'lo folks.

Just curious... Yeh know that "last 10 posts" yolkie on the home page? Well is there any way the link on that can be made to go to the last page of a post, if its a multi-page post... or at least include links to the various pages, as ye do on the main topic listing for the board.

Know what I mean?

and before you ask, no, i dont read whatever you wrote, im just drunk and spamming....

Cloud · 17-03-2001 7:09pm

Try this:

http://www.boards.ie/cgi-bin/bulletin/active.cgi

Lenny · 17-03-2001 8:20pm

also another thing, would you also try this too
you know when you reply to a topic that has say .. 3 pages
and it says "Thank you OJ for replying to the topic, we're now sending you back to the topic"
well is there a chance that it can send you to the current page you replyied on too insteed of going back to page one ?

thanks anyway

Cloud's reply:

Could be done but involves hacking the UBB code, so I'm inclined not to - sorry.

why didn't you just reply yourself

and that link you just posted ... is that showing the most recent reply to each Forum ?

Cloud · 17-03-2001 8:36pm

That's for me to know and you to find out :P

Working on getting the top 10 link to go to the last page of a thread now.

Cloud · 17-03-2001 9:45pm

Sorted. And I remembered why I can't set it up so that it shows the number of posts or the originator (as OJ was asking), unfortunately that information is stored in a different file and it would be too slow to open.

Another thing that would be cool is giving the option of links opening up in a new window or not.

Check out http://student.dcu.ie/~dubskye2/ for an example of how it can be done.
Look in the top right hand corner.

I don't like links automatically opening up new windows on me.

(:

Also, I think that redirect after you post is annoying aswell.

Cheers,
