How about marking the threads which the user has participated in?
I don't look at threads with lots of responses unless I've given a comment and often can't remember which ones they are.

have a look at www.tek-tips.com - they put a big tick beside the threads.

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.

That's an interesting idea! I'll see about working on that next week.

Ok, this is very, very beta (or alpha or untested or whatever). Try http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/active2.asp and let me know if you find any problems. Any topic you started or posted in should be bolded. Also, let me know if bolding is a problem or if need to find another way to hightlight the topics.

Worked like a charm graz!

Bolding is good, how about making it italic as well.

Excellent (as long as it doesn't slow things down).

My next suggestion is that whenever anyone posts a small amount of money should be transfered to my bank account.
Let me know when you've done it and I'll check :).

It's OK, the cursor to pull out the <b> tags is pretty quick.

Sorry Graz, can't keep this suggestion outta my head:

Is it difficult to change css and html references using color navyblue to #9FAFDF to benefit Netscape 7.0 users ?

This chart shows NS 7 renders no color for navyblue. Viewed with IE, navyblue renders fine. Some tables on this site then are illegible using NS 7.

I think it actually made things faster. The original query was written using the old-style join syntax (all joins in the where clause) with some "interesting" joins. Rewriting the query and adding the extra join to the reply table is faster than the original query. I'll get active.asp replaced with this version in the next few days.

I'm a sucker for the tabbed interface (which isn't unique to NS 7). The Gecko engine does a great job rendering CSS-P . So much so, I use NS 7 to validate page layout and format.

It may be time to switch, but not to IE, I've got to have tabs.

Yea, Like the tabs. We have to adhere to >= Netscape 4.0 for all business apps.
That is getting old too.

When you say that you like the tabbed interface, are you talking about how many(most) browsers, other than IE have the new pages open in MDI-Child type interface. Unlike IE that opens a whole new instance for each window? I have been hearing more and more about that, and it seems like it would be way better for performance to do it that way. Wonder when/if MS will ever get around to incorporating it?

I hear you on the Netscape thing. Luckily, the place I currently work is pretty much just IE, so I don't have to worry much at all about the issues. The last place though, we had some clients who mandated compatibility with AOL 5 or 6. Talk about painful, there were times where just plain HTML wouldn't render correctly, forget about Cookies or anything more sofisticated than that.

I haven't really paid too much attention to NS development in the past year or so, but I am wondering if they have improved the rendering speed at all?

Opera or Firebird are the best browsers out there (IMHO Opera..its rendering speed is amazing)

The perceived response time is better.
