Article Submission Wizard fools me for the 10th time - data loss?!

Ah, that was it! the list of autosaved articles! Thanks a lot! I have IE9. The files are tiny (7x about 4KB GIF files, and one 5KB ZIP file). The effect is intermittent - may be that some files could not be uploaded or that the Add File button has no effect any more after a while (e.g. add a file and try to add another file after a while). Before that happened, I switched forth and back between HTML and raw view, did some Preview to see the line numbers, etc.). BTW: Independently of the abov: in the HTML view, the line numbering is never visible - and can I start the line numbering at some other number, say 47 instead of 1? Thanks for your help! Andi

You mean line numbering using the "linecount=true" attribute in the PRE block? That's only added as part of syntax colourisation so won't be visible in design mode. Setting a starting value isn't something we currently support but is something I can certainly add to our TODO.

Hello Chris, Yes, that's what I mean: linecount="on" (as described in Using PRE tags on Code Project[^]). E.g.
<pre lang="cs" linecount="45">...</pre>would have the meaning: line count on and start at 45. This is especially helpful if you have a source code citations in the document. Starting a 1 is kind of "useless" for this documenting style. Cheers Andi -

Cheers AndiI agree! until you start asking for a linenumber increment of 10. :) PS: do you want linecount="0" to mean off? or start at zero (and "-1" would then be off)? Of course, "on" could be interpreted as "1", and "off" as off.

Looks perfect - my suggestion was not so well thought through. Cheers Andi

See Chris' suggestion below. I think this is what I need. My suggestion was more on the "hack" side ;-) .

I saw that. I will upgrade my Using PRE tags on CodeProject tip if and when things get changed. :)

This has been done. I'm doing a code deploy tonight (assuming final testing).

Hey, that's quick! Any test support needed? Cheers Andi

Sorry for the delay but our tewting showed some errors the day I wanted to deploy, and we've only just had a chance to redeploy. The feature is now in place so go for it.

Hello Chris, works like a charm! See my latest tip update, at the far end (at the moment, the tip is in pending state though). Thanks again, it's very useful! Cheers Andi

Not really. It may be OK in tips&tricks, it has at least one bug in forum messages: countincrement seems to work, countstart doesn't. example using
<pre linecount="True" countstart="30">Graphics g=e.Graphics; g.FillRectangle((e.State&DrawItemState.Selected)==0?Brushes.White:Brushes.Yellow, e.Bounds); Brush brush=Brushes.Black;and
<pre linecount="True" countincrement="10" countstart="30">:Graphics g=e.Graphics; g.FillRectangle((e.State&DrawItemState.Selected)==0?Brushes.White:Brushes.Yellow, e.Bounds); Brush brush=Brushes.Black;:(

I could achieve my goal, i.e. it worked for me. After tweeking a bit with
countstartI think I found that it only works if the<pre...tag is on the same line as the first code line. Otherwise, the count starts at 1. I did not usecountincrement. Andi -

I can confirm that the following works:
<pre lang="html" countlines="true" countstart="123" countincrement="17">a
b
c</pre>Count starts at 123 and increments by 17. Where as the following does not work:
<pre lang="html" countlines="true" countstart="123" countincrement="17">
a
b
c</pre>Count starts at 17 and increments by 17. This does neither work:
<pre lang="html" countlines="true" countstart="123">
a
b
c</pre>Count starts at 1 and increments by 1. Conclusion: If the first "code line" of the
<pre...is on the same line as the tag,countstartworks correctly, otherwise it's not working correctly. Cheers Andi -

AndiYou may be correct, but then it wouldn't make much sense that countstart has a positional requirements, whereas linecount and countincrement don't. And yes, I tend to put the PRE tags on separate lines, as it preserves vertical alignment of the code. :)
