In the interests of improving questions and question askers, I propose giving moderators the ability to place users in Purgatory.
Purgatory is a place where users who have sinned, but not too badly, are placed so that they may make penance and redeem themselves. Sinners are users who submit que...
@Robik If you have a chatroom that has something to do with a real-world event, you can have a notice pop up about it. But as far as I know people only use it for joke events. Like "happy hour" here in this room, because it's named "The Tavern."
Man, I sure wish I could see who downvotes... I just downvoted some newbs answer, after trying to help him improve it for ages, and then he says, "the next time I see you answer something I'm going to downvote it..." and sure enough. Some little sod has started going around downvoting all my answers. teenagersgrumblegrumble
This Q spawned from this chat session: Where Cole alleges that users are abusing the privilege of creating rooms
I think that there is no need to have 8 separate Android rooms, unless we can show that consistently, over time, having 1 room is insufficient for the needs of the community. This is ...
I know this is strange question.
I have installed new parts for my computer, now I have 512 Mb RAM and 64 MB Video card RAM
but still i have Intel Pentium III with 450 MhZ
I have Delphi 7, can I move to newer version of Delphi? If so, what problems I will be having?
I'm working on localizing my iPhone app, and my translators are doing an excellent job. The problem is that the accent marks and "non-standard" characters keep on getting ruined by Xcode. I'm not quite sure what the issue is, but it's just not working correctly. I've tried changing the encoding, ...
@PopularDemand Your non-use of the comment oneboxing functionality of the chat userscript disappoints me. Though it wouldn't have worked here anyway it seems, since the explicit reply must not work with the blockquote. blames balpha
I want to create a function to handle form submission.
Ideally it would work like this:
checks form for any anchor tags with a class="error".
If it exists then do nothing.
Else then perform the form action and method(method=post action="file.php").
slideUp containing div
Delay 2 seconds

I'm setting up a system (PHP-based) that will let users instantly provision an SVN environment for use. It's an internal project so the users will mostly be internal users.
I haven't the foggiest idea where to even start. Any help?
On this SO question, What does typedef do in C++, the number of revisions shown on the page is double the actual number of revisions.
It was asked (as community wiki) 14 minutes ago at the time of this post. Then it was edited by cherouvim changing the text and title a minute later. At this poin...
Ok, here is one for you. I want to have a table with 4 columns total. I only want to view 3 of these columns even when resizing my browser leaving the 4th column always hidden from view. However, I still need to keep my scrollbar so I can scroll to the 4th column if necessary. Essentially 3 co...
it sure is useful for displaying data in a tabular view but not for creating layouts but on the other hand what do I know about that, I'm just a random mobile applications developer :p
Yeah I've been doing web sites for ~14 years now... I don't use tables much at all anymore, but I have no hate against them. They always did what I asked. :)
How can I re-implement the default Notes application for iPad? There are many apps in iTunes. Is it possible to implement something like http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/note-taker-hd/id366572045?mt=8?
It would be a great help if anyone could let me know the classes/frameworks that I could use for...
I've got a question about data flow that is summarized best by the image below:
I've got the data path from the UI (WaveMaker) down to the hardware working perfectly. The question I have is whether I'm missing something in the connection from the Java Service to Wavemaker.
I'm trying to pr...
All you need to keep people from seeing the directory contents is an index.php or .html file in that folder. Any requests for yoursite.com/images will load index.php, which you'll set to a dummy page.
index.html could be something like:
<html><title>Forbidden!</title><body...
On my page I have a lot of various elements which respond to click events.
There are times when I need to block all clicks based on some global flag.
Is there a way I can make this check in a centralized location?
Right now in each event I check for the flag, for example:
var canClick = false; ...
Here is my flagging summary on SU.
Your flagging history

On the flagging summary, it is not always easy to distinguish one flag from another. We don't know where it starts or finish.
I would suggest to add the dotted line (the one that already separates questions in the main list) just right after the actions that has been taken on the flag question/a...

You would likely get a better response by asking in the Android boards.
