Preview Post Upgrades?
    #7436019 - 09/21/07 10:38 AM (16 years, 4 months ago)

Hey Admins,
Since the preview post window size feature was added, I do a lot of reading entirely in the preview window. I like how the thread can be navigated using the arrows at the top. :thumbup:

I bet this uses less bandwidth since instead of a whole page being served up with formatting, tables, sigs avatars function buttons etc, it is only sending the bare necessities (who, how long ago, & the post).

What would be really cool is having the preview post window look sort of like the following quote:

</font><blockquote><font class="small">Quote:</font><hr />
<        By Whoever (420 days ago)       >
<a href="/forums/showflat.php/Number/7217046#Post7217046" onmouseover="getBody('7217046')" onmouseout="delayHide()" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">#7217046</a>
(normal post contents appear here,
blahblahblahblahblah)

<a href="https://www.mind-media.com/go.php?http://google.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Show full thread</a>

<hr /></blockquote><font class="post">

Clicking "Show full thread" would compile the thread into one downsized "digest" (I believe that's what it's called) where every post in the thread is shown in the preview post, and would then look somewhat like this
</font><blockquote><font class="small">Quote:</font><hr />
<a href="/forums/showflat.php/Number/7217046#Post7217046" onmouseover="getBody('7217046')" onmouseout="delayHide()" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">#7217046</a> by Whoever re: JoeBob's <a href="#7217045" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">#7217045</a>
(post contents for Whoever's
post appear here,
......... etc....)

<a href="/forums/showflat.php/Number/7217046#Post7217047" onmouseover="getBody('7217046')" onmouseout="delayHide()" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">#7217047</a> by SomeoneElse re: Whoever's <a href="#7217046" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">#7217046</a>
(post contents for Whoever's
post appear here,
......... etc....)

<hr /></blockquote><font class="post">

So the whole thread would be listed slimmed down. Clicking on the post number could take you to the thread itself, jumping to the post (by appending the #Post... bookmark).

Clicking the post number which it was Re: could jump to that post in the preview post window - again by links to "#....". This second part isn't really a pressing issue, but it could help track back replies in the thread all within preview post.

Of course the full listing would have to be made unavailable for really large posts (like The Thread).

I also think it would be a really bad idea to put a reply box right in the preview post, unless it could be made that the window would not disappear when the mouse moves away, if there is text in the box.

Thanks for reading. I have no expectations, but figured it may be worthwhile since my last feature request was quickly implemented. Well done :scaryshroom:

there is a firefox addon that is just like that,
you hold the mouse over any link and this little blue thing appears.
hold your mouse over the blue thing and a mini browser thing pops up with all the buttons too

Sounds like a lot of work. :tongue: And I don't really see how it would improve much on the current setup where you can click the arrows to move between posts. Also we have an obligation to our advertisers, they expect a certain amount of exposure so I'm not too keen to build a complete replacement for the traditional page view. But thanks for the suggestion. :smile:

This gets better and better, I can reply to posts from the preview now which is another feature I had asked Ythan about.
