While investigating how to reduce the sheer volume of topic and message posting displays, I came across this line in the help section:
At the bottom of each topic, there is a 'Topic Options' button. Pressing this button will expand the topic options box.
I blame the length of time I spent looking for that button on the fact that I was watching TV at the time, too. :-/ Eventually, I found the button as part of the *top of the topic display. Now that I know where it is, I won't be referring to the help section, so if you don't change it to reflect the right place to look, I'll probably never see it.
Oh, BTW, are you offering a bounty for finding spelling errors there? ;-) :-|
