Suggestion - hover over thread title for message?

Post by NeatandPicky »

I don;t know how easy/feasible this would be, but in other forums (eg. moneysavingexpert) from the index you can hover over the title of any post, and a pop-up appears with the (beginning) text of the message. I find this very useful in deciding whether I want to read a new post, and also when looking for things again.

Just a thought - if simple to implement.

Hi,

That is possible with vbulletin forum software but this one is on phpBB (which is free and so has few bells and whistles).

Thanks for explaining.

Hope you don't think I'm complaining - I'm immensely grateful to you for setting up this forum which I find a fantastic source of useful info, ideas and support.
