That would be cool, and you could just change the #header and related icons for the effect. But I dont know if it would actually be possable to program.

Please add a "Only Submit Once" notice to the "Post Comment" button, to decrease the number of double/triple/... postings. Because there seems to be a high number of "impatient persons" on MozillaZine, and it's a bit annoying. :P

could there be a time limit b/t possible posts, like there is in the forums?

edit: wow, the forum clocks are off - it's messing with my head!

Yes, this is very much needed! Maybe wheedam could add it to his web page.

BTW, time is off by an hour over here at Eastern Time Zone.

What a needlessly complicated way to do that. Much simpler to do it in the forum PHP. (I don't think the Apache method could base it on the user's timezone, anyway, whereas the forum could.)

Even better than an "only post once" notice would be one of those hacks that makes it impossible to double post, either by merging the two together or disregarding the second one entirely. Or maybe comparing the text in the two posts, and if they're the same, disregard the second one, but otherwise merging. I can't remember if I saw one specifically for phpBB, though it doesn't seem that difficult.
