You'd have an edit window, although not a long one, to return to your post, at least. Is there a reason why the edit facility is not permanently on?

Mousse from a bowl is very nice, but to put it on a person is demented!
That feature does not seem to be included in this board. I don't know if there's a plug-in that would add it though. I'm not very 'up' with this system -as excellent as the software is, the supporting documentation is atrociously bad IMO.
As it is, if you preview your post before submitting it and scroll down the page, the recent replies can be seen.

There's a courtesy edit time to rectify typos etc., and then a further edit time to make amendments but a 'last edited' time will be logged to indicate that the posting has been altered since it was originally posted.
Of course, admins/mods can always change posts for anyone who spots an error after the edit time has passed if need be.

Ahh, I didn't know I could do that.
Thanks very much.
Worst signature ever.
Thanks for the explanations, both. I guessed as much.
The JREF board has it, so it might be worth asking about it over there.
Better sorry than safe.
Well I got a bit sidetracked looking for plugins.
We now have the Zoints profile system.
I haven't got a clue what it's all about mind you.
But we've got it anyway.

On the psedoscience board there is a moved post from DrB which isn't accessible- to do with a Talk in Brum which I think may refer to the Science and Pseudoscience One-day conference on Saturday, 15th March 2008 University of Birmingham,
Is there anyway the post could be dragged out of limbo and into the light, because it does look interesting.

I experience a problem with the Latest Posts function.
Every time I use one of the links in that area at the bottom of the main page, it logs me out.
Thought it was me messing up at first, but I'm sure that it's the forum chucking me out. How rude of it!
Anyway, heads up on it - don't know if anyone else gets this problem?
Using XP and Firefox, both latest versions.
I have XP and Firefox and it works OK for me.
Anyone else getting this problem?
That's an add-on feature. Maybe it relies on cookies or something. I'm not sure TBH.

Bored heads up - I'm still getting this problem.
I'm sure cookies are at standard defailt settings and I always tick the "keep me logged in" option every day. Can't think of anything else that might affect it..?
I'd try clearing your cookies and exit your browser.
Restart it and come back here, then log on with the "keep me logged on" ticked
That sorts out most problems like this
Defendants might as well have said: Beneficent creatures from the 17th dimension use this bracelet as a beacon to locate people who need pain relief and whisk them off to their home world every night to provide help in ways unknown to our science.

Sorry to disappoint, but that is my standard practice every day on this machine.
As an addendum, the problem I have with the new posts links also kicks me out when browsing in IE7 and Chrome.
Perhaps I should specify that I'm clicking the little arrow buttons that display the alt text "Jump to first unread...."
Hope that helps!
