....and I have no idea if it's even possible. What about a drop-down box at the "Today's Posts" button, so that you can jump to whichever page you want? I know when I exhaust the first page and am ready to move onto the next 2 or 3 or 4 pages, it's a bit inconvenient to have to go back to page 1 and re-click to get to page 2, then 3 etc, etc....
Does my suggestion even make sense???? I know what I mean, but I don't know if I'm conveying it correctly.
It's not even THAT big of a deal, just an idea.
Just a thought....

Bullet's trial was a farce. Can I get an AMEN?????
We won't be punished for our sins, but BY them.

Sounds like a great idea. I do not see why that would not work.

Exactly the same problem I was trying to approach with my ignore thread query - knock out the ones you're not interested in and the second page will come to you

I've tried to imagine what you do, BR, but I can't get it. You click Today's Posts, you get a list, you go into a message and then Back, then into another message and then Back, and finally you want another page? You have the eg: "Showing results 1 to 25 of 56: Page 1 of 3 1 2 3 >" hyperlinks at the top and bottom of the list. If you're on Page 2 the links are still there. Why do you need to go back to Page 1?
I did wonder whether you were navigating between threads with "Next/Previous Post" but that only takes you to posts in the same area, not by time order across all the areas. I don't know another way of switching from a post to the next post in time order other than to use the Back button to the Today's Posts list. So what are you doing that I haven't worked out?

I just want to be able to go to whichever page of the new posts that I want to.
When I'm replying to or reading a thread, and then want to go check out the next thread, if I'm already on page 2 of the new posts, I still have to go to "Today's Posts" and then to the page I was on. With a drop down box of each page number, it's a more direct route.

Well, all the buttons are there for you to have exactly the same effect as what you're looking for. Have a think how it can get fewer strokes than this...
Click "Today's posts", click a message.
For "next message" when you've read it, click Back and click a message. If you were at the end of a list, click the number hyperlink for the next page before clicking the next message.
When you post, click the pull-down arrow next to "Back" and click the two-screens-back line to get straight to the list again. That's the same moves as making Today's Posts a pull-down menu and selecting a page number.
That all exists now. I can't see any possible procedure with fewer clicks unless you change the context meaning of hyperlinks for next and previous post - if you made that change then there's just one click forwards and backwards every time.

I agree, Spot:)
That's how I've always done it.
But unfortunately, my vast computer knowledge ends there:-3
