I was wondering if we could have a
View previous topic :: View next topic
at the bottom of a thread page like we do at the top so that I don't have to scroll all the way up to go to the next or previous topics.
Thanks.

Use your browser's Back button to go back to the topics list in that forum. Or use Ctrl-Home to jump to top of the page.

It's faster if I use Alt-Left arrow to go back, and I do use Control-Home, but that is not what I want to do, I want read down to the bottom of the last page of a message, then either go to the next or the previous note in the topic with a click.

CalmDragon, I used to use Alt-Left until I started hitting web sites where it didn't work ... wound up taking more time overall, so now I just use the back button on my keyboard (yes, keyboard, I'm lucky to have one & I can find it quickly without even looking).
But going to the next or previous note in a topic is not what you asked at the start, so now I am confused. There is already a prev-next navigation code at the bottom of each page of a particular topic IF there is more than just one page (15 messages, original post +14 replies per page).

Anyway, I was just trying to help, but I think this question is beyond me, sorry.

Warll, don't you have to have a mind for you to have any ill intent in it? :roll:
