IIRC, going to use.perl.org/comments.pl used to show you a list of the last ~20 comments. I found this very useful to keep up with active discussions and find out which were becoming active.
This feature (or was it?) isn't there anymore. Is there an equivalent from another URL?

Preferences -> Homepage -> Scroll down and type stuff inside the "User Space" box, at the bottom.
Oh, and you also have to tick the User Space box to make it show up.Re:Yes, I think so

My "UserSpace", created when the Comments.pl stopped working, has the following --
which I think I reverse-engineered from the search page.<p> <a href="/search.pl?tid=&query=&author=&op=comments">Comments</a>
<br> <a href="/search.pl?tid=&query=&op=journals">Entries</a>
<br> <a href="/journal.pl?op=edit">Write</a> </p>Re:Yes, I think so

Wait a minute...
Two things:
First: yours is just like mine, even with the same order...
Secondly: mine stopped working... I mean, there was something with use.perl that made my userspace be truncated and I lost the third line and couldn't put it back... does this mean the problem has now been solved? (because I was told it would be) (and yes, I'm too lazy to give it a try)Re:Yes, I think so

Dunno. The conversion to "modern" HTML whacked a lot of things, but most of them seem better now. (Still some issues with layout on narrow windows?) I've got 3 lines now, all three display and work.

There's a byte limit on the field, maybe you went over?Re:Yes, I think so
cog on 2005-10-12T09:03:26
I didn't went over, the byte limit came under:-)
You see, everything was working fine, and suddenly... part of what I had there disappeared:-)
