I''ve seen several boards that use this differently because of the way their boards are ordered, either newest to oldest or vice versa. Because of this, you might want to change those to say "Next Newest Topic / Previous Older Topic" or something similar. Makes it a bit more clear on how your system is using them. And is it ordering them by initial post time or Topic_ID, or is it by last post to that topic. BeS It''s Da BOMB Baby!!!
