Quickly moving forward in page results

    Hi Baron,

    sometimes during searches, I may get a few hundred pages worth of results. Previously, navigating around was still quite ok because you could for example skip ahead by a hundred pages. The new page browse scroll bar apparently only allows me to skip ahead 10 pages at a time? It will also be nice if one could specify the page number of the search results to jump to?

    Perhaps I'm missing some default settings or shortcuts that would solve the above-mentioned?

    Please advise.

    Thanks in advance.

    If you want to jump forward you can do a couple things. The arrow that you see between say, the first five page numbers and the last page, is actually clickable. When you click on that arrow, it fast forwards the available pages that can be clicked on. Click on that and you'll see what I mean.

    If the result set is really big, go to any page of results except the first one, (let's say you're on page 2 for example) and then look at the URL of that page in your browser's bar and just change the portion of the URL that says page=2 to page=400 or whatever you need. So you would change a URL like this:

    Code:
    http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?search/2204/&page=2&q=brokers&o=date
    to something like this....

    Code:
    http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?search/2204/&page=400&q=brokers&o=date
    Hope that makes sense.
