Great Food Bulletin board

Help! I'm a newcomer both to the computer and the Cooking Light boards. This is a dumb question, probably, but, I'll ask it anyway.

When I am reading an interesting post and there are numerous responses I don't know how to move to page two etc. Because of this I can only read the first few entries. I know this must be simple but, I can't figure it out.

Not a dumb question at all. There was a first time for all of us on a computer at one time or another...

If you are only able to see the first few posts, then you may not have yet discovered the Scroll Bar. It is on the very right of the window that you use to visit websites and it looks something like this:
http://www.cookinglight.com/images/scrollbar.gif

You just click on the "up" or "down" arrow to scroll up or down a page. There are variations on the "look" of the scroll bar, but you get the idea.

Also, each page is limited to 35 posts, so pages that run over 35 posts to a thread will have several pages - you can tell at the very top of the thread - it will say "this topic is 2 pages long" and then it will give you the page numbers which you can click on to see the remaining pages.

Hope this helps.
