I am trying to get the "Exchange Page drop down selection with numberurls Mod" to work but I am not having any luck.
I am not getting any errors; it's just not doing anything at all for me.
Any suggestions?
Here's my forum.asp in txt format:

I really wanted this to work for one reason. I have a member who is an 81-year-old lady and the most GODLY saint you could ever hope to know. . .she's a widow. . .and she's legally blind. She has a reading program on her computer called JAWS she refers to as her little man that reads to her. If she doesn't highlight things on a website, her little man reads EVERYTHING. Very annoying, to say the list. She says she has a little peep whole she can see out of and with the help of a magnifier and increasing the zoom level, she can see enough to select different areas on a website so her little man can read it for her.
She can not, however, see to click on the drop-down little arrow to select a different page number and even if she could, I doubt her little man could read those numbers. True, there are worse things in life and she really is extremely thankful that she was familiar with a computer before she developed macular degeneration to the degree of being all but blind. . .or ever being able to get online and do what she does would most likely be hopeless.
And no, she doesn't complain about the drop-down numbers; it was just something she posted one day that brought it to my attention.
So yes, we can live without this. . .but it sure would give me great joy to be able to have the page numbers so her little man could read them for her. She participates on an extremely long thread and this would simply make that much easier for her. At her age, and being a widow with all of her health problems, that's not much else she can do each day. And what she does is to get online and encourage everyone!
So, if anyone has any suggestions as to what might make this mod work, I'm willing to try it! :)

Installation is very simple, nothing to go wrong there. You didn't keep and rename the old routine, but that shouldn't matter. |

Well, what could be making it not work, Carefree?
This is a screen shot of the drop-down menu for the numbers which shouldn't be there but rather the page numbers now, correct?

Well, that's fairly obvious. The instructions are for "forum.asp" and you're looking at "topic.asp".... |

But if this mod doesn't change all of the drop-down number menus to page numbers then I don't need this mod, Carefree.
SORRY!!

OH WOW! That worked! :)
But are the numbers supposed to be displayed in this area? I highlighted the numbers before I did the screen shot so it could be seen easier.

Sorry about the previous post. It appears you and I posted about the same time.

Yeah, it's supposed to show on top right and bottom left, slightly different formatting. |
