Dimming of read messages not working
It used to be that unread messages would appear as BOLD in message lists and, after reading them, they would then appear in normal text.
Now all messages are always appearing in BOLD, whether the message has been read or not.
Anyone else notice this?

Murf, I think it's a browser function triggered by the html that is served up by a web site, perhaps with the aid of info stored in the local machine cache. Mine used to work like yours, then it stopped. Not sure when or why, thus the question.

You mean the thread title dims right Ken?Just tested mine and it does not do that and yes it did. Trying to think back and I believe it may have happened when I downloaded Internet Explorer is it "8"? but the most recent one released about a month back. Don't hold me on that month, might have been two weeks or two months.

Yes, the thread title used to dim once the post was read. I don't use IE and haven't downloaded IE8 so it's not that but Microsoft is downloading updates all the time so that could have something to do with it.

The dimming of visited links is set in a style sheet that determines the color of the text to display when a link has been clicked on.I have had them set to display a different color for a really long time.It only lasts for the current session.Firefox and IE7 both handle these tags correctly, I don't have IE8 yet,when I used the IE 8 Beta it blue screened my machine, so I have stayed away from it.Dennis

Dennis, this does appear to be a problem with FireFox since it works fine on IE7. There's a bug report on it but they don't seem to be making any progress since it seems to affect all 3.x releases. The same problem happens on craigslist so it's not a TP problem.
Here's a link to the bug report if you're interested.

The solution is that Firefox history has to be kept for at least one day for this feature to work. Setting the history to one day fixed it. I had turned history off awhile back for reasons I don't recall and forgot to turn it back on.
