Would it be possible to have that small menu line with "User CP", "Mark Forums Read", "New Posts" and all that other stuff appear at the bottom of the forum as well as on the top?  I think I remember that from earlier (might have been the previous version of the forum), but than again it might just be something I'm imagining.

Yes, I am lazy, and I ask this question only because when I'm reading through all the new stuff here, it would be nice if I didn't have to scroll all the way back up again (when you have looong threads, all that scrolling is kind of hard on the scroll-finger :narnar:) to hit the "New Post" link or one of the others :showoff:

Gandalf is the one to give us an answer - I'll draw his attention to this post. In the meantime, rather than having to scroll all the way back up just press the HOME key :)

Duh :doh:

But still, it would be nice to have that extra menu bar at the bottom as well.  Awaiting Gandy's answer with excitement :)

you've already got the breadcrumbs at the bottom, what more do you want!

Why not simply click 'Top' which does the same as pressing home.

And to answer your question, yes it is possible but there is plenty going on down there anyway.

If you really want it done, then fine but I want a few more people to say 'cool' before I do.

Any idea why I get this (http://www.finnglish.co.uk/Stuff/php.jpg) window every so often? Not only on LFS forum but this one too. Odd.:g:

What options do you select on the dialog to get it to open or does it never open?

I don't select any option. I simply close it an start again and it doesn't reappear.

There's some terrific stuff on there. I do take issue with the format though. Having the latest blog at the top is a pain! It should start with day one and day two should be added on the bottom. This is common with a lot of these type sites.

What I think Neff meant to say was: if you happen to (by accident) push down Shift or Ctrl at the same time as you click a link, Firefox might think it should download the target of that link :)


Btw Ron, what's up with the recent frequently change of avatar?  It makes me a bit confused :eyebrow:

but if you're a regular reader, you don't want to scroll down through a months load of posts...I guess

No, that's not a possibility.
