a technical question from an old man

docslep · Feb 22, 2009

i'm twice the age of most of you kids, and therefore i suck with computers. please help me navigate this site better. here's my problem:

1-after reading a post, if you want to return to the forum, is there a way to do this from the BOTTOM of the page? what i have to do is scroll to the top, then hit the back arrow, the hit the refresh button to get the most recent posts. very cumbersome.

2- if i make a post in a thread, then want to go back to the forum, its even more cumbersome. after making the post, is there an easy way to return to the forum? what i do is scroll to the top, then hit "forum" button, then gotta go through the main screen again. after posting, if you push the "back" arrow, you gotta got through your entire posting process, which means you gotta hit "back" 4 times, then get an old screen, the hit "refresh", literally a 6 step process. there's gotta be a better way. can anybody help me to navigate more easily, if possible? thanks in advance.

LOL, You can't be that Old. I'm sure I am Up there with You in age.

But Anyway.....Not sure why you are going through all this.

a technical question from an old man

You will see this above, after reading or Postings. It's kind of split up, even though it looks like one.
I have changed the colors for each one, so It will make it easier for you to see that there are 4, not one.

If you Click the first one ( blue ) this will take you to the Complete list for Forums.

If you Click on the Pink, this will take you Back to the Offshore Sub Forums. If you Click on the Red, it will take you back to the Offshore Forum Only.
The last one ( Purple ) is the Thread name. Click on that one, and it will bring Right back to Your Thread.

Hope that helps.

$20 will get you a 4 button mouse with back and forward buttons on side. You can then go to previous page or page forward at any time with a simple click.
