About jumping to the newest message: I also have problems with this (as a user) here witht the perl version..So I guess this is something not related to perl/php, but a somewhat confusing "feature"...I would love it if it was a link on top, jump to new messages, or something like that...
Most of the times I want to browse the messages that I have already read (to refresh my memory about the context of new posts). I always wanted to "complain" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> about this feature, but I guess I kind of got used to it...I understand however your users...
