Anonymous Unregistered	quote: Originally posted by Conrad: Pink Jazz, the majority of my users are on IE6, though a significan numer is still using IE5.x (my stats don't differentiate between any of the IE5.x versions). How does it run here on OT? Is there a browser detector in place? Also, are there any "side-effects" to using DHTML apart from the requirement to have a recent browser version? Does it use up more system resources (user or server) or anything like that? --------- Go Cougs! Yes, there is a browser detector here. BTW, what about the Opera users? There are quite a lot of Opera users, which doesn't support this. The Opera users here are viewing the old interface. Without the browser detect, they could have problems using OT. IMO it may be possible that Infopop will implement a browser detector in Threads, but that will likely be in the future.

Anonymous Unregistered	Browsers from my site- MSIE: 95.18 % (1380158) Netscape: 4.017 % (58256) Opera: 0.009 % (135) Konqueror: 0.005 % (83) Lynx: 0.000 % (3) Search Engines: 0.189 % (2750) Unknown: 0.590 % (8555) I think IE & NS are pretty dominant & you cant program for everything. <-------------------------<<< Scouts Out!

Anonymous Unregistered	Isn't the chance quite high that the next release of Opera will run DHTML without any problems? Isn't DHTML a proper standard? Either way, I think the % of Opera users on my site is something like 0.08%, so at least in my case that would not be a concern at all. It would be great to see this added soon. Great way to save bandwidth btw. --------- Go Cougs!

Anonymous Unregistered	DHTML, as a standard, has been around for a long time. But it wasn't supported very well until recently. I scripted a DHTML drop down menu on my site (I used it to replace the normal Threads menu) and it renders correctly in IE, NS (even some of the 4.7x versions), Mozzila, Safari, Konquerer, etc. So I don't really think that using DHTML would be a big issue for Threads. Browser detection is pretty simple. I use to use it to determine which java applet my server would send out to a client (anyone who believes that Java is platform independent has never used it...). Personally I think that the posting pop up menu here is incredible! If there is any chance that this could be scripted into Threads then it should be done! Da LAN Tech

Anonymous Unregistered	...and since this is the Threads 6.3 suggestion list I'll post this here: Please, please, get rid of the frames in the admin panel! If you change your menu to anything other than the default then you cannot break out of the frame set once you go into the admin section. The entire page tries to load into the top frame. I hate frames so much that I won't bookmark a site that uses them -so why am I forced to use them to admin my own boad?... Da LAN Tech

Anonymous Unregistered	I can't use Safari here with the DHTML. Every thing I click does absolutely nothing. I use OmniWeb now, which gives me the old interface. I figured Safari didn't play nice with the DHTML, of course it is beta. Josh Measurection.com Admin \| ThreadsDev.com Moderator Register to see my How To/Site Help Library Forum at ThreadsDev.com.

If there is any chance that this could be scripted into Threads then it should be done! Ditto that! If it's ok with the OT people then I hope Rick will add this pop-up post message screen to Threads. Great design, great feature, great bandwidth-saver. --------- Go Cougs!

I can browse... but I can't login, thereby can't post. Maybe I need to surf myself over to the Open Topic support forums.

Anonymous Unregistered	quote: Originally posted by Teelie: Blocking or ignoring private messages. I know UBB.Classic 6 has this feature but Threads doesn't and the board I moderate on is having a few people with private messages being sent to them they don't want. Currently the only option is to totally disable recieving private messages but this means they don't get messages from people they _want_. I'd like to add to this, the ability to forward a PM to another user, and also the ability to report it (which would include the date & time the PM was sent as well as details of who sent it & the content) to a moderator/admin.
