   I'm not sure I'll see any replies to this question, but I normally look at all New Posts and adjust how many hours or days to look back depending on how long it's been since I was last here.  The little drop-down box that lets one choose how far back to look is stuck on 4 hours and I can't change it.  Is this a forum issue or something maybe with my computer or connection?

Actually, it may be that all of the drop-down boxes are broken.

I can wait patiently if this is forum issue, but if it's something on my end I'd sure appreciate any help fixing it.

Thanks,

TT

	It must be a site issue, I have the same "X" that you have. However, there is no problem when I check for new posts. I am seeing only those that have been posted since my last visit.

	Well, I consulted my IT Professional self and asked myself if I had rebooted my computer. When I said no, I told myself to try that and check back with myself when it was back up. I paid myself $160 an hour for that little consult. So, after a reboot it is working fine. I wasn't seeing an X, by the way. There is a little dropdown arrow beside the New Posts box that let's you choose to look back 2 hours, 4 hours... a year. That drop-down wasn't working at all. Now it is. What really made me decide to reboot was that I noticed drop-downs in other programs, not even online, weren't working. Never saw that before. Anyway, all seems to be back to normal. Thanks Bill Gates. TT

	Wanted to say "thanks" for showing me a better & easier way to find new posts! I hadn't even realized that this existed until I went to see if it was working for me (which it was) ... thanks again!
