My alternative Tip Calculate Business Hours[^] has been closed today. Is there any way to find out the reason?

Hi,

I created a new tip and attached source code but when I click on the download link I get the message "No download file was specified. ".

I've never faced this problem before. Is it possible to fix this please?

Here is the tip: Drag and Drop Records in ASP .NET TreeView[^]

Kind regards,

It's working fine for me. Are you still seeing the issue?

If so, which browser?

Hi,

I want to remove my article's previous revisions from published. How can I do the same?

Happy Coding... Smile | :)

If absolutely necessary, you can delete it and recreate it.

However, that is very counterproductive. For example, anybody with a bookmark to it will lose that bookmark. Also, you may lose reputation points associated with the article.

If in previous version there was some mistake and in version i hv corrected that one..what should I do??
I can't delete it bcoz, as you mentioned I will lose reputation points associated with the article

Just leave it. It really doesn't matter if an older version has a mistake you corrected. Why do you think it should?

Maybe we are talking about different things. You can just edit your article or tip/trick and only the newest revision will be displayed. A user has the option of viewing old revision of an article if they choose to, but that will not be what they get by default. Now, if you create a second article or tip/trick, then you are just making the mistake of creating a second article when you should just edit your first article. I'm not sure what the problem you are having is.

HTML5 Canvas

Hi,

I have been thinking to write an article on HTML 5 canvas. I notice that CodeProject article web pages are HTML 4.01 which translates to mean I have to host my HTML 5 canvas animation on another website. Am I right?

This posting is just to confirm this.

Thanks!!

No. All it means is that people will have to download your code; which is the standard for articles anyway.

And is it not better to preview how the code plays before going for download?
I think the OP is asking how to show preview live (other than attaching snapshots).

Surely if you're writing an article on the HTML5 Canvas you'd know enough to know that the doctype doesn't define if the canvas is available. Look closely at these forums. Notice as you hover over a message, the arrow on the left of each message? That's drawn on a canvas.

However, I'm guessing your point is you want to provide a demo in your article. We don't allow javascript to be hosted live within articles for obvious security reasons, but a downloadable page is just as effective and useful to readers.
