Great snow. I wish I could ski properly.

My old bookmarks don't work with the new forum. They take me to the home page. For example to access...

http://radified.com/cgi-bin/YaBB/YaBB.cgi?board=general;action=display;num=1117581957;start=

I need to use...

http://radified.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1117581957;start=

Any simple way to resolve this?

Domo irrigato. (That's what I say in a sushi restaurant).

In an effort to reduce server resource usage, I've deleted the old (v1.4) forum,and redirected traffic from those old threads to the home page of the new forum.

All old v1.4 threads have been converted over to the new v2.1/2.2 forum (this one).

You can still access these old threads which began in v1.4 by using the principles found here:

Brain

I keep a lot of my links in a text file that I open in WordPad.

I used the *Edit>Replace* function in WordPad to find *YaBB/YaBB.cgi?board=general;action=display;* and replace with *yabb2/YaBB.pl?*. Hit *Replace All* and it was done!

I think you can export your browser bookmarks into a text file--then use the above technique by opening it with WordPad, and then import them back to your bookmarks--you'd have to test that out--I have not done that myself!

I don't know too much japanese but I know that "domo arigato" means "thank you" but what does "domo irrigato" mean? Where is the toilet ... :-/ ... ?

Got a belly-laugh outta me with that one.

I didn't know how it was spelled.

"irrigate" = toilet. very clever.

Rad,
I always hesitate on jokes like that since english is not my maternal language and what I think is funny is to at least 50% based on what would be funny in swedish and things can get very misunderstood. I'm glad it worked!
