Personally I have no clue what the various smileys mean. And in order to find out I have to go to a post screen and hover. Perhaps the code that inserts them could also insert the title and tag so user agents could give lorons like myself a hint?

html and xhtml standards require the alt attribute and the title attribute is a nice option. Besides, I still have to look. Picking one is easy (there are description to select them) the hard part is reading a post and guessing what someone means by them. The real problem is that the text is autoreplaced meaning that I have to get fancy : ) to do what I want.

I see what you mean. title would be cool, like when you hover over the forums list items.

Firstly nothing here is xhtml and html dictate nothing of the sort. NExt over time you will get to understand what the different ones mean.

Smileys can easily be misunderstood.

You said "Pick the one that looks like the attitude you're trying to convey.".
If someone interprets a smiley differently from it's intended meaning then it is ineffective. A solution might be to have words associated with the smiley, as suggested, but then it would be more effective to simply use the words, which would be less ambiguous.
Words have specific meanings defined in dictionaries. Smileys are subject to interpretaion that is not standardized.

Hello

Message Id 1949154 and 1949155 are same. How it is happening ? When posting message it will check for similar messages and usually it used to give error. What happened in this case ? Something just broke ?

Hi,
Would it be possible to mark a reply as a solution to the question posted ? I know that one can rate that post, but it does not mean that it is an answer to the question posted. I believe, that answers may be highlighted (with some different color) so that some one interested to find the solution might jump directly to the post. This system already exists in the MSDN forums.
Will it be good enough to run these 2 systems (rating and marking as a solution) parallely ?

you already have icons when you post a message. if you don't answer the question, don't select the "answer" icon...
BTW, i already thrown a request so that the author of a question could raise a "Solved" flag so that everybody can see it

I agree. Majority of times, there is no way to know, if query is solved ?

If you guys had some Code Project bumper stickers printed up I'd buy one

 I have an old car and love bumper stickers (hides the rust). The guy from WTF.com sent me one the other day. It's be fun to see people post pics of their cars with a CP sticker on it

Hello
What is the necessity to send mails to the author of thread when he itself posts one message to that thread ? 
|
|
|
|

Because otherwise how would you know what you said will be read... And anyway... what were you doing posting a message to yourself?
