	Weird problem that has just been addressed on my forum?? On the front forum page where it shows the new post icon, and then when you go into the post and back out its supposed to disapear.. Well it doesn't?? If you use the Active Topics it works fine, but the front page seems to have a problem? The new post icon stays no matter what? Where in the code is the script that controls this?? As I want to check I haven't deleted any of it with my tinkerings ... Thanks

	The icon is to show if the forum has been posted in since your last visit, not if there are any new posts, as this would use to many server resources thus slowing down your forum.

	Sorry.. My mistake on the description But even if you go into the forum come back out the icon is still there like someone had posted - But you go back in and its the same post you saw.. Will it still stay there until you close the browser down?? because if you do this then re-open the icons disapear...

	The icon is session-based. It highlights new posts since your last session. It's not affected by how you navigate within a session.
	Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.
