h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hi Jim - again Congrats.

I am having problems getting to the listings of 'all other listed conversations' at the foot of some pages - It seemss to work on home pages but not on the 'A' & 'P' pages - it leads to the latest forum to be written to, on that page. Perhaps you can check this out.

The 'click here to see all conversations' is a little superfluous, I suppose, since we always show all conversations. So it will show you the most recently updated conversation. But you can see all the older ones (and the date they were last updated) in the left hand column.

The reason for keeping the link there is in case we start displaying forums differently - we could show just the list of conversations on one page, and you'd have to click to another page to see the conversation you wanted. This would mean not using frames (which don't work on some browsers) but it would make looking at conversations slightly more cumbersome.

So unless I'm misunderstanding you, everything should be working as expected. Let me know if I'm wrong.

Yes I see that by clicking on the left column you now get a full page display - something I asked about many moons ago - great to see it in action.

It is just that sometimes - especially on fun run page I want to look at an older posting that has slipped off the end of the page (cos only 5 are displayed) - as you say - it can be found by clicking on any forum then clicking on the left box that is attributed to that page. I find this method slow in may cases cos the forums become so long that waiting for it to load before I can browse the left column makes me lose even more hair from my wide parting.

I much prefer the 'see all conversations' link as was is faster - but if I must bow down to progress - then I must.
