I'm getting lots of grey blocks containing the message above; they appear to be in areas normally displaying ads. Also, I'm seeing a number of HTML fragments displayed in various parts of the site. If it's any help, I'm using Opera tonight, but I was seeing similar anomalies at work today using Chrome. I've all but given up on IE now - it's hopeless...
[EDIT]
I just checked the grey bits in the footer using the Inspect Element function in Opera (Microsoft hasn't a clue...). The code is a link to admt, and it's using inline HTML style information in the DIV, rather than style tags required under the new standards. Maybe it is an Opera/Chrome thing, since they're both largely compliant with current standards, and IE ignores them completely.
[/EDIT]
[EDIT2]
Yet another quirk I've noticed tonight...
When I post to the Questions & Answers section, my preview looks right, but the final post includes a bunch of escape characters (\) in front of the special characters I actually typed. Weird...

have you tried a few CTRL/F5? There has been a little earthquake, and your system may vaguely remember style parts from earlier.

Yup, that was my first thought.

Gee, that tiny little earthquake shouldn't have affected the CodeProject servers...

Is this still happening?

The appearance of HTML fragments in ad spaces has stopped, and most of the grey blocks have gone away, but as of now, the greyed out block with the "lack of style" message persists in the footer of the page.

Hi to all the CodeProject Team members who gave their efforts to redesign the CodeProject site. I found it very interesting when I first visited it today morning. First I was confused but then I got it. Here are some of my points/issues that I noticed on the new design:
- The Question & Answers menu is too long to see the last items
- Hovering on the small icon on top of Article section opens up all the menus which is pretty big and all the menus are not visible.
- In Article page, the "Browse Code" should not be visible if I don't have some code files attached to it.
- XAML files are not opening in the "Browse Code" page.
- Didn't find any difference between the Fluid layout and the Fixed layout yet.
- There should be one Voting button near to the Voting Meter. This will be more visible to the reader.
- The comments section is not rendering properly in Google Chrome. I need to Scroll Up & Down to make it render.
Overall the look is great and user friendly except those issues I covered above. I will modify this list once I got more issues over the day.
Thank you CodeProject team. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

I've tweaked this a little but I'm still not too happy with the result. Suggestions welcome
- In Article page, the "Browse Code" should not be visible if I don't have some code files attached to it.
I'm going to leave this as-is for the moment until I've finished the project that hooks up downloads and articles in a more formal manner.
- XAML files are not opening in the "Browse Code" page.
Fixed.
- Didn't find any difference between the Fluid layout and the Fixed layout yet.
Try now
- There should be one Voting button near to the Voting Meter. This will be more visible to the reader.
Voting is deliberately at the bottom of the article (and always has been). However, you can now add a comment directly through the voting system for any vote (not just 1 and 2)
- The comments section is not rendering properly in Google Chrome. I need to Scroll Up & Down to make it render.
Fixed.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for fixing those issues which I reported.
Regarding the menus (either small icon or the Q/A), I am not feeling good as those are cropping in my 15.4 inch wide monitor. Probably you can try implementing the sub menus which will be more user friendly.

I can organise the forums into fly-outs, but how would you like to see them organised? Some removed? A "more..." button? Something else?

No offense but the previous articles' layout was much better, that was unique, full screen width and detailed. The header was nice, the menu on left and complete width to the right of screen. Now its very uncomfortable to view or read the article.

At the top right, just below the ad banner, is an icon which will give you full screen viewing.
The items in the left menu are now in the top nav bar. Play around a little with it and you'll see everything that was in the left-hand bar.

I've already tested those fluid and fixed width buttons, nothing make difference. Maybe they dont work in opera

Articles -> Chapters and Sections.
Or, within any article, hover over the signpost at the left of the breadcrumb trail.

Well, I'm noticing for few days that whenever I post any message some ignorant prick vote it down, I mean why its not like article, when you're voting 1 or 2 you have to leave comment.

Sigh.
Luc just gave me a , otherwise I would tell you exactly what the problems are with the crap 1-5 voting system here.
But since he did, I will spare you.

Just received an e-mail about one Chris Maunder having updated my Tip&Trick on using PRE tags[^].
The e-mail only duplicates the T&T's content; the T&T itself looks like it looked before; the revision got incremented, the revision list shows "latest" is a major edit; and the compare facility does not work (was signaled recently somewhere inside this long thread[^]). So I have no idea what has happened.
Deeper analysis shows something has happened about the linecount feature; the text described that it wasn't functioning reliably, and that hasn't changed. The example has been modified, changing the order of some attributes, and the net result is it works in the T&T itself, it does not work in the T&T that is seen when clicking on the latest revision; and it does not work in older revisions, probably because due to an implementation bug the order matters.
I find this pretty unacceptable:
1. you have to be a detective to figure out what changes an edit session has caused;
2. the aim of the T&T (explaining what is needed to get what results) is violated, silently switching the order of some attributes, if that is what is required, should be explained until the bug is fixed.
3. the whole "minor edit" thing is questionable. How can the change be important enough to mark it not a minor edit, yet small enough not to explain it at all?
4. the revisions view clearly does not present a true view.
5. the compare facility does not work; it has worked before.

I wonder why comments aren't mandatory for all revisions?

Just noticed the "PRE bug?" thread by Hans, a few threads below this one. It explains how things got started, but doesn't really change a thing here.

I have a question: what happened with a views-per-day chart which used to be displayed below articles?

I'm not seeing it in IE8, FF3.6, Chrome. Is there a secret?

The Stats tab.
It needs to be in its own tab to provide room for other stuff you've long held your breath for.
