The “URL adjustment” is there so that when clicked it scrolls down the page. It’s like a mini-link on a page. It says “I want to go on this page AND I want to go “X” far down the page.

What browser and OS are you using?

I wasn’t paying enough attention so I guess it wasn’t an important point, but when you reply to a message it gives you a URL for the page with different code bits added in to it:
http://www.heroesoflesserearth.com/2009/10/567-%E2%80%93-warning-shot-%E2%80%A2-03/comment-page-1/#comment-23093
That URL is what was returned after I posted my statement about the murky, weaksauce disgrace of Shadowrun. That should make sense of my earlier cryptic nonsense that accompanied my whining.

Oh, while I’m whining: The “buy the books” graphic and the “suggestion box” graphic both overwrite the comic image and the text underneath it regularly in my browser view still Lena.

Maybe. I just searched back and couldn’t find any flagged comments. We have had people hit the “Cancel” button by mistake when they meant to hit “Submit.” Hell, I’ve done it. In any case, let me know if it happens again and I’ll try to keep my eyes open. (I don’t know what “the URL adjustment from your posting script” means but I’ll ask Lena.)

It seems I’m being flagged as a spammer; a post I attempted to make under the post for Wednesday the 7th of October didn’t show up, and the URL adjustment from your posting script had “566-–-warning-shot-•-02″ in it.

The “first comic” link got lost in the transition. I didn’t even realize it wasn’t there any more. So, good catch. Thanks.

Adding the buttons between the comic and the blog are problematic as they aren’t treated as separate elements. I have considered making a navigation control panel in one of the sidebars that I could place to be even with the comic.

Just a couple of thoughts:

For what it’s worth, I’d prefer to have the navigation links directly below the comic (and above the text), rather than at the very bottom of the page. I’m on dial-up and so I like to right-click the “next page” link and have it start downloading into a new tab while I read the text and/or comments. Having those links at the very bottom of the page means I have to scroll all the way down before I can click the link. I end up scrolling up instead to the links at the top of the page, which is almost as inconvenient.

I’d also suggest adding “First page” and “Latest page” links to the navigation, so that those who arrive here via a link from another page to a specific cartoon can have a simple place to click to get to the very beginning or end of the series. Many comic sites offer a four-button navigation bar, something like this:
[|<<- First] [<-Previous] [Next ->] [Latest ->>|]

Thank you! I did. Now, I’ll go chastise Kevin.

If you’re re-editing messages to lower your email visibility you may want to remove it from the one Kevin posted in the comments for Friday’s comic.
And hey, no problem.

Thank you! I got the email. I’ll check it out as soon as I can. Thank you so much for doing this. It is sure to be helpful.
