The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Formatting e-mail form results to be more user friendly

Asked by jjbackes in Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)

Tags: , ,

Our website has a customer information and feedback form that sends the results to an e-mail address. The problem is the results appear in the e-mail in a very unreadable format. It appears that the line breaks are being removed by Outlook sometimes depending on the version of outlook. I have tried setting the form results as "enctype="text/plain"" and as "enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"" neither of which corrected the problem. Is there a way that I can control the appearance in the e-mail results? Perhaps having it post in HTML tables that I can set up? Here is a test result of what I am getting. The capitalized info are the categories and lower case are the customers input. I would like to be able to tell the difference between categories much more easily. Any help would be appreciated
