    I tried to release an article using IE9 and it would not upload any files, in Firefox it would upload the files and then add a big red cross next the file name so like whats wrong with small .jpg or .png files here. trying to add blocks of code and getting it to format resulted in locking the page up. Someone has tried to be too smart with the java-script and it's not working and i won't be spending days learning how to cut-copy-paste text and embeding a few images so best this site goes back to a submission page without a zillion bugs and then i might try again Yes mod, ban me by all mens

      Yeah, don't use that. Use the template and email your article. It's much easier and you can work offline.

          Why would the moderator ban you? You expressed your complaint in a professional, courteous manner. No one should have any problem with that. ;P

          The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

            Nothing is wrong. You can use the red cross to delete a file, it doesn't mean that there's something wrong with your files.

              Had that problem uploading my first article too, takes a while to get used to. The Offline Article Editor For CodeProject[^] could help. Write your articles there, copy and paste the html in the editor here, looks the exact same way and then you could add source files. The best way to go though is using the template and emailing it to an editor. He'll fix everything for you and upload it under your handle. No one is going to ban you for expressing concerns on here. You might also want to see the Article Help Forum.[^]

                Nobody is likely to ban you for saying there is a problem with the site; if they did that most of the regulars (myself included) would have been banned on a weekly basis... I have to agree that the article submission page is pretty bad, and I've said it before. I tend took end up doing it manually in HTML mode and use three preview. I've not had a problem with uploads though, but I tend to use Chrome over IE or FireFox anyway. Welcome aboard, BTW! :laugh:

                  I guess he wasnt here for the redesigning of the page, there was a ton of complaints then. However they usually draw the line at swearing or calling people idiots or more obscene words. The article submittion is pretty bad, however there are cumbersome workarounds.

                          Strange how it works for hundreds of other article writers. Maybe it's ...
