Jackie: Oh not at all. I was just registering a mild complaint implying that the message is unnecessary. Sometimes to exit it you have to click once, sometimes twice. But if you click twice when you should have clicked once, this sometimes takes you to a page you didn't want to be at.
In most all other respects, though a mite complicated than most, AWAD is a fine algorithm

Oh, sorry, eta, but sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. Yet other sites get along without the message entirely

yeah, the question then is, do you get the message only when you've been "in" the thread a long time, which would indicate some sort of timing thing that the forumware has, that other forumware may not have, or that the forum admin has set differently? or not?

eta: No i don't. If Admin is monitoring this thread, may I respectfully note that the message is a real nuisance and ought to be dropped at the next housekeeping
But long live WS, I love you
And thanks to all for your tact and infinite patience

...may I respectfully note that the message is a real nuisance and ought to be dropped at the next housekeeping... I'm not sure where the message comes from... the board specifically or your browser. It may be possible (with some programing) to link certain page requests for old pages to the newer version of the page, but that may require a hardware upgrade to deal with all those page title translations. I respectfully submit that it is a part of this board/system that would be rather *costly to change. dale... You'd never see them if you didn't use the "back" button!  Onward and forward! CHARGE!!!  (ps - next time you get the expire notice, try a "refresh" then answer "retry".)

Pooh: Thanks
But how do you go back without the back button
Forgive an old non-geek for not mastering all the technique
