Help on IE Browsing

[helob]

If I open OSx86 Project Forum and click on any title like OSx86 Project Forum>Apple The PC Forum and select a topic like Keyboard & Mouse Problem, I can view content of Post 1 follow by a list of "Posts in this topic"

I need to click on each reply post in the list to view the content.

What can I tweak/configure to have all the posts in the list open up all at once?

 

I am using IE6 running WinXP. I know it can be done as I have seen it on Safari where the content of posts are open one after another instead of showing a list.

Thank You for your Help.

Hi helob,

 

what you may have done is clicked the options button inther forums you were viewing

there are normally three buttons, 'reply', 'new' & 'topic' 'options'. If you have clicked the

options button and selected switch to 'outline' this is why you are not able to view the

forums in full as you would like to.

 

you will need to delete the cookie for osx86project.org found in your temporary internet

items folder. In IE6 go to Tools... Internet Options... Heading of Internet Temporary Files.

Click on settings... View Files... you will be presented with cached objects in your

Internet Temporary Files Folder.

 

Usually C:\Documents and ettings\YourUserName\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

once there you will need to delete the cookie for osx86project.org it will look something

like the following: osx86projectusername@forum.osx86project[2].txt

 

highlight this file & delete then close IE6 & restart IE6 then log back into www.osx86project.org

you should now be presented with a FULL VIEW of your forums & not an outline of the forum posts.

 

I hope this helps.

 

regards

Cal.

Thanks a million. It works like a charm after deleting the osx86 cookie. I am surprised that it was not in the forum help and there is no way back after configuring to "outline" except deleting the cookie.

I hope someone can change the options feature so you can toggle among all the display modes.

Thanks again Cal. for your help.
