Hi all,

Quick update to the forum system. I have just installed a system that makes the Submit button disappear after you click it. This is part one of a system to stop duplicates being loaded by accident.

Part two is a database check which I will be installing later today.

I guess but the moderation effort also takes time so any saving has got to help. Take care.

Yep, the submit button disappears....

Gramps,

It had nothing to do with "fat fingers", but network/server delay.
After submitting a post or reply, if the screen doesn't "update" within seconds, the logical thing to do is to click on the submit button again, invariably creating multiple submissions.

David's mod will stop those impatient people amongst us from doing so.

Well done David. A great improvement.

Good to see the "Fat Finger" fellas standing up for themselves!

How about my call to move that Spell Check button?

LOL
