Can that be done in unenhanced BBcode? How?DRT wrote:Is it that you have specified the links to be "unread" so that the colour of the text in the links doesn't change when you next visit the page?
Yes.djewesbury wrote:Is it my go yet?
Each of the links have "&view=unread#unread" at the end of the url, so it is not enhanced BBcode that is doing it.jdaw1 wrote:Can that be done in unenhanced BBcode?

I have not seen that done before so assumed it was, in your words, "new".

Daniel questioned layout, me content.

If you don’t know the answer, can you properly ask? (Methinks not.)DRT wrote:What is Wolfgang's middle name?

When I was a small boy (sub-10) I went on a seaside holiday with my parents. We went to see a performance by a then well known stand-up comedian. At that show the comedian gave me a Mars bar because he had used me in one of his "front row" gags.DRT wrote:Can anyone think of a good question?
