The time and date for the threads are a bit confusing.
How can someone figure out what time of day the posting was done, if they don't know
what timezone the web-server is in??
How about calculating all the time/date to local time/date for the client accessing the pages.
Or adding a line wich states what timezone the server is using, and maybe the current
time on the server?

I'm very new to The Code Project and I must say this is an excellent site! I was going to submit a link to a site that I did not find on here but realized that there is no place to submit just a link. I work with an online group creating a DirectX Game wrapper (no it's not what you think, keep reading) and wanted to submit a link so others can enjoy it as much as I have for the last 5 years. It's called CDX. It's a class wrapper for DX7/3 to make 2D games. There is talk of a 3D library but most of us just want to make "classic" 2D style arcade games Is there a way (other than what I'm doing right now) to submit a link to our site? All source code is provided free of course and I have learned more about DX than any other source from working on CDX. Oh, almost forgot the link, it's http://www.cdxlib.com/ Do enjoy

You are welcome....
I promise to visit that site. I'm working in a project with DirectX.
Thanks.
And welcome to the jungle Again!!!!

Hi Chris,
I found some time to test my proposal to fix the problem, but could only do that on my IE 5.01 - it seems it works though!

This is just a sample taken somewhere: I added HEIGHT="100%" in the nested TABLE, an it happily filled with white the entire row height.

Thanks Paolo!
I tested it on IE6 but it didn't fix it

I'm really disappointed , but I would say that I expected it.
I tried another solution: extend the nested TABLE to all the row, moving the outer columns inside it. But I found it difficult to set the right column's width for all the columns.
It's not that easy... I have to remember this if they ask me to web-design something

Sounds like you are pretty much at the point I got to.
There is an extremely simple, neat and efficient way of fixing it. Just can't think of it at the moment.

Hi Chris,
It seems like you've fixed it... or, at least, I see John's posts are ok now (see http://www.codeproject.com/lounge.asp?forumid=1159&select=71904#xx71904xx)
If that works on IE6 too, how did you do that?
I looked at the source HTML, but didn't notice any change.
Interestingly enough, if I load the page in FrontPage 2000 it doesn't show correctly in the embedded preview window.
Please explain this little mystery
Cheers,
Paolo

Andrew Peace was playing around and nailed it for IE (only). Just rearranged the table formatting and removed an embedded table. IE is the only browser that treats cell widths correctly (or at least, intuitively) Opera and Netscape make a mess of it, so they use the old HTML formatting.

Hi,
VC++ forum is very hot and question post last night becomes 3 or 4 pages away tonight.
How about dividing that forum into 2 or 3, categorizing MFC, Win32... I don't have good idea for that. Do you guys have some nice one?
I love Code Project, do you?

Ya certainly nice one.
I am also thinking about that...
Please do something....

Although this is a problem, I think you'll find the vast bulk of the questions are MFC questions, so it won't help. I know I am not the only one who every morning goes through from the top answering questions until they recognise one, and by the time I get up most of the questions have been asked and answered. I really only see it as a problem for anonymous posters, because they don't get an email reply. My opinion of anonymous posters is fairly well known, I would have thought.
I admit it would be nicer to split them, but the thing is, it wouldn't really help much. A COM section might, assuming we do not have one, but a Win32 or WTL one would be pretty dead, I think.

Is it possible to have a link to the Visual C++ FAQ at the top of the Visual C++ Forum?

Heh Yeah, the show started airing as a summer replacement about 2-3 months ago, but it caught on and it will be airing twice a week during the regular season.

Maybe, but the 50ish woman doing the show in Australia is far from hot.

Chris, I heard that programmers always count from zero instead of one. Why not including 0 as a score for rating articles on this site? This is probably more important than the gun control discussion.
|
|

|

I think you already know that:
- multiple authors don't get notified of message boards' new threads
- there's not a way to see which articles one have in common with another
I suppose this has to do with the database structure, but I just wonder if it would be too hard to fix that. It would be really nice

Multiple authors should get notified - I;ll take a peek and see what the problem is. As to fixing up the entire system properly, that is way up their on the priority list. I've been doing some behind-the-doors negotiating using copious amounts of as bribes and I'm hoping this will solve a whole bunch of issues.
