Long posts are great - (usually) they contain tons of useful information. But I sure hate scrolling around trying to find the "comment on this node" link.

Here's my solution...

Add the following to the "HTML to show in Free Nodelet" section in your User Settings:

[link://?node_id=3333;parent=`id`|Comment on `id`]

[download]

Note that there are some instances where this might not work: user's homenodes and superdocs appear to be off-limits. Otherwise... :-)

(BTW, if you haven't already, hoof it over to Nodelet Settings and add the "Free Nodelet" to your list of nodelets.)

HTH,

    nice.

    but i use my browser - i type .comm<CR> and usually there it is.

    update: uhm, i can even use ,comm<CR> - this will only search for the text in links. /me reads on opera help

      I am sure others will find your way helpful. It doesn't work in all browsers, however.

      "Find in this Page..." in Netscape 7.2 (which I use) is sometimes wonky. And being lazy, I'd rather click than type. ;-)

      Thanks for your comments!
