A "Go" button in the category dropdown menu

[joohang]

A little inconvenience I found with AT forums.

Say I open a thread in "Off Topic" through the "today" feature. Then I want to browse through the list of threads in the OT forum. I can't use the category drop down to get there because I'm already in OT.

So:
- I have to go to another forum, then switch to OT (since the script executes only when the selection changes).
- Or go to "home" and then go to OT.

It's both inconvenient and wastes server load/bandwidth. Adding a "Go" button beside the dropdown (the "traditional" way) along with the script "on selection change" would be nice.

i second the suggestion, that setting would be very useful

You don't have to go through all that even now - after you select & read the thread from the "Today" feature, then click on : THREADS : from the [ FORUMS : THREADS : REFRESH : NEXT THREAD ] area at the top or bottom of the screen, you'll be in the Off Topic forum then (as used in your example).

I first noticed that 2 weeks after I joined. It kinda hard to see.

It took me a long time to notice that too. It's really handy.
