Dan, before you changed the site to the new look when replying to a message i could see the message and any other replies but now when replying i don't see the original message. i see where i can go back to review the topic but that means going back and forth between windows to answer any questions.

That has nothing to do with the redesign of the site. This was a feature change in the newest version of this message board software. If you are using Netscape (which doesn't support IFrames, or Inline-Frames) you just get a link to review the thread in a second window. However, if you are using Internet Explorer, which does support IFrames, you get a frame within the message frame that has the thread in it. Probably the only useful thing I've seen IFrames used for... So, in this case, IE users of the site have it nice on the MsgBoard..
