It works for me in Firefox, as it opens a new window and puts the site there, but the screen display stayed on the original tab/post and it didn't display the new link - I had to click on it below the tool bars.

We have that little arrow button that allows us to jump back to the top of a page when at the bottom. Is it possible to add one at the top of the page to make it quicker to skip to the bottom of the page?

I don't think so. All of these funtions are built into the style of the board. I'll look and see if someone has a mod for it.

It's not that big a deal. I was just thinking it would be nice and also took the opportunity to post as I was PWing my way to 500 posts last night.

I have a forum question. I want to use the emoticon with the little beating heart sometimes, but it always shows up as this dude when I click on him. Is there any way to fix that? :x

Thanks.

I've got to delete the original emoticons. I think some conflict with each other.

Can a pop-up style prompter be added to alert users toward a PM?

It would be nice but I don't think it's an available feature. You do get an email sent notifying you of it however.

Is there a "strike through" html command that will work here? I tried [strike] but that didn't work [/strike]

When I click a link I still can't get a new window/tab to pop up (unless I right click first). Is there something that I'm doing wrong (an incorrect setting in Firefox or something)? Then again, it works on other sites - just not here.

If you hold the shift key while you click on the link, it will open in a new window. (Thank you, Bjornoff, for this tip!)

I usually do that but was hoping I could get it to open a new window without having to use both hands (not being lazy, I'm usually doing something else as I surf around here so it can be inconvenient to use both hands).

Yeah, there's gotta be a more convenient way to drink and websurf!

Will we be able to do a chat room (sort of like snrub) during Duke football season? Or do we have to go yonder, and hope that 'breen has escaped from EJ's basement? ;)
