New window for replies?
When I read I select a topic (AA, for instance), select threads and use the back button to review the menu at the topic, then go on through the whole menu. When I reply to a message I get returned to the thread where I was, but after that I can't use my back button effectively. So, it seems to me it might be useful for me and others to have the reply functions open in a new window so that when I'm done, send, close, I'm back right where I started. Many/most/all? of the URL's embedded in messages do this.

How about just doing a right click on 'Post Reply', and doing a 'Open Link in New Window' ?
This would give you the desired result in IE.

Works in Netscape too; thanks. I'm not so used to the wonders of right clicking.

Shift+click does the same thing a bit easier.

I guess in IE. In my Netscape, that opens a download window.
