If you will notice, code tags behave differently in Java and C++ forums. Why can't we have a consistent formatting across forums? Personally I like the C++ one...
It's even smaller than an 80x25 terminal now! Just a mere postage stamp stuck in the bottom-left corner of the page, with acres of white space all around it.
I don't like the new format of the threads -- a brief list of thread links at the top of each thread (I don't know what they are called). I find them annoying and almost useless, especially in Geeks Lounge where some threads have hundreds of posts. And it looks …
Upon replying to a thread in Geek's Lounge I keep getting this message: [COLOR=Black][URL="http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g31/reranger/char1.jpg"][I]"The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 1 characters."[/I][/URL] Even when I add one character it will still not submit, giving me this same message again. I have never …
Hey everyone, I'm not trying to complain at all... I love this forum... I come here at least 5 times a day. I was just wondering if the new feature (not sure how new it is) with the key words, popping up ads when the cursor is hovered over them …
They say that the picture is worth 1000 words.... Here are 2000 words.
When I use firefox version 1.5.09 I can not copy the highlighted text within code tags to the clipboard. But in IE6/7 I have no problem. Is this a DaniWeb problem or Firefox? I only experience the problem on my home computer, where I use Firefox most of the time, …
Hello Miss Dani. Has the layout for "IRC Chat Network" page being changed wherein the names of the people in the channel are no longer displayed ? I would really like to know why the change in the layout has been brought about, since I can no longer view the …
Hey guys I'm a noob but I'm starting to love this community.Only thing is you kinda get burnt out helping people in posts with no real interaction. What do you all think of having two chat applets? One ,lets call it "I'm free", for seeking help with a problem from …
Hey guys brand new to the forum but I've noticed the e-mail notifications don't always tell me when a reply has been posted to a thread I'm helping someone with. Is there a way to show who has replied to any posts I have made?I only ask because at the …
I don't know why .. does it have to do with the total # of posts? If i exceed a certain # of posts then only i can do that .. Is that the case? :cry:
I think that there is a bug when watching some posts with firefox. The post orders are different for internet explorer. You can see it is the same address but there is a difference between the third post. See the pictures and you will understand. PS: Dowload the pictures to …
Hi, Since ~S.0.S.~ beat me to asking about referrals I figured I'd ask about my next-most pressing issue regarding DaniWeb: I just noticed the sidebar section entitled "Syndication", and I'm wondering what that refers to? Thanks :)
Today I tried a whole new approach to daniweb (by TYPING a [URL="http://www.daniwec.com"]"www.daniwec.com[/URL]" in my address bar (IE6 up-to-date) and a security alert jumped at me: (quote) Information you exchange with this site cannot be viewed or changed by others. However, there is a problem with the site's security certificate. …
Am using the Opera Browser as my default browser. However, whenever i try to post something new (either a blog or a thread), then i see that i cannot interact with the post buttons like: Insert Link, Align left, Align Right. Can Someone look into this please. Hope my cries …
Ok, Umn..... How do I escape BBCode Tags? For example, I have a post where the user uses a database (with code), and the problem is that one of the fields is "code". So, what I mean is, it gets referenced like this: `Select (Code),[Price],[Res] from [tt]" & " order …
Is anybody having problems viewing this thread? [url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread52437.html[/url] As a final thought, I think it might be because the pictures there are too wide. Is this possible? Thanks.
One thing I find terribly annoying is how the box in which code is contained always has a scroll bar with one line missing from view.[code]#include <cstdlib> #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int random_integer = rand(); cout << random_integer << endl; }[/code]Is there any way to get …
is it just me, or is this thread empty: [url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread47461.html[/url] I have recently answered a post in that thread, and now the screen shows blank..... any ideas?
In the HJT logs i am not seeing the backslashes. It shows as this. [quote] C:WINDOWSsystem32svchost.exe [/quote] Where as it should be this [quote] C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe [/quote] I kinda miss my backslashes, it makes it harder to read ;).
I can't edit words that are selected by double clicking them. Cant change, delete, or anything. I have to highlight it by dragging the cursor, which is [B]very very [/B]inconvienient. Edit: If it matters I am using Firefox. But I didnt have this problem before the current VBBulletin (I think …
Last couple of days I have noticed a strange behavior that I don't think is caused on my end. (Win XPpro IE6 up-to-date) Yesterday, when I posted a reply and immediately afterward tried to edit it, the changes were saved but not displayed. When I tried to edit it again, …
Hey all This morning, I had about 5 mails from a user called solodrow who had responded in total filthy language to the threads I was subscribed to. But when I went to those threads online, I couldn't find his/her posts. I ran a search for the said member, but …
Clicking the [I]Posts Since Last Visit[/I] gives me a table with the last(?) column chopped (see attached picture). I'm using FireFox 1.5.0.3 on Win2k.
