I'm just testing what I can do. Try my new Folkinfo copy at Mainly Norfolk.
Check e.g. the discussion of Barbara Allen. The links 'Database entry is here' in the 27 Feb 03 02:15 pm post and 'That version was similar to this one' in the 14 Mar 12 08:36 pm post work again.
I'm not sure what the link 'See also Barbry Ellen' in the 27 Feb 03 03:36 pm post to a script forum/topic.php should do.

By clicking on the Subject, you will also go to the thread as if you selected it from the original Forum page, but also go directly to that particular message.
