OK. It should now keep track of new messages from the database if you log in and with cookies if you don't. Not terribly well tested, but it seems to work right. All messages will appear as new the first time you log in, but just click Mark All Read and it should get you current. Let me know if there are problems.

For some reason, I actually prefer the new system whereby after you post a new message, the thread pops back up as "New" instead of assuming you've read your own message as it did for the first few weeks. Reminds me comfortingly of the way CHDF did things, too.

As of right now, if you are not logged in, no messages show up as "New" (at least on my computer).

Whoops. It seems the problem is fixed (or never existed). Never mind!

well, I still see nothing as "new", so it definitely exists in my reality

disclaimer - my mom is VERY cool (she has a glow in the dark blow up man)and I love her lots ( but she seems incapable of hanging up the phone once you get in a conversation)

Nope, you were right. I fixed the message page. Still have to fix the thread listing.

I'm still not getting any "new" tags on the main page thread listing, even though there have definitely been new posts since my last visit. I'm using IE version 6 and I am not logged in.

Except for my own post. This thread had a new tag after I posted.

Just tried to update my profile with a new email address. After clicking on "update profile," a box came back saying "the form contained no data." What's up?
