Trying to highlight some code in a <pre> tag in QA, but it seems to have stopped working.
<pre lang="Javascript">
self.<span class="highlight">users</span>

Team,
I had been observing that BitWarden browser extension seems to be having problems in prefilling the credentials for Codeproject website.
1) The top logon auto-closes when Bitwarden fills the credentials.
2) In the login page since both signup and login panels are side-by-side, Bitwarden ends up filling both the fields.
|
|
|
|
|
That sounds like something you should be reporting to Bitwarden as a bug.

Unfortunately we can't support third party browser extensions. Having the tail wag the dog is a bad idea.

No, nobody expect that. But following the style guide to separate login/resgister -like about 99% ?- are doing will help to keep away from such simple problems.
Of course it means some work for you

There is/was/probably still is a small redesign in the works that will fix the dropdown issue.
The other issue where both fields are filled in? I could work around it but...

There's one small tweak I'd suggest: currently, the password box on the sign-up form has autocomplete="off" , which most browsers will ignore. If you change that to autocomplete="new-password" , any half-decent plugin should recognise that it's not the sign-in form, and not fill it with the current password.

As a bonus, the browser should offer to generate a new secure password for you when you complete the form.

The Code Project Page "LINQ Part 3: An Introduction to IQueryable" has a false "Download source" Link. Below are the page's two download links' Html. While "Download source" should have its own unique separate .Zip file name, is does NOT. Please fix. I definitely want the source AS WELL AS the executable.
<li><a href="/KB/cs/1240553/QueryableFun-Src.zip">Download source - 66 KB</a>
</li>
<li><a href="/KB/cs/1240553/QueryableFun-Exe.zip">Download QueryableFun-Exe.zip - 5.4 MB</a>
</li>
|

Um.
Did you look at your two links?
The two href URLs address two different ZIP files: QueryableFun-Src.zip and QueryableFun-Exe.zip .
The source download also works fine for me [Google Chrome Version 93.0.4577.82 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Win 10 Version 21H1 (OS Build 19043.1237)]
So what am I doing that is different to what you are doing?

I'd like to transfer ownership of my article to another CodeProject member. Another member is going to take it over.
How do we proceed?
Thanks.

Hi Ken,
Fire me an email at sean@codeproject.com and I'd be happy to sort that out for you.
Thanks,

When adding an image in article, img tag comes with wrong parameters as:
<img src="Sokoban1.png" height="240px" width="320px" />
instead of:
<img src="Sokoban1.png" height="240" width="320" />

There is more than one way to add images to a document. Could you please describe the steps you took to add the image.
I may have fixed the issue, but need to verify.

In article writing wizard, I 'drag and drop' an image.
image is shown on right.
I click on the 'insert' link under the image.

Thanks, now hopefully I can verify my fix.

... how some text will be converted automatically from upper case to lower case.

It’s trying to parse as HTML. Use < and > instead.

Yes I can see that. But no, I don't feel to use &xyz I more feel that the backend should take care what it tries to parse and recognize when it fails
I mean, everbody here around is writing about AI, yes also some of members here are convinced that the spam filter is AI. Now if CP does use such advance technologies, I think parsing the <cr> in a text would be trivial to distingish ...

Since many frameworks allow you to create you own tags, it would be impossible to determine if a text in this format is HTML(ish) or not.
You are the better AI, and should escape any HTML if required.

That's interesting.
Our code sanitiser should actually recognise this as a non HTML tag and simply conver the < to a < and leave the text after the < unchanged.
We convert tags to lowercase (it sorta just pops out by default like that) so it seems it could be doing the lowercase conversion then checking if it's a legit tag and encoding brackets instead of the other way around.
