I think L for link is a good idea. R for return isn't so bad either. Can I mention that Hil R, while not being a technical implementer, always makes good suggestions on this board? Like how she solved the "admins can't edit" problem, and helped boil some others down with logic. She's definitely on the "helpful problem solver" team that makes things shiny for us on the "whinging plaintiff" side of this thread.
I don't think you can nest quick-edit tags, which I like to do in quotes (or in the future, haiku).
disallow regular HTML. Voila - no more problem html.
There are real reasons why I wouldn't like this:
1. Other tags like b, i, etc. don't break the board when they're not closed properly. They just mistakenly create a lot of bold, italic, etc. text.
2. a quickedit tag always leaves a space on both sides of its contained text. Something like emboldened can't be done with quickedit; you need "real" tags.

and 3. What Noumenon said about nesting tags.

Wrod. This keeps biting me in the ass, because I am stupid.
because I am stupid.
You keep using this word. I do not think it means what you think it means. You are one smart lizard.

From context, I believe she uses it to mean "possessed of a right tasty ass." A detail she might wish to forward to her author in the "slash and be slashed" competition.

So, Noum, you're trying for special hell, then?
I'm not biting her in the ass. It's the QuickEdit doing that. That's why we need to keep the HTML tags and stay away from that hellbound quickedit function.
OK I've figured out something about why threads on the right handle clicking when all have been read differently than normal threads.
If I highlight normal threads with no unread thread, at the end post_id is the last post in the thread minus my maximum posts per page setting. But in the threads on the right, post_id is the number of the last post. So the PHP is generating the thread headers differently in the righthand column.
Maybe they still use the old rather than the new (user settable) variable?
You are correct TB. A separate function generates the list of threads in the right column. But it has nothing to do with the new user settable variable.
