  • Forums in new browser or tab?

    EVERYBODY:

    We've recently set the forums to open in a new browser window, or assuming you have "tabbed browsing" enabled, in a new tab. We did this so you could stay in place in two or more places, if you know what I mean. We've had feedback in both directions, so this is a poll. Do you like it or not? It can change back, so let us know. You can post here, or message me, or email me at laclass@gulftel.com. Or you can mention it to Connie; you know we talk fairly regularly!

    Thank you in advance for your input!

      I just voted in the poll Jim. So far with my vote it is 100% for. As soon as I get more proficient at using this thing, I'll know the difference between the two. Thanks for the hard work Jim.

        I like the Forums in a new window because my computer always signs me out everytime I leave them and go back to the home page or any other page. It's a real aggravation to have to sign back in every time just because I have two minutes and want to check for new posts.
        This way I do not have to sign back in to the forums because that window stays put. It's a WHOLE LOT easier for me. So there's my two cents.

            "tabbed browsing" enabled????????
            Sounds good to me. If you think it is better, you're the expert.

              Just checked the poll on the new browser, quite a few views but only four votes.

                I added another option, "Don't really care." Didn't think of that when I created the poll. That might explain the 30 views and 4 votes.

                  James, with 67 views and only 11 votes maybe you should have only had one chioce--I don't care

                    Maybe. I though an actual poll would help Jim's survery

                      If I hold the "CTRL" key while clicking "Forums", it opens a new tab instead of a whole new page. That's some better. I just have to remember to hold the "CTRL" key.
