After posting to a long thread ....

... to get back to the forum I'm posting in, I tend to press the back button a few times to get back.

Is there another way, apart from scrolling to the top? Usually if I've looked at a thread's first post to see whether I want to post on it, I get back by clicking the forum I'm in at the top (e.g."Forums>prince.org site discussion"), but that button isn't at the bottom of threads, as far as I can see.

Good point... maybe we need a "back to forum" link at the bottom of each thread?

Yeah...or just duplicate the "Forums > General Discussion > Thread Title" links at the bottom.

:LOL: Me too! Except when I've used the "Preview" function more than once, in which case I have to guess whether I want a 4-click return, or a 5-click return, then I overshoot and I'm accidentally viewing some other thread...and then...well...ya know...
