Default This Is Bound To Be Useful Feedback!

Alright. This is a feature (maybe a hack, who knows) that is available at a VB3 forum I'm a part of. Well, here's the idea of it. When the cursor is held over the link that opens the thread, a tool-tip type pop up, popups right there showing what the first post in the thread contains. So if one decides that they don't like what is in the thread, or feels they don't have something to reply to with in that thread, they don't open it. This would be especially useful for us dialup users. Ask me more about it if anyone's confused on the idea. I think it would be a very beneficial addition to this forum!

You know what, when I'm done with my current software project (which I've had practically no time for), I'll work on a mod for that. It'll slow down the loading times for the pages that contain that. It shouldn't be too hard, though. Simple MySQL reference and an even simpler JavaScript script...

actually it woulden't be javascript. It's just the 'title' tag in a href. Of course, you might have to use wordwrap, and there's a vulnrability in wordwrap on all PHP before 4.3.0. I think you can still technically do it by submitting a modified post
