Going directly to page x when reading a forum

[belch9]

if I'm in a forum, how do I jump to a page that is not listed in the top right or bottom right. It might say "Go to page 1,2,3,...50,51,52 Next" How do I go directly to page 15 (for example), or some other page not listed?

Thanks.

What I've been doing is changing the number in the URL

for example:

Code: Select all

http://www.mye28.com/viewforum.php?f=3&topicdays=0&start=40

Is page 2 of general convo, it's set up to display 40 threads per page, so since this is starting at thread 40 (the first thread is thread #0), it'll be the beginning of the second page.
if you change this to

Code: Select all

http://www.mye28.com/viewforum.php?f=3&topicdays=0&start=80

it'll start on page three

It's not ideal, but it works

PS: It should work the same for posts since phpBB handles them in very much the same way. The default is 25 posts per page, so changing the "&start=" to 25 should bring up page 2. I'm not 100% sure if that's what the beamters have set up here, but I think so.

That's how I do it.
