:46 Ryan Johnston 7-Aug-02 8:46  Paul Watson wrote: I can just imagine the cookie handling code that would manage to do that and how big the cookies would get after awhile (you would have to keep track of every single post read, and I read a lot of posts everyday.) It would be kind of nasty, but keep in mind that you would only have to keep track of the posts that have been read up until the time they would have naturally fallen off the "new" classification (Perhaps expiring cookies would work for this). That is probably less than 200 posts (probably only gets that high durring a flame war) at any given time. What do you think?

That's an intersting thought, maybe we should talk to Chris and see if he likes the idea of changing the name of Member since to something like "Dark Shadowy Bob-like Thing years"?

Avoiding double posts Peter Occil30-Jul-02 5:04 Peter Occil 30-Jul-02 5:04  When browsing the forums, I occasionally see two identical topics posted accidentally, usually by pressing the Submit button more than once. To prevent this, I suggest that after the user pushes the Submit button, that the button be disabled and that the user is notified that the post is being submitted. Peter O. Re: Avoiding double posts ColinDavies30-Jul-02 23:24 ColinDavies 30-Jul-02 23:24  I think the problem is caused often by some sort of delay. I have posted then recieved a server error, Next I have hit the Back button and gone back, And then I have submitted again. The second post appears to get logged first ??
