Purgatorial Incarceration

I wasn't entirely sure of where to post this, but if you read this, perhaps you could pass it on to others who might be interested.

It has been brought up more than once about the problem of being sent back to "page one" of the forums, when responding to a buried post. It is frustrating to have to go back to find your place, especially if you weren't careful to note where you were.
My solution: I don;t know if this will work with all browsers, but I know it works for Netscape and Internet Explorer. Once I have posted my reply, and it sends me back to the page, I press and hold down the "back" button. It then gives me a list of the last ten or so "pages" I've been to. I then simply click on the one that I was on before I clicked reply, therefore bringing me back to where I was, without having to scan through and find my lost place!

Hope this helps, if not...sorry!

Wanna hear something funny? The upcoming "Balladeer Button" is going to work by accessing that very list you're talking about Christopher...
