correct. An obscure make and model, bought in Hungary, made in China, the built-in browser is called Sarifa.

You know of it? so they've build several? Then Chris really should support it.

I'd like it too - Blackberry for me! I can read and post but it is pretty sucky. I have thought about trying another browser on it but haven't got that far yet.

Is it possible to allow the user to log in and set a "mobile" setting (from his phone) that tells the site what kind of phone they're using and render the site accordingly?
I would also suggest that you setup a "generic" mobile version that renders to a fixed height/width in case the phone isn't recognized.
Also, most smart phones allow you to turn the phone sideways for a wider view. That should probably be a profile setting as well.
Of course, I don't know if all that is necessary. Just throwing ideas out there...
BTW, I'm on an Android phone, and if I turn my phone sideways, and scroll to exactly the right position, The message breaks lines in the right place, but that's about as mobile aware as CP appears to be (for me).

As a test you can append ?mobile=true to any page to see what the mobile version looks like. I weed to update the mobile browser detection thingamajig to cater for the rash of new phones

I use the Ctrl+RightArrow to read through the forums, but when I get to the end I need to get out the mouse again. Can we have Ctrl+RightArrow continue to the next page if we're at the end of the page of posts, or maybe another key combo to move between pages?
|
|
|
|
|
wow you guys are fast. I noticed you added the Ctrl+PageDown to go to the next page already. 
I'm embarrassed that missed that before posting.

It depends on your browser. With IE7 CTRL/PAGEDOWN works for you; with FF3 it switches to the next browser tab.

When I'm reading the comments at the end of a long article (like this one A WPF custom control for zooming and panning.[^]) when I click on a comment it doesn't automatically scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, it scrolls me to the middle of the page, but closer to the bottom.

Which browser? Chrome? If so, it's a known issue we're working on.

Yes, it's Chrome. I'll wait patiently.

Could CodeProject add a new category for X++ code?
This is the supporting-language for the Microsoft Dynamics AX
platform.
There is hardly anything out there now on the subject,
books, articles, tutroials, you name it, very sparse.
Much of it on MSDN is utterly undocumented.
Could sure use some help.

Write some articles, and they will come.

"Difficult Questions" (or something equally/more descriptive)
The gist is that I currently have a REALLY tough question that requires a LOT of description, some code snippets, and maybe even some illustrations and downloadable files to aid in getting an answer (I've been working on formulating the question for almost four hours already). Essentially, it would be the same as an article but would actually just be a programming question.
What I plan on doing at this time is starting an article that poses the question, but that is not published, and then posting a link to the unpublished article in my "proxy" forum question, inviting interested/knowledgeable parties to participate in the answer process.
Another benefit is that we don't lose our questions in the flotsam that soon fills in at the top of the forum.
What do you guys think (especially the CP admin folks)?
EDIT =============
Well, my workaround won't work because not everybody can see an article that's not been made public.

sure. I like the idea. A "Really Hard Questions" forum. Or a "VIP Tech Room" for technical questions by Gold+ authors/authorities only.
Actually, asking the question as an article is fine by me, as it offers good readability, images, downloads, and a forum.
Two conditions should apply:
1. being restricted to gold+ members (we don't want silly questions turned into silly articles, as has happened before);
2. getting a list of those, a separate forum or list page could be fine.
BTW: don't hold your breath, the CP admin folks have probably left already for Florida, TechEd, the week-end (choose one).
Now where is your problem?
I can only hope it isn't all Silverlight and WPF, as I haven't reached that stage yet.

The problem is dealing with a WCF web service used by a Silverlight app that's deployed as part of an existing asp.net web site on a secure server.

Hm. I might still read the first few sentences then, but don't expect to be able to offer a useful reply... I'm not an early adopter when MS is involved, I tend to give them a head start, and wait for version 3 or SP2.

It's been posted and the kick-off message is in the WCF forum.

So I read your message again, and suddenly remembered the "upload" facility that is available I think to gold+ authors. Can't you simply upload the article and its dependent files to your upload area on CP (see "Uploads" menu, near the top right of most pages), then create a message that links to it?
PS: Sorry for the idea coming late...

Good question. I would have suggested simply posting this as a question in Quick Answers. I looked at your article and it's not exceedingly long. I don't think there's anything wrong with posting a question of that length and detail in Quick Answers. However, since Quick Answers doesn't currently support uploads that might not be the best choice. Though I don't see any uploads attached to your article. Maybe you no longer have a need for it?
Personally I'd like to see something like this ultimately posted as a tip/trick. We have a task to allow members the ability to turn questions into tips/tricks. I think your subject and content is more in line with this system than the article system.
But a lot of this is todo's and ideals. As the site currently stands I think you chose a good route - if you absolutely do need uploads in your article. If not I'd recommend posting this as a question in Quick Answers. And possibly even creating a tip/trick out of it after you've found the solution.
Of course, these are all just my preferences. Feel free to choose any method that suites you best.