When I search all the forums (to get kind of an over-view of what's happening on the site) when a thread has more than 1 page of posts, I USED to be able to click onto the other page from that listing directly...... that doesn't seem to be there any …
Hello, This is mainly a message to Dani (although interested to know whether anyone else has seen this..) The the PM message frame extends too far to the right (at least on my screen @ res 1280x1024). It cuts off the right-hand-side of the PM message window, so long lines …
Whenever I fire up mozilla and go to Daniweb (Which is quite often). After I go to the spyware forum. iTunes always starts itself. I have no idea why this is, and it is mildy bothersome. Do you think that it is a coincidence that it only happens on DaniWeb? …
The "Insert Link" button normally presents two dialogs -- one to enter some text and the other for the url. It doesn't do that any more -- only asks for the url. Will you please fix this:?:
Hello... I found about the site through my friend. It has been a very useful site with posts ranging from the beginners to experts..A nice thing is the community is it tries to change the attitude of the programmers :) Well I am registered in another community too..but I think …
Can only the thread starter mark he thread as solved..I suppose yes along with administrator..So any method for making everyone mark solved after writing thanks i.e. after problem is solved.... It wastes time reading a long thread and then see that its already is solved..
I have had problems with the Dani Web page opening today, I keep getting the 404 Error File Not Found message, and have to go back to the start page and try again, so far it has worked on the second attempt. Hopefully a moderator will see this.
Hi, when loading certain pages, it seems that the ads can't load. Therefore leaving a bunch of page load errors on my screen ;). Not sure why this would be, but though I would point it out. Look at SS to see what I mean. (Same thing happens in IE …
Hi I think an option to delete your own thread, would be great. Like in edit mode there be an option to delete it. That way if you accedently double post you can remove one.
Seems I have to login 5 or 6 times to post anything. Can you get this down to one or two? GaryR
I have seen that even for code with a small number of lines, vertical scroll bars are added and we have to scroll to see all of it. Also this restriction does not seem to apply for other tags, e.g. [B][[/B][B]quote][/quote[/B][B]][/B] tags. I think that it would make the reading …
Hi, I have a [I]small [/I]problem. Microsoft inform me that my handle for MSN Messenger is ampers. Your website (My Profile) tells me it isn't and won't accept it. Who should I believe :lol: Ampers
Is the IRC Chat network up? I'm having trouble connecting to irc.daniweb.com.
If I was a member of techtalkforums would I still be a member of daniweb? Is there anyway someone can find all usernames by March 10th birthday and send the usernames I'll find mine. (I've had so many over the years I can't find it on this forum)
Hi, I was wondering if my name could be changed to "Ghost." I know you don't usually allow name changes, but when I joined this forum it was because I needed C++ help. That's how I picked my name. Now, I'm posting in many forums, so my name seems a …
This is only a big deal if you use a notebook with a restricted screen size to access the forums. But in that case, the advertisements are in the way. With a small screen the ad overlays the forum menu on the left and you can't access it. When you …
Don't know if this happens to anyone else or not, but sometimes the ads near the top of the page will double overrunning parts of the page. This has happened in firefox 1. and firefox 1.0.1. See the attachment if you don't understand. Dance
Just thought you might like to know Dani, but there is an annoying ad (Netscape Internet services) which blocks the genuine text and content on your site. It is not a popup ad, but it behaves like one by simply going on top of the genuine content in the middle …
There is a add running to my right about my computer having spyware/adware and to click if i want to scan my computer ,the site in Question is on the list or Rouge Spyware tools and sites ,check the Rouge Tools' link in my signature .I don't think this site …
Hello. :) I was just trying to get the signature that I use for other sites to work here and I noticed that the restriction is 500 characters total (including BBCode). I just wanted to make the suggestion that it be based on actual displayed characters. At SitePoint, I believe …
I'm not liking the new way of how the threads are timed ,I use to like when they were marked 20min ago 1 hr ago ect ect ect
Dani, is there a way to check the last "x" number of posts, or post for the last "x" amount of days/time/time frame? Thanks
