Re: "peterchens favorite articles" Nick Parker3-Jun-02 10:03 Nick Parker 3-Jun-02 10:03  That works for me, just add another bit flag in the database, a little more code, and call it a day. Oh wait that is just me mimicking an end user. LOL Nick Parker Count Number of views Gevik Babakhani31-May-02 20:50 Gevik Babakhani 31-May-02 20:50  Is there any way to see how many times an article got viewd Gevik Babakhani Re: Count Number of views Starmanager31-May-02 21:08 Starmanager 31-May-02 21:08  If you are using a database, even an Access DB, try embedding and ASP Script (providing the article is HTML format) that connects to your database and updates an number field each time the article gets loaded into a browser for viewing.

Re: Count Number of views Chris Maunder31-May-02 22:21 Chris Maunder 31-May-02 22:21  As Nish has said, all articles already show the view count. Look at the top of the sidebar under 'Toolbox' and you'll see the count in bold. cheers, Chris Maunder Re: Count Number of views Nish Nishant1-Jun-02 16:55 Nish Nishant 1-Jun-02 16:55  Chris Maunder wrote: As Nish has said, all articles already show the view count Regards, Nish Native CPian.

Gevik Babakhani Error Log Mauricio Ritter31-May-02 15:16 Mauricio Ritter 31-May-02 15:16  It would be good if the editors/subeditors send us a report of what they corrected in our articles when they move them. This way we can avoid recurring in the same mistakes. I know this woulb probably give much more work to the editors than they currently have but that would make the articles more errorless.

Re: Error Log Nish Nishant31-May-02 15:25 Nish Nishant 31-May-02 15:25  Mauricio They usually only edit the formatting. Unless the grammar totally sucks they don't touch the language. If you format your HTML according to the CP specs, it'd be easier for them to move your article. Nish Regards, Nish Native CPian. Born and brought up on CP. With the CP blood in him.

I'd like to see the day when someone thinks he can edit *my* English! More seriously sometimes language has to be edited, specially when non-english speaking people submit articles. Not only language, but also spelling! Nish Regards, Nish Native CPian. Born and brought up on CP. With the CP blood in him. Re: Error Log Chris Maunder31-May-02 18:36 Chris Maunder 31-May-02 18:36  Actually we correct formatting, language, spelling, sometimes remove superflous remarks, rework the images so they fit or are smaller (to save bandwidth), reformat code (and sometimes correct code), check zip files and remove unnecessary files (.obj etc) and then ensure that the articles titles, description, section placement, keywords and level are appropriate. cheers, Chris Maunder Re: Error Log ColinDavies31-May-02 20:31 ColinDavies 31-May-02 20:31  Chris Maunder wrote: we correct formatting, language, spelling, sometimes remove superflous remarks, rework the images so they fit or are smaller (to save bandwidth), reformat code (and sometimes correct code), check zip files and remove unnecessary files (.obj etc) and then ensure that the articles titles, description, section placement, keywords and level are appropriate. w00t !!

Sometimes when I switch between forums the message boards header part losses the number of new items. I.e. moving from Visual C to COM which had 10 new items in it, when I get to COM the board says there are no new items (for all forums). Dylan Kenneally London, UK Re: Message boards new count disappears Nish Nishant31-May-02 15:07 Nish Nishant 31-May-02 15:07  That's because there is a *time* that is used to show items as new or not. After you browse for a while this *time* is advanced. Thus the number of newer items might fall if enough new posts haven't been made as have been removed! Nish Regards, Nish Native CPian.

Re: Message boards new count disappears Chris Maunder31-May-02 18:39 Chris Maunder 31-May-02 18:39  No Nish, it's because the last time you were on the site is stored as a session variable. If one of the servers restarts or you move to one of the other servers then this variable gets reset and the server thinks that the last time you were on the site was the previous sessions (which may have been mere minutes or seconds away). cheers, Chris Maunder Re: Message boards new count disappears Nish Nishant31-May-02 21:55 Nish Nishant 31-May-02 21:55  Again, I apologize for giving out incorrect info Nish Regards, Nish Native CPian.

It's a real pain in the arse going through forums thinking "have a read that before"...

Re: T-Shirt Andrew Peace31-May-02 8:32 Andrew Peace 31-May-02 8:32  He was referring to the Polo mint - "the mint with the hole". Basically they're mints (little round sweets that taste, er, minty ) with a hole in the middle. Here's a picture. -- Andrew.
