Re. Editing one's own posts: there's a short period of time when one can do it, but then that ability disappears...forever. Any chance that can be altered?
Yes.  Done.

Update on the search function:  Search index creation is complete but the search function still doesn't seem to be working.  Why this is... unknown, but i'm looking into it.

Also, re. appearance of Board Index:

    Aspen forum currently takes up a whole screen. Could the formatting be changed so that the programs (per category) are listed sentence-wise, as opposed to one per line?

    WFH and TTI fora titles have leftover HTML tags that are not taking, and are perhaps superfluous.

And... THANKS! for all you do!! :D

WFH and TTI forum is fixed.  As per aspen...  I kinda like it with a school per line (makes it a lot easier for a parent, for example, to visually identify which school he/she is looking for).

Yup. Totally understand the rationale. But it's an INDEX, bro. Are you going to do the same thing for WASPS, too? Yet the Straight, Inc. forum has just a paltry few lines, and ya tend to miss that when yer scrolling fast down the page (considering how many screenfuls it is, I'd warrant most people do, in trying to get to the bottom to see who's on).

Methinks alphabetical order within a paragraph, with a paragraph per category (residential, wilderness, etc.). If you bold the programs (and not the locations), they should still be easy to pick out.

Just my thoughts, from an admittedly anal-retentive bear, ya know, with all due respect...

Ok.  You have a point.  Consistency is key.  I suppose, then I'll put all the aspen schools in one big blurb.

Re. Straight, Inc. description on Board Index, and anal-retentive proof-reading thereof:

    •  non-functional HTML tags attached to title
    •  uh...
Pathyway?    ;D
•  as long as you are correcting the above, you might also want to put a period after that second "Inc." in the description (well...maybe ya don't, and that's okay too)[/list]

Also, evil devil emoticon does not appear for me; i.e., this guy:  >:D

Thank you, Ursus.  It's fixed now.  As for the little Devil emoticon... does it not work if you click on it  >:D ?

hmm.. doesn't work for me either.  Will fix.

Re. links within posts:  It used to be that when you clicked a link, it would open in a new tab/page/screen. Currently, clicking the link supplants the current screen, taking you away from the original.

I rather prefer the way it used to be, since often I am comparing information, or, at the very least, perusing with a certain frame of reference...

Is this something that I can tweak in my profile on the control panel? Or is this state of affairs fornits-wide, across the board?

My guess is it's a browser setting.

Hmm... Other sites I visit do not seem to be thus affected, only fornits. Sometimes a site will open a new tab, sometimes supplant the current page with the linked-to one, it depends on the site/page/type of link. It would appear that this is something along the lines of code used to create links directly on the page itself?

Previously, internal links (within fornits) would supplant the current screen, if I remember correctly. But external ones, i.e., links to another site, would open a new tab. That seems to be SOP on other sites as well.
