Test 01

    Correct answer Zeno Bokor

    So, this is about the OP posting again, which changes the legend to 'not answered' ? What if it's already been marked as 'answered' ? This is silly.


    no, it's not silly, it's actually quite logical.

    Thing is, OP posts a question, thread marked as "Not Answered". Somebody comes in and posts a response so the thread changes to "Possibly Answered" because that's what it is. When the OP comes back and makes a post he has the option while posting to mark his thread as "Answered". If he doesn't then surely the question hasn't been answered yet so it changes the status back to "Not Answered" until somebody comes along with another suggestion at which point it changes to "Possibly Answered". If however the OP marks it as "Answered" then it stays that way and the thread icon changes to the yellow star

    so then, if the last post on a thread is made by the OP the thread is "Not Answered" (unless of course the OP marked the thread as "Answered" when posting). The moment someone else posts it changes to "Possibly Answered".

    (it should turn "Possibly Answered" by my post)

    Edit: yep, it seems i nailed it

    Since I'm using scripts to block display of the "answered" marks, has the answer been questioned yet?

    I see possibly answered.

    Please remember to phrase your answers in the form of a question.  That'll count against you in double jeopardy.

    Or will it?

    Okay....

    1/ As soon as i saw Jesseham's reply i opened the thread... i saw Not Answered in orange.

    2/ There are two check boxes:

         a/ Yes, my question is anwered. With the tick and star icon

         b/ No, my question has not been answered yet. With the balloon and question mark icon

    3/ The default is on 2b.

    I have not checked or ticked anything... and am posting.
