Currently one has to follow each of the comment replies to...

Can you add GoUpOneLevel hyperlinks to all web-pages within dev-archive (at the beginning and end of each page). Sometimes, the back button gets disabled and its a pain to get back up to one level.

A lot of this site sets a light grey background, but fails to set a text color. When the text color is left undefined, it could turn out to be anything, including white. The browser will draw text in whatever color the operating system is using for text.So a lot of the dev-archive pages wind up bei...

I bet you guys could gather enough info for a very informative salary survey. It would be great to see one broken down by region, skills/tools, and experience. Ideally, it would be run on the VC++, VB, and Java boards to be able to compare those too.
I think that a welcome addition to this great site would be the possibility to rate the articles posted (in a manner similar to the one in which the forum rating works).A suggestion: the initial rating should be assigned by the maintainer of the section and should be permanent (but reviewed periodic...
