Back To Top by Ophidian

Awesome. You should probably upload this to http://punres.cactuz.nu so it's with all of the other mods.

i like it

SAVE/UPLOAD includes all files.

What I meant was the last row in section 6. The HTML stuff after "exit($tpl_main);" isn't supposed to be there.

Seems this mod is dead, but it shouldn't be too difficult making a similar one for 1.2.x?
It would be cool to have a "back to top" link in each post, for those of us who have at times very long threads in the forums.

Can anyone fix it up again? I would really like to have it!

ok, well 99% of the time i just want to go to the forum view or the forum index, and if i want to go to the top it quicker for me to scroll lol

I'm surprised you're so reluctant to listen to requests. This is a very common feature in forums, for a reason. It's been directly requested by my users, so it's obviously something that some people use.
I'm not saying you should make the mod, but dont laugh off the need for it.

Finger-home? So lets just remove the refresh-button in all browsers, since we can hit F5.

I don't think educating 2000 users on shortcut-use is easier than simply inserting a link in the posts

i got a Intelimouse recently and it has a back button on the side, its so amazing, its a good as a scroll wheel

Why not just do something like this?

At the top of the page, add just below '<div id="shadow_wrapper">':

<a id="top" name="top" />

At the bottom of the *.tpl file(s) just above '</body>' add:

<div id="go_top">
    <div class="pun">
        <a href="#top">Back to top</a>
    </div>
</div>

Add the following to your CSS:

div#go_top {display:none} /*this will hide the navigation for browsers like IE that can't handle fixed DIV's */
body > div#go_top {display:block;position: fixed;left:0em;bottom:0em;top:auto;right:auto;} /* This shows the 'back to top' nav link for browsers with real CSS support */

This should take care of the problem without modifying any of the .php files

Edit: fixed code

That's true... but you could always use a javascript to position it instead if you want In general, I don't think one should compromise *to* much to make a page compatible with IE though because that's part of the reason a lot of users don't switch to something better... Why would they switch if all pages looks right in their current browser?
