Why? When in DHTML mode, all the message on a page are loaded at once anyway.

Exactly. That's what makes it quite plausable. The only problem is that the function to handle the message viewing is designed only for one message, it would probably take quite a while to modify it to expand all messages on the page.

This bit of code will expand all the threads on the current page(nasty hack)(can't see a simple way to collapse all the threads without changeing the way the doucment is produced - but hey i dont know much html so i could be wrong)

<script>
function Expand()
{
nodes = document.getElementsByTagName("TR");

for(i=0;i<nodes.length;i++)
{
var thisLevel = nodes(i);
if(thisLevel.style.display == "none")
{
thisLevel.style.display = "block";
}
}
}
</script>
<a HREF='JavaScript:Expand();'>Expand</a>

Since JavaScript event handlers get stripped from posts, you need to save the page locally & then insert it. But you've been kind enough to provide a DLL now i see, so there's no need to be so industrious! Smile | :)

Foolish?!? YOU WROTE A F***ING DLL! That may be masochistic, but foolish it is not. If you just need some way to justify it, add a few more buttons to do HTML insertion, spell checking, etc. Smile | :)

The link was on the lounge, but Rama deleted it Frown | :(

Paul posted a reply with a bit of javascript that did the same.
Try searching for CP Expander maybe... not sure, but that sounds right.

That would be nice, although the way it works now is that the ads refresh every time you switch articles. So having everything expanded would mean fewer impressions and less $$$ for the site.

You want it and you get it.

Download CPExpander.dll from here. Click

Register the dll. This will add a button to IE Toolbar. When you browse to CodeProject Click on the button and it will expand all messages for you.
