Sheesh!  |  IP: Logged Daniel Boisson Expert Film Handler Posts: 157 From: Buffalo, NY, USA Registered: Oct 2001 posted 10-22-2002 12:19 PM                     Thats pretty funny, I'd love to at least sit in as a witness... yea, I noticed that little back buttom trick....I'd suggest anyone going to view the link right click and open a new window.. ------------------ 3% Body Fat. 1% Brain Activity. ...A projectionist without a theatre...  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 10-22-2002 01:34 PM                        Back button worked fine for me. But to get around Film-Tech's inability to open linked sites in a new window, just right click on the link and choose "Open link in new window" (or something similar). That way you can just close the new window when you are done, and Film-Tech will remain undisturbed. I recommend doing this on ANY link you come across in a post on the forum. Edit: Yeah, what Daniel said.  |  IP: Logged Bob Maar (Maar stands for Maartini) Posts: 28608 From: New York City & Newport, RI Registered: Feb 2001 posted 10-22-2002 02:09 PM                        Dick, I would like to hire this guy as my assistant on the "Joke Forum." Please have him call me when he is freed by the Judge.  |  IP: Logged Dick Vaughan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1032 From: Bradford, West Yorkshire, UK Registered: Jul 2000 posted 10-23-2002 03:12 AM                        Bob Judgeing by the amount of time it got to start the proceedings I wouldn't hold your breath for him joining you anytime soon!  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

Maybe you could try to get further transcriptions as it goes along, Dick? Michael  |  IP: Logged Bruce McGee Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1776 From: Asheville, NC USA... Nowhere in Particular. Registered: Aug 1999 posted 10-23-2002 04:24 PM                     This is a scream. I want to see more, too. What a great thing to do to a lawyer! When I hit my 'back' button, I came right back to the FilmTech start page. Here I am! Bruce  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony. Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 10-23-2002 04:50 PM                     It's not disabling your Back button. The long answer is: There is a script to reset the page into the parent frame, ie, the Film-Tech menu at the left disappears. Your browser's history is seeing this as a new page, so when you hit the Back button, it is backing up to the page in a child frame and the java script kicks in again sending you back forward. You should be able to double click the Back button rapidly to get back here. There is no short answer.  |  IP: Logged Gerard S.
