Hi Dan,

Still getting the "1st post" message on most replies to messages, and using the back/refresh/paste/submit to clear them.

Also, a thought about point allocation (which may have been suggested in the past).

Is it possible to add in an extra colummn to the list of a users questions from their profile, which would display (for example) 2/7 if they had assigned points to 2 of 7 responses - this would make it easier for people to go back and find the questions which they still have to tidy up.

Not an issue but a suggestion.

I'd like to see the profile changed to show three lists for points/posts.

One list for replies not yet rated.
One list for replies given 1-7 points.
One list for replies given 8-10 points.

That will make it easier for me to know if my reply was not on target and thus given few points, or if the person just never gave points. Then I won't have to wade through all of my replies to see if I was off base in my reply.

TIA.

Sean

Just a suggestion but could the pages on the forum answers, be left justified so that the important information remains on portrait prints rather than having to change to landscape ? or are we at the mercy of HP marketing & design ?

Hi Dan,

Twice today I've gone in to assign points to my Sys Admin Humor thread. Both times I've had to assign the points twice to actually get it done. I don't know what I am (or am not) doing, but something is not quite behaving correctly.

Hi All....

Chris: I've been getting a few odd reports about the "1st message" acknowledgment page. It may be a cache issue, but more needs to be looked into. Apologize for this until we get it resolved.

Sean: I've got your suggestion noted, thanks for idea. All suggestions are tracked and prioritized for the lab.

Nick: Our hands are tied due to overall ITRC navigation, etc.

Patrick: This has been reported by others...I'm not sure why. I've not had a problem with it. I've got the lab looking into it.

Thanks,
Dan

I was causing self-inflicting pain by browsing the forum with "lynx" (for those that do not know: lynx is an extremely fast ASCII-only browser - hence the speed), and even managed to get here :)

The (Submit) button does not work in lynx :(

On every page I get messages like

Accept invalid cookie domain=.hp.com for 'forums.itrc.hp.com'? (n)

Shouldn't that be "hp.com" or "itrc.hp.com", i.e. no leading dot?

It might just be *tests*, but if the list shows a count (2) for replies, I *do* expect to see them when I enter the thread:

http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,,0xef0f543254bfd611abdb0090277a778c,00.html

shows 2, the thread is empty

Just kill my curiousity

We're just toooo quick :) Both HP test threads have disappeared.

Sean OB_1 — Fri, 06 Sep 2002 13:52:24 GMT

Dan,

I'd really like to see the link color, and visited link color be modified a bit to have more of a difference.

I use a laptop 5 days a week and on the laptop there is virtually no difference in the colors.

So I can't tell what links I've already seen. It's very, very annoying.

H.Merijn Brand (procura — Fri, 06 Sep 2002 13:57:08 GMT

Sean, That's not up to HP, it is a browser setting.

Opera: Alt-P -> Fonts and Colors -> My link style
Mozilla: Edit->Preferences->Appearance->Colors
Netscape: See Mozilla
IE:

A suggestion as well:

Same as Sean's above:
I'd like to see the profile changed to show three lists for points/posts.

One list for replies not yet rated.
One list for replies given 1-7 points.
One list for replies given 8-10 points.

For the same reasons.

Dan,

Today I've had to submit points for replys many times before they take. I have one thread I've submitted three times now and they still don't show.

Sean OB_1 — Fri, 06 Sep 2002 19:18:29 GMT

Procura,

It's only a browser setting in two instances.

1: if the page doesn't set them.
2: if you choose to override the settings on all pages.

The HP pages set the colors, and I don't want to override all sites colors with my own as that causes many problems.

Hi Dan,

I REALLY wish there was some icon or other indicator that shows up when a thread gets moved from one group to another.

Take today for example. There appears to be a dozen or more threads that have been moved, so they list 0 responses. There are also some new threads that have 0 responses. In this case it is VERY difficult, without opening each and every 0 response thread, to determine which threads have been moved, and which are real questions awaiting an answer.

Just my 2 cents for today.
