1. Looking Interesting

posted by: dave at purpletiger.com

I like the extreme simplicity of this EUforum, but would love to see a threaded
list view option - ie group together posts that are under the same (or RE:)
heading, for later expansion.

A 'tree-view' style display (NOT DHTML) should not be too difficult to
implement.  The list is still the same but gives a bit more organisation to the
content.

Just my two-cents worth.

I prefer email.

Use scripting on the webpages, and you've lost me. I deleted the most of the 
js and java and vb and vbs runtime packages/dlls/ocxs here. The upside is i 
cannot infect myself with the Melissa virus, i tried.

Kat, I only suggest it as an option - it's something that can be implemented
server side very easily - no js/java/vb/etc needed in the browser.  I personally
don't use js in pages unless I really, really need to.

It's the sort of thing that can be provided for those who want it - as a cookie
set option.  If the cookie says they want to use a tree then it shows a tree,
else no cookie/no tree!!  Easy, then you don't need to accept cookies either -
extremely safe!!!

As an example of what I mean you could glance at my Blog/Forum thingy I wrote -
No cookies/Very limited JS (but not necessary - so saef for browsers with JS
turned off!)/Threads based.  There's even an Euphoria section there (but no-one
visits :( )
