Working with the Editor to publish an article is HELL
-
Trust me, the new one is a lot better and don't messses up formattings.
I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.
That's good to know. I tried publishing a tip a while ago. I wrote the HTML offline and pasted it into the editor's HTML view. I noticed that if I switch to the WYSIWYG view, the code segments are all messed up. So I made sure to stick to the HTML view only, and used the preview functionality to ensure that it displayed correctly. Unfortunately, once the tip went through moderation, the formatting was messed up again.
What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

Fortunately, the walls here are 60cm thick and made of granite, so very little gets through them - and certainly no sound! :laugh:

Hey, you never mentioned that you live in a castle (or does everybody in Wales do ?)

I think words like 'destiny' are a way of trying to find order where none exists. - Christian Graus Entropy isn't what it used to.

:laugh: It's not a castle, it's a cottage! But it's a couple hundred years old, and it's built of local materials: "riverstone", which is basically granite that has been dragged down from the mountains by the river and bashed so many times it's probably harder than diamond... Because it's hard, you don't cut or split it unless you really, really have to - so the walls have to be thick to support themselves. Worse, they use a lime mortar which you can't cover with a modern plaster because it needs to breathe. It means they are cool in summer, and once heated - which takes a lot - warm in winter. And they will probably still be here in another couple of hundred years, which modern building methods don't encourage... The downsides are the line mortar, complete absence of right angles or straight lines, and that just putting up a shelf needs industrial strength drilling equipment and a lot of luck! :laugh: When the neighbours had an extension, the builder wore out two water-cooled diamond cutting discs before giving up on cutting a door hole and demolished a chunk of wall instead...

You either love 'em or you hate 'em. If you love 'em, you get used to the drawbacks - Cat 5 cabling was a nightmare - and just enjoy the solid, comfortable "feel" of the place. If you enjoy living in a square box that is identical to all your neighbours then you'd hate it! :laugh:

I know I'm archaic, but I write all my articles in FrontPage and just paste the HTML into the online editor. At most, I use it to add "code" tags. Marc

Any old house will have walls of that thickness. Either they'll be cavity walls, in which case they will be about 3' thick (two parts of the wall of about 1' and a 1' rubble fill cavity down the middle), or they'll be built to that thickness to provide some insulation. My current (recently purchased but the word 'new' would be confusing in this context) house has only about 1' or 18" for some of its walls and as a result it doesn't have great insulation.

You can download the skeleton article and build it offline using that, then submit as a Zip file. Takes a bit longer to get published but it tends to work.
Hi Richard, I downloaded the CodeProjectArticleEditor.exe from Huseyin Atasoy , it looks promising :) Thanks for the advise :thumbsup:
With friendly greetings,:) Eric Goedhart

In my experience the new editor is already better. Anyway you can ask for help: http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1641/Article-Writing.aspx[^]
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)
Hi Kornfeld Eliyahu Peter, I have use the new editor to publish my new article and you were 100% right that it is better. :)
