Hi, ( version 7.9 )
When linking to a page in a web wiz forum, does anyone know of a way to have that link point to a specific post on that page?
I suspect the term is "ancor" in html, but I don't know if it's possible to do this in the web wiz forum. Thank you,
Steve

you'd have to code an anchor in each post and add a link to that anchor within the post that people could copy.
You might want to look at how the url for the edit post button is set up -
PID=Post #
PN = Page # in thread
TPN - Total Pages in thread
------------- 
Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me. |

TID = Thread ID (Thread number), like this thread is number 13171, then
it will be forum_posts.asp?TID=13171 and if you want to link to another
page (for example page number 3) then you add &PN=3
(forum_posts.asp?TID=13171&PN=3) Edit: Ooops, I think I misread our question, but maybe it was useful anyway. and I wrote TIP instead of TID, don't know how I made that though |
