Page Selection.

This site is fantastic for me as i like to browse back through all the old step by steps and other things, but it takes me forever to first set it to show all the threads from the beginning and then have to click Next continuously for sometimes 20-30 pages, even on a cable connection this takes time.

is there an option which allows you to select which page of threads you wish to view? or would it be possible to install one?

Cheers
Rowan

I just use the back page icon on my browserto go the original list of topics I did the search on and pick the subject that is of interest to read....my browser will also list the page titles (back to the opening of the browser) if you open the back button icon window to ease the pain of hitting the button multiple times..example: I will open back to "bonsaitalk search results"...I have Internet Explorer btw... And I know that AOL has the same window.....

I get what you mean but its not the solution i was looking for thanks though.

what i mean is, when you go into the General Forum (example), and you ask it to show all threads from the Beginning of the site, then it brings up like 50 odd pages of threads. Say i want to ge to page 30 of the threads, that means have to click Next Page 30 times which takes a long time!! i only ask this because i like to browse through the entire website reading everything going, and a page selecting button (e.g. [Please Take Me To Page ...] ...=enter page number) would be a lot quicker, because if i finished on page 30 one day and wanted to go to page 31 then i could just go straight there instead of pressing Next 31 times.

Cheers
