New Page Numbers?!

Not sure about this new page numbering malarky. There is nothing to remind you which page you're on! Have just got to the bottom of a page, having dipped in and out of several threads, and couldn't remember what page I was on. Had to go back to the beginning and find where I was. Somehow defeats the object, or am I just being a bit geriatric! Debbie |

I thought this as well initially. Would like a next/previous button as well. Or the page number you have visited to change colour. Failing that I just look at the number at the end of the address bar - I think it is 0 for page 1. |

Hi Nina, Thanks for that! Just tried it out, you're right - page 1=0, 2=1, etc. Not very obvious tho' is it? Something on screen would be much more helpful. Debbie |

The other problem with this is go away for a couple of hours and the thread will not still be on page one, so writing down page numbers is a waste of time. TB moves so quickly especially when people just nudge to get their thread back to the top. George |

George That is no different to when it just had a previous 20 button. If you want to come back to a message later then you need to write the message number down. |

######################################## Dear Members, We are pleased that the majority of you like the improvements to the Message Boards. We have noted your comments and will try to make the page numbers a different colour so that you can easily identfy which page you are on - this may take a few days so please bear with us. ######################################## |

Nina, Try using your "back" button on your internet browser and that should take you back to the list you were on rather than having to go back t the first page. GC are working hard lately eh? Well done GC and thanks for listening to us!! |

I think that the new page numbering system is better than before and will be very good when modified. I hope that all GC members will also use the new Records Board for look-ups and keep this board for tips, as was intended. Thanks GC. Amanda |
