Getting From Forum to Forum

H

Handsome

There are so many different named forums here that I do a lot of scrolling...I like will start at the top which is the Trading forum but then I might want to go next to the options forum so I have to scroll down a lot..

Is there a trick to jump immediately from 1 forum to another to save me from all the scrolling I am now doing?

Like from the TRADING forum can I click on something to take me directly to say the OPTIONS forum?
 
page up and page down...but you know that...I think your looking for a first letter indexing or something like that...or maybe a quicklist...hotkeys or something...

No, I didn't know that. I never even used those keys and I just tried the page up and page down and wow, it sure is a heck of a lot faster and better than all that scrolling I have been doing.

Thank a lot!
 
The "Home" and "End" keys function too...

But be careful with those function keys (f-keys at the top of your keyboard)

some mouses also have a roller on them and some notebooks have a touch pad for scrolling too. (many mouses can be programmed to click a page up or down event)
 
Also..

in the 'body" of your scroll bar itself you can click...but it will skip over and not "page" visually incrementally.

P.S. The new free IE7 has some tabbing added for convienence.

P.P.S. I do not speak for Baron, the administrator of this site, but I believe he is sensitive to the addition of too many Forum Titles. There is actually a method to the madness!

If you have specific forums that are your favorites...

Save the direct URL or link to that forum in put them in an easy accessible area in your browser.

Here are my current three favorites:

http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=4

Are you familiar with the "Forum Jump" box at the bottom of each forum page?
