Why does 
" Latest Contributions (Was Re: Reading comma delimited .csv data files)"

and

"Re: Latest Contributions (Was Re: Reading comma delimited .csv data"

appear as different items when they are in the same thread? They must be in the
same thread because clicking on either takes you to a age that contains both
items.


The date is misleading. Only items in the last week should have 'DAYNAME' in it.
All others need YYYY/MM/DD formatting for easy mental sorting and cross cultural
formats.


The ability to sort by Thread Topic would be very useful when looking for a
specific thread.

Can you use a bit more CSS in the HTML and less hard-coded formatting? For
example, if the date column was something like <td style=eudate>&nbspWed
23:13</td>, I can then use my own style sheet to enforce fixed-size fonts for
easier reading. Also, I don't think the <br> is needed after the date. That would
also significantly reduce the size of the transmitted page.

Instead of limiting the page to a maximum of 25 articles, might it not be better
to make the limit based on size of page? That would help consistant transmission
times. Maybe this could be a user setup option?
