Hello,

As you can see, we have put the new bulletin boards live.

The migration went smoothly, though it look at little longer than I expected it to!

If you notice any problems on the boards, please post below.

Piptrader,

I think there's still some confusion as to the use of the term 'jump'.

With 'jumping to a particular post in a thread', I use the #lastread anchor on the URL which causes the browser to scroll down the page to a particular point in the page and that is what I think of with using 'jumping'.

Is that what you mean too?

If it is, then it's done. It'll now auto-scroll to the previous post that you read.

J.

Except when said previous post is the last post on a page...

Jon - Yes, I think that's what I meant:-)

I'm happy now, except that...

Opening this thread this time, I only got the header post, and your post #321, but not #320. I think this is because a new page of posts has started. Does that make sense, and is it intentional?

edit: Kayak has put it more succinctly!

Piptrader,

Yes, it's becuase a new pages of posts has started.

Other than that it's working as advertised :)

J.

Ok thanks Jon - I think the benefits of having all the posts on a page available (with autoscrolling to the last read one) outweigh the disadvantage of losing the last post read if it's the last post on a page.

Yes that's better

Piptrader,

I was hoping you'd say that :)

Martini,

Good.

J.

The Search and All Posts boxes have a little tail in the bottom right hand corner.

Specs supplied on request ;-)

I will let JT know

Kayak,

Never mind eh?

There's not much I can do about it...

Kayak,

Regarding your post about <, > and other & © values not appearing correctly when you edit stuff, that's been fixed.

J.

All,

As I think all the issues with these boards have been resolved, I'm going to unpin this thread on the main thread page.

Feel free to continue posting any observations regarding these boards here though.

J.

A new word enters the lexicon: "unpin" :)

MM - I'm afraid all the world's dictionaries got there before you:-)

MM,

It would seem that he is right.

Jon - I know I've been nagging you all day, but I'm all man:-)

Not only are you all man, Piptrader, you've proved my 'post-238-theory' quite brilliantly!

Priscilla:-))

If anyone still needs help with posting links, I've updated my illustrated guide to posting links to reflect today's changes.

Piptrader,

Whoops :)

The new chain link tool seems to use a fair bit more HTML than one might think is actually required.

Or is that just my opinion?
