If you switch it on for ALL users, people logging on your Bulletin Board with Netscape WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EXPAND THE POSTS.

They will be stuck with entire threads contracted, and with absolutely no way to expand any post at all.

yup, you're right FWC. Thanks :)

When the message is minimized, number of the message and the first line from the message is not shown. What to do make?

FWC the expand all/contract all will work, because it reloads the page and changes the display setting to show/none. What WON'T work is the javascript function to change between show/none without loading the page.

Theoretically, I could write a more complex hack so that non-IE users could also use the +/-, whereby the page reloads on every click and changes the display setting for that specific post. But it will be a much bigger hack, and I don't think it's very convenient - having to reload the page every time you want to expand or contract a post.

I would also add that there is a way in javascript to write an expand/contract function for Netscape as well, using layers. It will, however, add a lot more code to the page (and therefore more bandwidth) and since the behaviour of layers is very different to dhtml, it will also mean heavily editing the templates, if not creating two template sets.

Since I abhore Netscape with all my heart, I decided quite consciously not to put that effort. 90% of my users are IE users. All I can do for the remaining 10% is make sure they don't get hurt or disabled. That's all

After you do this, place $post[shortmsg] in the posbit template. :)

inetd, place it in the first <div></div> -- exact place is wherever you want it to be

Where exactly it is necessary to insert $post [shortmsg]?
