This is weird. Added to the bug list. I'll try and dig in and see what's going on.
All fixed

Which forum would be best for WPF, WF, or WCF questions?
|
|
|
|

Yes, this is a minor deal, but when the article mentions a license, it refers to the Aricle License, not the source code itself. I assume the intention was to apply to the source code, but I have no idea for sure. If it was intended to apply to the article itself, there are a couple of licenses (GPL for one) that caution against using the license for documentation.

What's the difference to copyright?

Actually article and code are quite distinct and each of them could be separately copyrighted. By common sense I deduce the same copyright applies to both article and code (if not explicitely stated the opposite), but anyway IMHO the question is legitimate.

I asked, because I had read about some problems in using the GPL for documentation and publishing. Of course I can't find that information now....so maybe I misread it.
But the other reason I mention it, the article specifically states that the license is for the Article, not being sure if it applies to the code as well, I would be afraid to use the code for fear that someone might take the wording literally and not allow the use of code or derivative of the code.
I thought of this as I was reading an article that used the GPL license, but no source code was attached, only binaries.
Just food for thought.

Indeed. I agree with you on the overall.

I've reworked the wording a little to make this clearer.

There should be a validation when there is no text selected and the user is trying to select one of the toolbar items like B I U Strike Small etc. There is already one for 'Quoting Selected Text'. Without this, a careless user can leave filling up the message with junk empty tags, unnecessarily swelling up the page size and download onto the Internet pipes.

We allow empty tags so someone can place a tag set in the message then start typing into it.

I find myself in partial agreement with both of you, but feel that empty tags should be cleaned out by a validater during the posting process.
Otherwise [Microsoft is] toast in the long term no matter how much money they've got. They would be already if the Linux community didn't have it's head so firmly up it's own command line buffer that it looks like taking 15 years to find the desktop.

The "new" yellow tags on every new posts are gone when switch to next page, or click the main link of forums.

I think this would be a very useful board to add to the mix for various reasons.

Wouldn't Visual Basic/VB.NET satisfy your requirements?

Thanks for your reply, Rajesh.
Actually, I'm not a VB programmer, but I am well aware that VBA is based on the same technology as VB, hence the name Visual Basic for Applications. I was working on a plug-in for Outlook and thus needed some assistance. Please don't jump to conclusion about me.
The reason I thought that a separate message board may be useful is because some of the problems I face using VBA for Outlook are actually harder for me to solve using only a subset of the VB language. Also, one needs to know the object model for the application. These issues have made some of my questions harder to answer than straight VB questions. Also keeping all the code for one application together might be useful especially for those who are just learning VBA for a particular application.
Since you seem to be an expert in both VB and VBA, perhaps you, Rajesh, would be so kind enough to answer my question in my more involved postings. I'm sure that I, as well as the rest of the community, would benefit from your knowledge much more than your weak attempt to belittle me. I'll understand if decline because you are a C++ programmer.
I don't claim to be an expert. I ask questions. I don't favor any computer language. I don't care what is better Linux or Windows. If I don't have something I'm trying to do on a computer, I'm outdoors or enjoying friends, family, chicks, and motorcycles. I have a life.
I read your profile. The first sentence said your are friendly. Please keep it that way.
I look forward to your response in the VB/VBA forum.
Peace,
WT

That was more of a joke. Probably I missed the joke icon and there's absolutely nothing serious with my post. More often than ever, the VBA posts goes into the Visual Basic forum (along with the COM forums, whenever required). Why is that you think I'm unfriendly? I just don't get it. What's wrong with a little pun?
I am a an MFC/Visual C++ developer to the core, as you guessed. But that wouldn't stop me from writing a few lines of VBA Code. I read your query at the VB forum. I feel that it could have been a little more informative. We've got a handful of VB and .NET MVPs here and I'm sure they'll solve your problem. Start a new thread, add a small code snippet, showing how exactly you are trying to achieve your goal, which would help others understand your problem.

All posts are being marked read every time I switch forums instead of using the magic to guess when I leave and return.

This happened to me again a few minutes ago. The last time it kept happening until I did a logout/in cycle.

I just did a site update a few minutes ago - you were probably the victim of a session reset.

I am frequently getting this message since lunch time UK using both Firefox and MSIE7, even after a reboot and even using another computer in my network. (this is what Firefox is actually displaying).

I too am getting this error occasionally. In addition, after receiving this screen, if I click the "refresh" button, the page loads, but the layout is really screwy. By "screwy", I mean that the page is only colored in black & white, and columns/rows are overlapping and in strange positions. All the links still work (and appear as blue links, the only color on the page). Then if I click the same link as the one I am presently viewing, the page loads just fine. Also, the last visited time is ALWAYS the time of last refresh, which is good because it immediately shows me when I last refreshed the page, but bad because it doesn't highlight any of the forums as having new posts. Hopefully I didn't get too far off topic with this response.
Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays

It was happening for me yesterday. I think they have fixed it now. Is your upstream proxy servers caching the content?

Me too, last evening. And then the "new" yellow tags work in different way now. The site builders updated the program yesterday.
