    Ultimate BB is pretty good, but I don't like it's default icons: too XP-like and hard to decipher.
    Oops, I meant phpBB 2.0.3, though UBB is good too.

    We tried phpBB at first but there were some bugs we encountered and after two reinstallations of it we decided it would be better to use Invision Board which I find great, except for a couple bugs as well - but that should all be well in 1.1 (they are in Beta 4 waiting for Final release). UBB doesn't use PHP which would kill the server.

    It uses Perl and the posts are not stored in a mySQL database. The server that this is hosted on does not have an SCSI hard drive, but rather a 7200RPM. The amount of write data would be too much as the posts would be stored in some protected file instead of a database. The server would end up being so slow or going down every so often.

    I think that <a href="#top" onClick="scrollTo(0,0);return false;"> is a better code because you can specify where you want it to go.

    How did we get to how PHPBB would bog your server from this thread????

    Usually, when you create DHTML menus, you can create a "buffer" for javascript-behind browsers (ironically, Netscape is one of them).
