Total Posts: 2486 | Well guys, I dunno if anyone noticed but I've added a link to "recent topics" on all pages. I think that'll make everyone's forum browsing easier and will also help reduce wasted bandwidth and unnecessary server load. You won't have to click "home" to just go back to the recent topics page as it's been linked to from all pages where it seemed to be needed. Please post here if you found that update useful. Thanks.

Total Posts: 2486 | Yes, its on the list. The thing is that Teemz only keeps time of last reply and not the author. Because of the way things work, getting last author on the fly would be a big performance hit and changing the db structure would require some time. If I have some free time, I'll see if there's any trick can be done to avoid many changes. I'll post back with any news as they come.

Well, if you really want it, it would just be a button with a simple javascript in it... window.scroll(0); or somthing. I'm not sure. *tries*
scroll to top?
Guess that doesn't work.

We could just do a <a name="top" /> ... <a href="#top"> I guess...

Total Posts: 2486 | That's why most ppl don't user Opera... Although IE's forgiveness does make people not care about their code and all that. Oh well. Like A said, named anchors would be a better cross-browser choice one way or another.

Total Posts: 2007 | What I meant wa sthat you can have a link such as <a href="#top">Top</a> and not have an anchor <a name="top"></a> and most browsers will still recognize what you want to do. |

Total Posts: 939 | I'm still almost certain that's not to be expected by a strictly compliant browser.
If clicking this takes you to the top of the page, your browser probably is breaking the rules.
Yeah, doesn't work in Opera -- another bad solution.

Total Posts: 1892 | Have you actually tried Opera? If you haven't lately, I really recommend that you do. On a related note, they launched version 8.0 today, and I've been using the beta of that for the past few months, and it's very nice. Opera Homepage |

Total Posts: 2007 | I think the problem is in the macromedia javascript (that's what my firefox javascript console whine about, anyways). It says use the document.getElementById() function to reference the menu objects instead of the little trick function dreamweaver implemented. |
