Shift + Space works too.

Dave.

I have been posting very intelligent and extremely sophisticated messages for several days now, so I believe it is time to promote me. I want to be a moderator because I want to retaliate for censoring my first message. How much longer do I have to wait for my well deserved promotion? A day or two? A week? Thank you.

An uppercase space?!?

That's me yelling with spaces.

You're too much of a comedian to become a mod.

I didn't want to make a thread devoted to saying how much I like the new name change from silly/syrupy to melting pot, so I thought I'd say it here. Good choice!
Hmm I might as well come up with a question to stay on topic so... Is there a way to check a box (ie. contest entry - check either male or female) without using your mouse? Like how you use tab to get to the next box?

You can use <tab> to swap between fields in a form, and your good ole friend <spacebar> can tick off those radio buttons!

actually, the space will toggle checkboxes, but not radio buttons. to change the selected item among a group of radio buttons, you have to use the arrow keys.

in which forums is there a 33 minute delay until your posting appears?

Ghoti, the delay should only occur in The Melting Pot.

thanks.

I don't know if anyone's noticed this before, but whenever I write up a post, hit the 'Preview first...' button, then - after looking it over - click the 'GO -->' button, it tells me that I have to wait 33 seconds before I can post again. When I check the thread it looks as though my message was posted successfully.

So, I'm not sure if it actually submitted my post when I previewed it, or if there's a bug in the script that runs when I click the 'GO -->' button.

the preview button works fine for me in ie 6.0...

Hmmm... thanks, I'll take a look.

Okay -


how come there are tonnes of messages from way back when that are just sitting there? can't they be deleted?

how come there are names of users who have not posted one single post yet their names are still here?

seems like a whole lot of clutter if you ask me..
