Hi all,
I was wondering if there is, or could be a better way of getting to the first new reply in a topic, withoutcontinually moving page up and down, or starting at the beginning? I mean, if there are 50 messages in a topic, and I've read the first 40, couldthere be a simpler way of jumping straight to post 41 without having to press page up, then page down, and starting at the bottom and arrowing up real fast? Thanks, and have a nice day all,

Hi Wonderwoman, What I do is go to the bottom of the page by hitting control with the end key. Then just shift tab until you get to a name you didn't think you read already, which will be a new post. If you're not sure, just shift tab a few times of ther names, and then down arrow and check the actual post. If you've read it already, then just hit tab until you get to new posts. Hope this helps.

ok, thanks Caitlin, I'll try that in a few hours or so and see how it works, thanks,

No prob. Let me know how it works. If it doesn't work for you, I'll try and think of another alternative.

It works great, I can find the last messages much faster. I try to remember how many posts a topic had when i left it, so it will be easier to tell if there have been any new replies, and your suggestion works wonderfully, thanks,

Caitlin, you read my mind, you just won answering the question exactly the same way I planned it to be
Also, if you want to read the topis from the top you can use insert-enter to jump over the links and stuff at the top of the page, typing that twice, I think, gets you to the first line of the first message and then you use the tab key to get through the messages.
cheers
