thank you for trying to help, but it's the same problem!
still shown [??? ??] the same in the screenshot above.

i think it's because of UTF-8! and i have to make the Mod support UTF-8!
if this is the problem how can i do it, because am using Mac, and i donno how to do that .. but i know how to do it in Windows by Notepad++ software!

so could you please if that possible to make this Mod. support UTF-8 charset? to give this a try!
because Ajax still not fully supported arabic!

Dr.osama, this mod working with you perfectly?
am using firefox 3.5 mac

Nicely done. Except for one thing, and that is that, in my forums at least (see www.theparacast.com/forum as an example), you can't just click on the number to see the new posts and threads, only the label New Posts . This is a mite counterintuitive, particularly for less-skilled users. If this isn't the way it was supposed to work, let me know. Otherwise, I'd recommend it as a fix.

Peace,
Gene

When i check new post mod write that i have new post's

but when i click 'new post' i dont't have any new post's

when i click 'mark as read' then everything is ok. This situation is always a place where I will read the posts after you click on new posts. It seems that the modification does not refresh the data.

I have the same situation. I have zero unread posts now, but the mod text is still showing 54 unread in 17 threads.
