I have been a member of this website for a while and I get really frustrated using it. icon_mad.gif Not because of the web being up and down, pooh happens. I'm having trouble because I'd love to read a lot of the threads but I have to keep hitting the back button to get to the forum again to look at each new subject line to then go to that topic. Am I missing a spot on the page to be able to read a thread and then go to the next one? With the way I do it I'll never become a frequet member icon_cry.gif
I'll appreciate any help I can get thanks.

When your search results are up, if you hit the "Ctrl" button and the "n" button on your keyboard at the same time another page will come up.

You can then choose the topic you're interested in reading, and when through close the page.

I don't know if this is faster, but at least you don't have to page back....

All that did was pop up another window with the same info in it. Anything else I should try?

You can open a topic in another window by putting your mouse on the topic and holding shift while clicking on the link. Then when you're done reading the post, just close that window and the forum window is still up.

At least the control key will help to keep me sane. icon_twisted.gif I wonder why they don't have a next page arrow like they do with the pictures we scroll through. I'm not always on here looking for specific help, sometimes I'd just like to go through topic by topic to see what I can get or give advice on. icon_rolleyes.gif
Thanks for the tip.

Right above your post there is a small grayish/bluish box. It looks like it has a piece of paper on it with a few stripes and on either side is 2 arrows (one pointing left and one pointing right). Just click on those arrows to read the previous post and the next post. The same symbol is at the bottom of the last post on the page.

I hope this helps and is what you are looking for.

THANK YOU!!!!! That is just what I was looking for. I didn't realize there was three places that could react to me putting my arrow on it. I had tried it before in the middle. You're awesome!! Thanks.
