It's our remnant ad provider. I'll see if we can get these blocked. They suck.

I just noticed that <pre lang='vb'> doesn't work correctly (for VB), though <pre lang="vb"> does.
Edit: The problem may have "gone away on its own" or it may be a more complex issue than I had thought. I had noticed the issue in the previewer when editing this QA post:
'There is already an open datareader associated with this connection which must be closed first.'[^]
What I am hypothesizing is that the system had already recognized the text as VB (and activated the VB text highlighting) when it was posted and then got confused when it saw an apostrophe in the Pre tag. The result was that only the end of the Pre tag (>) showed up in the text. Now I wish I had taken a screen shot.

Dim Foo As String
Dim bar As Int32
Seems to work here ...
|

|
|

It didn't for me when I edited a question.
|
|
|
|
|
I just tried in QA and it seems to work there also.

|

I just re-checked what I had edited and I saw no problem either, so I don't know.

It's a Heisenbug

Mayhap. I'll try to reproduce it later. I doubt anyone but me prefers apostrophes in tags anyway. Least concern. Carry on.

Do you actually want the items surrounding these tags to be in subscript? Because I'm not sure the <pre> tags will allow that

I am on the move now.
Please forgive my topo.
What i want to say is that the sub tags are actualy working in a separate html document.
CodeProject are encoding all text to html on publishing, even the pre tags, and i think this is the real bug.

The article editor has always been extremely picky about encoding HTML inside <pre> tags. A lot of times, like this one, you can't use HTML tags however you wish, the article editor will simply encode them. Other times, you can use specific tags in a limited capacity. For example, you can use a <strong> tag to bold text provided you don't leave the same line.
In this case, you can't subscript that text inside those code blocks. Is there an alternative you would consider?
Thanks,

I will think about

would it be possible to show the possible badges of an author in the article header? At least the one for the sponsors.
It would make things easier for the S&A group 
I know the editorial note about the sponsor article is there too, but that requires to read when a simple glance could be enough and move to the next item if not particular interest in that article.

Hi
The news RSS feed has been returning an error for the last couple of days:

All fixed.

I don't see a forum for assembly. Can you create such a forum?
Thanks.
|
|
|
|
|
Very few people use assembly language these days and most questions get posted in Quick Answers[^].
|
|
|
|

To add to what Richard has said, since assembly is so little used these days opening a dedicated forum for it would probably be counter productive - a seldom visited forum is worse than no forum at all as it gives hope you might get an answer there quickly. Posting questions in QA opens them to everybody which means a higher chance of an answer.

Then we should remove some of the fori...
There are a few that receive a message per year or every several months.

That's probably a good idea.

What!? Wait! ...
I am still hopeful that an occasional message will show up in 'Application Lifecycle'!

I think CP is more a Windows coding site than a low level site. I have in the past asked a few assembly related questions and got some answers (not always the best) I think the main issue if you are trying to code a windows program in assembly you are going to be on some strong drugs (or at least when you are finished you will be).

I tried to start a PLC Forum (Siemens LAD is similar to assembly) and there was very little resonance back then when I asked, so it never went live.
