Re: Fluid layout or fixed width layout, whats the difference ?

8-Dec-10 20:59

I can't tell in any detail, it has to do with layout behavior under extreme conditions. I expect there to be a difference only on really wide windows, so you'll need either a wide monitor or a virtual desktop.

You're right, though it is not really extreme, most people have rather large monitors nowadays.

Text doesn't read well when it gets very wide; web pages get designed for some width range, which typically is much smaller than the width of those "rather large" monitors. If I had such a beast, I wouldn't make my browser window that wide...

That's for certain, especially with languages you don't read very well. I have one 17" monitor rotated to portrait (old pic here[^]), which I use for documents.

I think the max width should be 800px of fixed width layout. I have 1280 width and it doesn't get in center. So basically its for extra large screens, thats rare.

Homepage Doesn't Reflect Changed Lounge Post Titles

I posted what was probably an inappropriate title for a post in the Lounge and Pete notified me that it shows up on the homepage. I changed the title of my post, but it is still showing up on the homepage with the old title. Bug? Cache hasn't updated?

Nevermind, I see the new title now. Probably just a cache issue (e.g., maybe there's a periodic job that checks Lounge posts then updates the homepage).

IMO probably everything on the home page is delayed; I know from experience posting/updating an article takes over 10 minutes to make it show on the home page.

They probably do full table scans and are actually running at 100% processor usage doing all these homepage updates. Laugh | :laugh:

Using Chrome any edits to a quick answer comment are not applied when clicking the OK button. I tried this with Chrome and the same comment with IE9. Only the latter worked as expected.

I've notice several times when using Chrome and posting links that although it forms the anchor tag, with clickey, both hrefs are missing a few of the last characters form the URL.

That's so wrong.

Have you done a Ctrl+F5? I have a feeling it could be an old cached version of the script. I've tested this end and it's working fine for me, but I did have to update the script a week or so ago.

My doubt on this article. [modified]

11-Dec-10 4:10

I've encountered it on two separate machines, in two separate geographic locations, on two distinct networks. However, I can't seem to replicate it now, perhaps the caching issue. If it pops up again I'll let you know.

THIS[^]

I surfed this article It's just Published recently.

At a bottom of the discussion thread I found some what to be illogical, That The article is voted by several persons to which author have replied, But I suspect on which post Author haven't replied, That all the users have joined CP since last months.

And I bet this all are account created by Author, That's why he didn't take care to reply all of these.

This may be fine but I am just posting 'cause I found this suspecting.

Good catch. I back your theory here. It certainly looks like those initial 5s were from puppet accounts the author or a friend created. It's an abuse of the voting system in my opinion.

I don't think, this is an valid point for any suspection. There are many articles in Codeproject, where You will find author never replied to any of the discussion in his article, or They only replied to the asked question not in "My Vote 5" or "Good work" kind of post.

If Author can create and vote from different account then why he can't reply from his own account to those message ?

May be he is busy with his article update or he will do it tomorrow Smile | :)

And, Direct Comment from Voting option does not send any mail to author so, he may not noticed that.

I am not sure about the how article voting happend for that article, but based on your suspection causes I am totally disagree. Hope CP Admin can check it up what is there an backend Smile | :)

Thanks

I said He can but didn't take care at all. Why he gave reply only accounts which are not created since last month.

It's just his way to boost and attract people to vote.

If you'll look closely you will find that.

Though the article is now deleted. I would like to say for one more evidence.

The article was published and within 20 mins he got 8-10 5'vs with the account created since last month, That's one more illogical thing.
