Therefore, if you even think you might have something of value to someone else, then you probably do. The basic definition of a submission is simply a piece of code or technique the helps another programmer out. An example would be a recent CodeGuru article where a simple technique was shown to capture the user right-clicking on the header control of a listview. A good example of this would be the various classes that extend the standard MFC classes such as CListCtrl, CTreeCtrl, etc. Tutorials - Our personal favorite, these are articles that usually contain between 500 and 2,000 words and teach a given concept, programming technique or technology.
Tutorials can be beginner level or very advanced depending on the topic and the intended audience.
An example of a tutorial article would be Beginner-level Tutorial on XML . Tutorials are generally the most popular items on any developer Web site and in a recent CodeGuru poll, the number one improvement most readers wanted was more of them. Please do not use any HTML formatting not described in this document as it will be removed and will only delay your article being posted. While not being a strict rule, submissions should contain at least one image. For those of you that maintain that you don't know HTML, we have provided an extremely simple template for your use.
