Thanks, I get the function, but nothing happens. I've guessing that I need to modify the code to add the root number in each child.

Take a look at the test forum:

https://www.audioasylum.com/cgi/tv.mpl?forum=test

What I need is to grab some of the source for the first topic and the changes to make it work immediately. I tried the console and it didn't do anything, but that's because the link does a perl function and isn't using the JS.

to clarify, pasting the code into console won't do anything directly. - The Killer Piglet 06:10:26 02/28/25 (2)
It will just add the new function to the browser session, you can then click the existing 'Mark as Read' Link and it will run the new code.

The current link is JS, that JS then calls a server side function.
The new function does all the work on the client side.

  I want to get back on this project. We were on a trip in March and I'm getting back into the groove. Maybe a phone call or email will be a better discussion as I do want to get this done.

    ps. realized the server is doing something to persist the change on page reload, cookie maybe?
    edit: ok, I see it seems to associate with the user log-in
    this accounts for that:
    function confirmRead(ReadForum, ReadThread) {
    if (userID) {
    if (userID != null) {
    if (confirm("Are you sure you want to mark toggle - test " + ReadThread + " as read/unread?")) {
    location = "/cgi/markread.mpl?forum="+ReadForum+"&thread="+ReadThread;
    var anchorElement = document.querySelector('a[href*="' + ReadThread + '.html"]');
    var nearestLiParent = anchorElement.parentNode.closest('li');
    toggleElement = nearestLiParent;
    toggleElement.classList.add('aa-d');
    var nextSib = nearestLiParent.nextElementSibling;
    if (anchorElement) {
    var count = 0;
    var ulChildren;
    var children = nearestLiParent.nextElementSibling.querySelectorAll('*');
    children = nextSib.querySelectorAll('li');
    for (let i = 0; i < children.length; i++) {
    var toggleElement = children[i];
    toggleElement.classList.add('aa-d');
    }
    }
    }
    } else {
    alert("You must log in to Mark Threads as read.")
    }
    } else {
    alert("You must log in to Mark Threads as read.")
    }
    }

I see the old function is till aa.js - The Killer Piglet 13:48:41 02/27/25 (0)
It also does nothing new for me when I run click, still have to refresh page
best approach is to rename that
confirmRead_oold
and paste the new code into aa.js

Hum, not sure what is running in Test, I will see if I can snag the JS

It is diff that my code though

it shows
Are you sure you want to mark thread 1251 as read?
vs
Are you sure you want to mark toggle - test 1234 as read/unread?

(I stuk 'toggle - test' in there)

I dropped the script int consoles and run as expected
