Chris, Sean,
I already asked about this in the Lounge but it seems no one else sees this behavior. Essentially, any website I visit that has CafePress ad banners *always* show me CP ads. Not that I mind seeing CP ads, but I am just a little puzzled as to how they are able to figure out that I am a CP member. Are they using some browser exploit to read the CP cookie? Note, I *always* get CP ads, "always" is the key here. (The most recent one I got was on cricinfo).

Can you please send me a screenshot?
Have you purchased anything from our store?
They can't read your CodeProject cookies.

Yes, the next time I get this, I will. I have to get a CafePress ad to get the CP ad. While all my CafePress ads are CP ads, CafePress ads themselves are not so frequent. Thus the wait.

No, but I did browse it recently. Maybe they save the IP addresses when you do that, and then show you ads for products you are interested in. That kinda makes sense. Or perhaps they store their own cookies and then use that when displaying ads.

I would hope not too. Anyway it's unlikely that a reputed company would use an exploit to read cookies to do targeted ads. It's probably the above explanation that's getting them to show me only CP ads. I'll test this out by viewing other products and then waiting to see if those would show up on all my web pages too.
Thanks Chris.

I don't think any were mentioned by name, but it wasn't just the smut provider being sued[^] who was using a javascript flaw to snoop on visitors.

Well I hope CafePress will be classier than those companies.

Some probably got rolled by the companies they bought advertising from.

Hi,
I have written article recently and at the time of preview & inside WYSIWYG Editor It seems to be everything fine ,But when I update and publish the article at that everything is being messed up. In other word text other then code is missing.
It's showing only code snippets inside <pre> tags and skipping the text written in <p> tags.
and some text are being wrapped up in <code> text though not attached.
Kindly take a look.
Thanks.

Hey guys,
Not sure if this a bug or a glitch or I'm just doing something wrong, but my technical blog over at blog spot hasn't synced in quite some time. I've got CodeProject in the tags and have added the rel link.

Any clues?

Hi,
I just checked your blog. It is not syncing to CodeProject because, your post length is too small to include as a Technical Blog feed. The length of post which has the recommended size, will automatically fetch by CP.
|

|
|
Ah. That makes sense. I figured it was something simple. Didn't realize there was a size rule.
Thanks Kunal

There's a lack of spacing between elements enclosed in <code> tags and the text following them. While edits to change this are viewable on preview this isn't the case once the article is updated. I hope this isn't just me re-exercising an oversight.
|

For horizontal spacing, HTML does space compaction, i.e. it replaces multiple spaces by a single one, even when HTML tags are in between those spaces. You could take advantage of not doing the same.
If you're concerned about vertical spacing between a code snippet and the next text paragraph, I must urge you to use PRE tags, not CODE tags, for the code snippets.

Thanks for the feedback Luc. I have to wonder though, why are edits visible when previewing an article but not in effect after updating. I added spaces manually, plus some minor edits, clicked on preview button and everything looked as I expected. Ater submitting changes and viewing the article nothing had changed. Does HTML space compacting not apply in the preview window?

I don't know as I tend to not use the CodeProject article preview; I compose and check my articles in another environment, and just check the result once more when it has been published.

This seems to be a recent issue as i've noticed it on other articles. My previous edits on my articles did not experience this issue. I write my articles in Dreamweaver then copy paste the markup, minus html and body tags, to the submission wizard. I then add the necessary cp links for source files and images. This has worked well till recently when this issue cropped up in my recent article.
