New feature to test: if you click on the "new messages" icon in the list of threads it will mark that thread as read without actually having to read the thread.

Oh that's cool! (can you tell it doesn't take much to amuse me tonight?) Worked flawlessly. And I guess you can ignore my email now that I see why the boards were probably broken earlier. ____________ Kathryn :o) The BOINC FAQ Service The Unofficial BOINC Wiki The Trac System

I also like this function. While testing it, I noticed that, if you mark as read more than one post, that if you use the back button in Mozilla, you have to 'backup' the number of posts marked +1, to get back to the message boards. Of course, you can always just click on the 'Message Board' link to get back to the boards. I'm assuming that this is due to the reloading of the page after marking the page as read. roark part of your loyal (HEE HEE) creew ____________ May you always have clear skies, Following seas And the wind at your back.
