Searching Archives

[VictorLouis]

I am new to the net, w/TFL being my first bullet.board, so forgive me if this sounds simple. Topics come up, after search, in blocks of forty 1-40, 41-80, etc. After selecting/reading a topic within a block, there does not seem to be a way to get back to that block and read the next one of interest. I had to note the fact that there was more than one topic within the block, and then I went back through the search mode again and again to be able to access each one. ?????

The "Back" button on your Browser should accomplish this.

The "Back" button works fine for this. With Internet Explorer, there is a small arrow next to the Back button which you use to go back to a specific page. Not sure about Netscape.

Another option is to open the selection in a new window. Usually this is done by doing a right-click on the selection. Then select "Open in new window" from the little pop-up menu. After you're through with that window, simply close it and you're back at the original list. The advantage of this method is that, depending on your browser and other factors, the Back method may have to reload the original list screen. Also, with the "Open new" method you can have any number of windows opened if you need to reference more than one at a time.

Rich: Gee Whiz! Thanks. Mal: I'm on M-soft
Explorer, and I couldn't quite figure out what you are describing. But the Back arrow is good enough.
