It uses the exact functions as the "similar threads" feature, therefore has the same accuracy.

02 Feb 2006: fixed to prevent Array bit from showing atop the popup display results page
29 Jan 2006: some JavaScript tweaks to get this to work for Turkish and other languages
28 Jan 2006: fixed duplicate JavaScript function name causing Manage Attachments issue
28 Jan 2006: initial release of port

Very nice idea and thanks for porting this hack :)

Edit : Calorie is it possible to change the mouse effect ? some users may not have chance to figure out if the image is a link or not.

In the Find Topic newthread_form_complete plugin find:

Code:

document.findicon.style.cursor = \"default\";

And replace with the following to always have pointer:

Code:

document.findicon.style.cursor = \"pointer\";

Hi

This has taken the option to choose a thread prefix away
If its mandatory to choose a prefix then you cant post the new thread!!

Turn off your product and the prefixes work fine again!

I turned off the thread prefixes....
I submitted a thread identical to another posted and nothing happened
it just posted the new post :(

Any ideas please?

This mod is for viewing similar threads prior to submitting a new thread. Enter a title and then click the icon to see what it does. For the thread prefixes, see the attached.

I always liked this feature! :)

Ah i see now :) I think im gonna make the icon stand out a little better
unless you have any ideas?

Other than that thanks for the updte on the plugin
all is working well now :)

Thanks alot

saying sommat like "Please check for exsisting topic"
Or perhaps sommat a little short but to that effect?

TIA
