Hi,

Not sure if there is an obvious place to find this info but on many occasions, I have wanted to save a certain thread for future reference but not sure if this is possible. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Megan.

Dear Megan

On each page there is a small yellow folder icon, just above your name. That "contains" the URL to the individual page. If you right click on that one you will usually have a "bookmark this link" option.

This page for example is

http://www.gotheborg.com/cgi-bin/discus/show.cgi?50069/544500

Got it! Thanks JE. This will be useful as there are many times I read a thread and then think of it later and can't remember where I saw it. Best, Megan.

Modern browsers have a lot of options for saving content. The yellow folder icon contains the address to this particular message.
If you point and right click on that, your own browser will give you several options on how to save it on your browser.
This screen capture is from firefox:
