Hi all Can someone tell me what is the (permalink), between the post number (#) and top link (Top). Ta
It's to give the link to that post rather than just the thread. So the link to this thread is: http://www.hardwareforums.com/permalink-wth-12352/ And the link to your specific post would be: http://www.hardwareforums.com/permalink-wth-12352/#post78939
I believe the #postnumber is an anchor point within the HTML which as matt said, allows you to jump to a specific post. the top link does just that - sends you to the anchor point at the top of the page/thread.
Yup having: #postnumber means the browser can jump the part on that page where that post number is in a tag: <a name="post78957"> That means when someone links to: http://www.hardwareforums.com/permalink-wth-12352/#post78957 The browser jumps to the part of the page where that text after the # is placed.
