New Site Feature - User Request

**K-Man S** · #1 (**permalink**) 03-04-2006, 12:09 PM

Someone, and apologies I've lost the email or PM where it was requested, asked whether or not they could see a 'Preview' of a post topic when viewing the Active Topics list. They stated that on other websites they were able to do this.

Well not to be outdone, and because I had a few minutes of extra time, I have satisfied that request with a coding change. Now if you pull up the active topics list and hover your mouse cursor over the title of the message you will get a tool tip pop-up with the first 250 characters of that message. I know this works in IE, can't vouch for other browsers at this point.

Anyway, whomever it was, I hope you like it and I hope you didn't think I forgot about the request you made a few weeks ago!

Works in Safari, and it seems like a good feature to add to me. Great Job K-man S, and thanks again for all your hard work in helping this forum to evolve and be useful in new ways.

That great K-Man. I can also vouch that it works in Safari, and echo K-man-sculpture's comments of thanks for all your efforts on the site. It is a fantastic resource, with a great crowd of people. Tonse

Hi Ken

It was me when we were talking about the Mod job. And yes it does work in Firefox as well.

Is it transferable to all forums?

Good start, though.

I've only got it on the Active Topics page now, but can look at applying it to the forum listings as well, shouldn't be too hard to do... again, just need more time...
