Do threads you've clicked on stay highlighted in your active convos list?

[SimplySparkling]

It used to be that when I clicked on a thread and then clicked out, it would stay highlighted in the active convos list for a little while (days?) Now, it doesn't but some topics that I haven't clicked on for weeks i.e. ante-natal are still highlighted weeks and weeks later. Anyone else noticed this? I know I can still find threads using Threads I'm On and Threads I'm Watching but I found the highlighting very useful and it involved no effort on my part. [lazy emoticon]

Oh, yes, and apostophes come out as and symbol, hash symbol, 39, semi colon in my previews, too. I've taken them out and changed the wording previously but this time I'm going to leave them in and see what happens. Living on the edge, aren't I?

Hi there, the ' thing is a bug with previewing new threads. We'll fix it over the weekend.

On the other thing, any thread you've visited before should be your browser's "visited" colour (that dull purple usually). If you delete your "browsing history" though, then they go blue again, or after a certain number of days they do too.

I don't think we've changed anything there recently that would affect this.

Thanks for your reply, Tech. You've lost me on the "browsing history" thing. I'll have to ask dh - or the kids! Thanks again.

Mine don't show as previously clicked on on Mozilla firefox but do on internet explorer.
