Code needs to be indented by at least four spaces to be code. When people just copy and paste code without formatting it correctly, the bits which are indented already show up as code.

After receiving some complaints that the editor font size was too small, I went ahead and significantly increased it to mimic live posts. What do you think? Is it better now or too big?

1. Known bug. Will be fixed. 2. There are no plans for this to currently be implemented. It would require a database schema redesign and there is no easy way to currently tell *what* is the last post for each individual member. 3. This hasn't existed for about two years …

Did you paste it into a post where it is expecting [BBCODE], or did you paste it into one of the HTML templates?

Yup ... it's attempting to syntax highlight with C/C++ style highlighting. To force VB-style highlighting, use fenced blocks like this: ~~~ vb Code goes here (not indented) ~~~

Line 30 of report.php is trying to send out email. Apache is a web server which can serve PHP pages. MySQL is a database server which manages the database. You need a mail server in order to send out email.

When viewing an article, you can click the "Watch this Article" button towards the bottom of the page. There's also an option in the profile editor to automatically watch articles that you post in.

I've been working on our editor a bit tonight, and there are some changes to its functionality. Now, when you click the buttons such as Bold, Italic, etc., the editor automatically gets focus and highlights the dummy text. Therefore, you can immediately start typing to replace it. Also, I went …

This is a big problem nowadays with the recession, because everyone is getting laid off and taking lesser jobs. So all of the entry-level jobs that typically require very little experience are now being filled by people with lots of experience willing to work for less money. Try investigating internships. …

Is it just me, or is everyone listing all the same things, but just in a different order?? On-page optimization are things you have direct control of because they are ON your actual page. Off-page submission are things you don't have direct control of because they are on other sites. …

Sooo ... I learned during my schema migration that our webpages use UTF-8 encoding but our MySQL database (all InnoDB tables) uses latin1. After finally running some utf8_decode() php magic, I was finally able to successfully get all posts to display correctly again. However, now that I realize there's an …

Is anyone else seeing this?! There's a little musical note icon next to my Google Analytics charts, and when I click on it, Analytics "plays" my graph with synthesized piano tunes! I think this is the most useless, ridiculous feature ever to come out of Google.

So your question is whether => means the same thing as =. In the world of multi-dimensional arrays, no, they aren't quite the same. However, according to the code you're showing us, '=>' is being literally printed as a result of the echo statement. Literally *anything* could be printed there. …
