Would it be possible for the techies to add a little line of code that shows who is active on the forum? Some forums do have this, and some don't, so it should be doable. It is not something important, but might be interesting to somebody, as there are quite often people browsing, who do not contribute.

The line would read similar to -- Readers active on forum, Eric, Timbo, Dave and 3 guests, or whatever. 

Yes I'd like that Eric, I've asked in the past and will keep at it

Me too ..... ( David did you get my e-mail this morning to Sean  - CC to yourself ? )

Coincidentally one of the topics I asked him about was this very subject.

Yes Tim, thanks

He's a good chap but it helps if he knows what you think.  

• As with all sites we all tend to check as much as possible in all areas,this is to find out how the system works/ laid out.....When the time factor plays a great deal in finding  threads to the part of system to answer or ask me another question or reply are tasks in themselves,who,s crawling the site i would say everyone,contribution could only take place wants the subject matter intrested in has been identified. As noticed nearly  or getting on for 4,000.00 threads going on,with many on same topic or easily guided via the computer soft ware,it seems not geared up for (automatic set up) roll up upgrades with instant Message/reply while on..,Reply required button box... to the top of this message would be handy.intrested to feedback??another contribution your welcome.

I think Ron was suggesting some sort of index, to save constantly trawling through all the threads to see if the question has already been asked.

Ron's text was a bit confusing, so I may be wrong! Sorry Ron!
