. . . and if you add these lines to the results:
Code
Recent Posts | http://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?action=recentdense
New Replies | http://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?action=unreadreplies
Unread Posts | http://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?action=unread;all
Specials | http://www.donationcoder.com/Specials/index.html

You'll have quick access to a few more critical dcforum features.

This sure is a nice proposition!
But i think the regex should be: ^dc[ ]*(.*)
So as 'dc' is only matched at the beginning of the line, and you can have access to the "critical dcforum features" without having to type the space after dc (i.e. "dc ")
Good idea you both had!  :Thmbsup: :Thmbsup:
