What's this perma-link thingy you speak of?

As far as I remember, I clicked the "Link" link in that post and once it loaded fully, I copied the address in the browser URL bar and pasted it in my first post. If that did not make it a perma-link, then I guess there might be some issue with the site or connection at that time; or it might be my fault. Anyways, the thread has been moved and my request has been answered.

Ah, that's the problem. You need to right-click and copy the url. In the Lounge, if you click on the perma-link url, it reloads the page with the expanded url.

Oh, I didn't knew that, I though it worked the same way it did previously.
|

Yeah it's a bug of sorts although a minor one.
|
|

If you click the permalink, it gets translated before the page loads, into a Lounge.aspx?...
Seems to be a lounge-specific thing.

Would it be helpful to others if we were able to filter our reputation categories (on the rep page) so that we could see everything listed for only author, editor, etc... and sort by date/time.
I think this would make it easier to find items we have contributed to for future reference.

Great idea.

I never understood that.
I wouldn't hire a carpenter. I reckon they'd do a terrible job of the plumbing. I'd hire a project manager and have them organise the contractors to undertake their various specialities.

I will change it right away.

It's not a vanity issue.
It would be integrated into the site for reference purposes and not for look at me purposes.

My post(link shown below) deleted(not by me) without any warning or messages...plz mention the reason to delete while doing this type of action by forum moderators.
Use of an Interface in C#/Java[^]

This looks like it was deleted by a user of sufficient reputation rather than a moderator. It seems a fairly reasonable question, so I'm not sure why somebody chose to delete it.
|
|
|
|

Like Pete said, someone with enough rights to delete it has done that. I don't think it should have been deleted!
Right now it seems too many people can edit or delete just about anything on this website. Too many cooks...

I actually put a response in this question, so I don't know why someone else deleted it. I think this is another case where the person taking such action should either be forced to add a comment as to why it is being deleted, or automatically have their name added as a visual clue for OP and others.

That would be the better choice. An option to undo the delete might be handy as well.

I've undeleted it.
However, the question is very unclear and is not a question that really has a definite answer. Also, please don't post an answer to yourself complaining that no one's answered. That's going to get your question reported and removed.

I want to post a single line of code...
<table><tbody><tr>
But in the Q&A Section it keeps putting the </table></tbody></tr> tags in.
see here[^]
If I go in and delete said offending items, they reappear on posting.

I escaped the < and > characters and that fixed it; take a look at the source.

Thanks pal.
That just didn't occur to me.
However, the original moan stands, why should it auto complete like that?

Because it's an 'intelligent' editor, and when you add what look like ordinary HTML tags, the editor assumes you are writing a piece of HTML and will close them in order to save you time and effort. In your case you were actually writing non-standard HTML so in order to switch off the auto-complete feature you must escape the tag control characters as per this example.
If you write a large piece of HTML/XML etc by hand then this feature is a real time saver.

The primary purpose is to keep the remainder of the web page in check; when HTML tags are left "open", what follows would get unintended formatting.
