Fascinating! Thanks.

Dear admin

In the last couple of days I've noticed that phone numbers are somehow being deleted from private messages I'm receiving (the last one was a phone number for a cleaner somebody had recommended). Do you know why this might be happening? I've also noticed that phone numbers are being deleted from public posts - but perhaps this is intentional?

Many thanks for investigating

HI I am considering starting up my own wedding planner business, I am new to the

area and was wondering if anyone knows of any names of people who are local

suppliers ie stationery, florists. If anyone does know of anyone would be great

if you could contact me Alison on 07804871433 or email [email protected]


many thanks:)-

Hi


It is preferred that people attach photos to posts rather than embed them into messages as that facility tends to get abused. What I have done is change the text above the text editing box from "Attach a file ..." to "Attach a file or photo ..." to make it a bit clearer for those who struggle.


What other tips would be in the How to section? Tips on "everything" is a bit of a broad subject.

Thank you Admin, but - nope...you are going to have to rack those brains a little further.;-) I am aware of the "blue thing" when using the back button...in which case the "new" reverts to red once the forward button is used. This is different. Here, when I go to a page containing lots of little red "new" messages, I may on occasion amongst the "reds" find a blue "new" - nothing to do with going back. It could happen when I first log on. For example, one thread where this may readily be seen at present is on the "Equality" thread in the Drawing Room. It isn't really a problem (and this certainly isn't a complaint or anything). However, (a) I am curious and (b) it is a little difficult to see by virtue of the fact that it is blue.


But no matter really. Life's too short.

Hi,


I was thinking something around the lines:


How to reduce the size of your picture for publication


How to block/unblock cookies on your machine


How to convert avi to DVD


How to fix the sink


How to bake the best bread


How to lose weight (that will be interesting)

etc.


It will be another "room" for people to discuss their "how to". Anyway it is just a suggestion

Ladymuck, if you have a look at the site using the marvellous firebug, you can see that there are two relevant css classes


PhorumNewFlag {color:#CC0000} applied to, funnily enough, all the 'new' flags.


Then there is


a:visited {color:#000099}


a css pseudo class which uses the browser's knowledge of your browsing history to recolor (sic) any previously visited hyperlinks on that page in a certain colour. That is in the phorum css file edforumstyle.css, so Admin could turn it magenta or puce should (s)he so wish, but blue will suffice.


But it's not trying to anything specifically clever.

I do have a feeling however that if you've cleared down enough read messages on a thread such that the following new post is actually on page 11 when the last one you'd read (and hence where the new was previously pointing) was page 10, this is effectively an unvisited url so it'll show red again.


If you clear your history in your browser options (or visit the forum in a different browser) they will all turn magically red again too


Does that help?

Firebug is a firefox extension, rather than a browser or a website, I'm sorry if I gave the wrong impression.

I should have said 'if you analyse the site using firebug...'


It is a tool mainly used by web developers that allow you to see Ajax calls in the background (requests, parameters and responses). To see all the script files included such as css files, to home in on HTML elements using the GUI, navigate the DOM, dynamically change much of the above and even put breakpoints into client side scripting and do value debugging. Very very useful.


This means that if you want you can change the 'new's to a puce colour, but only on your browser....and only until you reload the page.


Google* firebug, there's plenty of info out there.


*The verb 'to google', not 'google firebug'

    • The ones that do my head in are the ones that are not carrying accessories,  hence, no sight of a water bottle or bowl for the dog! Ok, you can get water in the cafe, but what about the walk round the rest of the park and on the way home.
    • It's also worth noting that heat, direct sunshine and dehydration all exacerbate the effects of alcohol on the human body. So get yourself out there and get truly spangled at a fraction of the cost.
    • Common sense does not prevail. Keep saying things that need to be heard, whether some people are bored of hearing it or not.  
    • For clarity,  since the heat seems to be getting to people - my friends in Hampshire, Essex, Cornwall tell me that the same insanity is happening there - probably in other counties to! I have in the past seen adults walking last year with  young children with no hat or to the best of my knowledge suns-cream on and idiots in Dulwich Park allowing their children or who knows maybe it is the au pair or nanny taking the kids to the park when it is over 30 degrees.. I rest my case - doesn’t matter if you have 4 feet or 2 - 4 feet suffer more as generally have a coat and no protection on their feet / 2 feet at least have foot protection. Like I said, I am just joining  the conversation - everyone has a right to their own opinion. For all you know or anyone, if a person has taken a dump might have been unwell, couldn’t find toilet in time.. numerous reasons - mental health problems, homeless whatever. Not pleasant I agree, but get a pair of rubber gloves and deal with it. We all live in the same community and in this heat with kids about, would have thought plus flies etc - do it if you live on the same street or area / people just walk past I assume and god knows how long council would take to come.  Says nothing about human nature - not my problem… seems to be the way of the world in towns these days.
