Nice option, I think that the leading thread is hard to find in the mass; it should have a blue background.

Davide,
Can you post a screen shot of what you saw? The rest of us don't have that option

Whoah! I guess my tactic of hiding bits of my sig using that blue color isn't going to work on supporters...

Well, you always know you can do a  , right? That's a non-breaking space.

Well, if you're using blue hyphen-minuses (that's their real name, believe it or not) to space out your text, non-breaking spaces work just as well.

Oh! I see what you mean. But the reason i'm using '-' is to clearly separate the sig on the email notifications. When displayed as HTML, it's fairly obvious it's a sig, so the hyphens are unnecessary. I suppose i could just make the whole thing blue though, so if this new expanded view becomes popular i might just do that.

This is just an experiment at the moment. I might make a hybrid version for the 'thread view' option to see if that's more useable.

Too bad sub editors don't get that. I think you guys need to file an anti-discriminatory suit.

I would like to see the thread view load the first post of each thread when it originally loads. That way a click on the thread will show the contents of the first post (the same way a click in DHTML view does), and then we could decide if we want to spend the time to download the whole thread. This is especially true for those of us with slow connections, who when we connect find up to a 1000 unread posts in the lounge, and not all the titles are very desciptive of what the thread is about. I just find it a pain to spend the time downloading the entire thread only to find the topic uninteresting, or skipping over what turned out to an interesting thread because the caption seemed uninteresting.
I hope that made sense

...so when I get to the New Thread screen I start typing. When the page finishes downloading it sets the cursor back to the subject box so I have to delete what I've accidentally typed in the subject box and get back to where I was typing. It's very minor, buts it's kind of an annoyance.

Hello Raffi
I don't think Chris can do anything about that. It's intended behaviour for any browser, I'd say. A solution would to be type your post into notepad and then copy/paste. That's what most of us do, anyway

I'd have thought you'd use the old command line debug program and type your bytes in directly. Now I'm disillusioned.

All my major text inputs are done in notepad as well.
There is nothing worse than spending a few minutes on a rant or reply and then CP won't process the post.
I've been burnt too often to go through that all the time.

Nope, here is the offending piece of script.
<script language="JavaScript" for="window" event="onload">
<!--
document.MessageForm.Subject.focus();
</script>
I've never really noticed it on CP, but it always pisses me off when sites force focus onto a control when a page is done loading, because I might just have been busy reading something in another window. 
Same with any application really, what gives another app the right to sieze focus.
