Hey Hans,
That's not correct. Even in the old days, if you put a keyword in CODE tags, say something like int or char, it would come in blue (and not in brownish red). Even back then you had to use lang="text" to ensure that no colorization took place.
Yeah but this VIW innovation seems to be new. I noticed a few ones recently as well. Though it looks alright - like Visual Studio with Whole Tomato installed

There are some articles here on CP that original authors no longer support, for whatever reason. My suggestion: if OA no longer wants to support article, he can email admin@CP, and article will be flagged with "no author attached" visual flag. Any CP member can then request admin@CP to transfer article ownership to him. Of course, this request will be reviewed by admin@CP.

 Are you serious? How can someone take ownership without permission of owner? Don't we call that stealing?
Mostly, when you see programmers, they aren't doing anything. One of the attractive things about programmers is that you cannot tell whether or not they are working simply by looking at them. Very often they're sitting there seemingly drinking coffee and gossiping, or just staring into space. What the programmer is trying to do is get a handle on all the individual and unrelated ideas that are scampering around in his head. (Charles M Strauss)

As I said in my post, "if OA no longer wants to support article, he can email admin@CP". In other words, the OA must initiate this, so no, it's not stealing, it's the OA handing over his article to someone else. Please read my post again.

I think the "owner wannabe" can still answer queries at the article discussion board, without being the actual author of the article, because the article is the hard work of the actual author. Just my thought.

You're right, and you can see a lot of examples of that happening. But in terms of collecting together bug fixes, or extending the article's code, there is really no substitute for being able to upload a new zip file to the article's page, especially if you had someone who was enthusiastic about supporting the code.

I agree with you. In that case, probably the CP admin could into that matter and make the enthusiastic person as a co-author, without transferring the actual ownership of the published material.

You know, until you mentioned it, I had forgotten about the new "co-author" feature. Maybe that would work. Thanks!

Why not leave the original article in place, but have a process whereby an enthusiast can take over a 'new edition' which acknowledges the original author (and links to the original). The enthusiast could request this and if not vetoed by the original author then it would proceed - the original article would have a clear link at the top to the newer maintained version that would collect votes and feedback separately.

When I click edit i do not get my previous text. Is it just my computer? I am using firefox and cphog.
|

Probably related to the next post...
Looks, like cphog is causing this.

Yes, without CPHog, I do see my previous text when I edit. Thanks and sorry for the bogus problem request.

Just now, in SB, I wanted to add to one of my comments. I clicked modify, typed in my added text, and hit 'post'. Next thing, only the new text was present in my comment.

If you click the link or link[^] buttons with no text selected it attempts to post your message.
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.
