Anyway, I just used Alans string of test messages to test out the SUBMIT
RATINGS feature.  It did not work for me.  Here is what I did:
I pulled up the thread display
http://www.lugnet.com/off-topic/test/?n=1523&t=i&v=c
and then selected the last few messages first by clicking one of the dots,
then I rated it and then clicked the next post icon in the Light Blue band
at the top of the page.

Hmm.  There actually isn't any next-post icon in the light blue band.  Do you

post request.


Repeated the process five or six times.  Then called up the
thread display again and hit SUBMIT RATINGS.
No good.  Did not change the ratings for the messages.

If you haven't omitted any steps from the description above, that's the
correct result.


Any tips or procedural info??

Did you forget to press the "Submit Rating" button each time before walking
to the next message?  It doesn't buffer up your ratings from page to page.

When you click "Submit Ratings", that button is part of an HTML form that
applies to the radio buttons on that page display only.  What did the radio
buttons show at the time you clicked "Submit Ratings"?  (Sounds like they
were blank...?)
