[QB]No, I'm not. There is a UBB hack that allows you to preview your post before submitting it. UBB is very, very flexible. [/QB][/QUOTE]Care to show us/give us a link? Anyways, the more hacks they put on, the harder it is to update.
I know how hard it becomes to keep the boards current with hacks installed. I run my own UBB. That's why I know so much about it's abilities and code hacks.
OK, I checked. It was about five months between the public beta of 6.1 and the actual final release (not counting 6.1.0.1 and 6.1.0.2 bug fixes). My mistake.

I've offered to help install these hacks and keep the boards current but no takers so far. Oh well!

<strong>It's coming in UBB 6.2, which is currently in private beta. Expect it to go public beta sometime later this month or early in January.

That won't be out for at least another six months, probably (final version), but that's when it's coming.
Just a heads up, these are the other features coming with 6.2:
1. Who's Online
2. Polls
3. Post Preview
4. Email Notification Off Option
5. Private Forum Posting Enhancements
So please don't ask until 6.2's out.
thanks

Infopop is slow, but they're not that slow.
