CPian's opinions
-
I was just wondering waht other CPian's views were on the number of posts that you can view on any one page. I do think that 50 is a sensible option [it's the one that I always go for :-D ] but does anybody else think that it would be a good idea if threads didn't overlap pages. e.g. you select 25 posts to view per page and you get the nearest to 25 using full threads or if you selected 50 you would get the nearest to 50 showing full threads. To be honest I think the current formula is excellent but I was just wondering what my fellow CPian's think :cool:

I use the 50/page option too. I don't think it needs changing. The overlapping pages can be a problem when there are a lot of replies, but it doesn't take long to go to the option. Roger Allen Sonork 100.10016 If I had a quote, it would be a very good one.

I also agree with you. Threads should not overlap pages. I also think that adding a couple of more options, like 75 and 100 posts/page, would be even better for those of us with fast connections.

I use the 10 posts/page setting. And don't anyone dare ask me why! Nish :mad:

Maybe the site builder may add such filter tool... A button that provides a calendar control for selecting the "from date" and "to date". So we can read the posts in a forum as someway like
SELECT * FROM FORUM_LOUNGE WHERE DATE_REC >= some_start_date AND DATE_REC <= some_end_date;

One feature I have always wanted is the ability to expand all posts on the page, so I can lean back, leave the page scrolling down and have a good read. :) Simon Following an eye test, I have discovered that I do not need pointdexter-style glasses with 6-inch thick steel frames in order to continue staring at my monitor.

What databases do you use? Oracle, MS SQL Server, Sybase, Informix, IBM DB2, Access, MySQL, etc. ? I personally think that, if you apply what you've learned from the class in your own applications, you would not feel nervous or terrible or something... (excuse me I am not native English speaker).
