In the new version of Mudcat I've lost track of how to bookmark a thread. Help, please?

In a thread-- just between the thread's posts and the compose box is a blue bar, and in it is the phrase ADD TO TRACER. Just click it.
tHE WORD trace ALSO APPEARS IN THE FAR RIGHT COLUMN OF THE TOPIC LIST, AND CLICKING THAT DOES THE SAME THING.

iN EITHER CASE, THE THREAD TITLE (oh DAMN capslock!) appears as a link on your personal page, along with the color change when a new post has been added.

Of course, you also can bookmark any thread in your browser or find it in your beoswer's history file.

In Netscape 4.76, which I use, and probably all Netscapes, Control-D adds the current address on line to the bookmarks.

Oops, what must have happened was that I was temporarily cookie-less (victim of the mysterious cookie monster), so when I looked for the "Trace", it wasn't there. Didn't realize I was without my cookie until I tried to post this question, then in the process of fixing it didn't notice the "trace" reappeared...

Thanks.

Thank you. I didn't know that! This thread is now the first link on my personal page!

It's one of the advantages of Mudcat membership...
