    Am I missing a really easy joke or you didn't post the correct picture?

    The joke is he is using FireFox 😉

    Tx!

    Oh, that hurt! 1 point for you.

    Actually, I use 3 browsers to further 'categorize' my browser tabs. Primary is FF (ya, I know - you prefer Chrome), then IE for blog/wordpress stuff, and Chrome for research and temporary non-sense. I suppose this example SHOULD have been in Chrome.

    Gail, aren't you a moderator still? Maybe you can just whack that whole thread in Steve's absence.

    I've never been a moderator here.

    Crystal ball needed here. I forgot mine at home. 😀

    I handed him "a" solution. And that he doesn't complain, he got *exactly* what he asked for! 😀

    Well look at that, the OP is even pleased with the solutions :w00t:

    Your kidding me. What started as a joke turned into a beautiful cte, and somewhere along the line, this answered his question? I'm beside myself.

    I've never been a moderator here.

    I'd add Gail, but the moderator stuff on the page adds a LOT of overhead. Over 1kb / page, and I don't want to eat up her bandwidth.

    1 KB or 1 MB?

    Even Gail can handle and extra KB once in a while!

    P.S. I wouldn't mind mod access to be able to wipe out the spam myself without having to cry wolf and wait 1 hour all the time ;-).

    I thought I remembered you saying it was a few hundred kB extra. 1kB is nothing, almost all the pics on the page are 100x that or more and a normal thread view is around 300kB (according to firefox).
