    Thanks, chudder!!!!!  You have saved me lots of time. I have heard some of the members talking about it, but didn"t know how to set it up til now. You have helped a lot.

    When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knot.

    WOW!! This tabbing even works on bookmarks.  I have about 30 on bookmark that slow me down with hitting the back button, but I have cut my time in half with your help, chudder. Thanks again.

    I can't take the credit for figuring out the tabbed method, but glad I could help with explaining setting it up. It does literally cut my time at LEAST in half, if not more, because you're not fumbling around with pages and back buttons, and whatnot. You open 10-20-30 tabs at once and once you start on one, and close it, it automatically goes to the next. No mess, no muss, no fuss, it really does work and I can't imagine doing it any other way now. Good luck to you on your sweeps and hopefully we can all win some great things with this awesome site, and My Lucky List!!!! Thank you again, Mr. Sweepy and Mr. Softy! :)

     THANK YOU CHUDDER!!!!!  I just used the CTRL entry for the first time.  From all this commotions came a big time saver lesson for me.  You taught me the wonders of the control key and multiple tabs.  Somebody else had talked about it but didn't answer my question on how to do it.  But you, wow, thank you so much!   Between this and the autofill I just got onto a few weeks ago, sweeping is going so much faster.  I can do even more.  Win even more!

    Mr Softy, 

    I have noticed that you have changed the time/date for the instants etc. I feel I'm being penalized because I'm on Pacific Northwest Time. Now when I get home late, I have to hurry before 9pm or I lose my entry for the next day. I never noticed this so much before this change over. Every once in a while there would be one or two that cut off for the East Coast Time.  Hey, Not everyone is from the East Coast.lol Smile Was just wondering, if anyone else is whining or just me?Crying

    Can you help me out with this?  Thanks, Big Smile You Rock!!

    Hi PT, We have been discussing changing to a West Coast (PST) end date time.  I think we are going to make the change.  What we were thinking was to go to a absolute real time method based on your time zone and the time zone of the sweeps stated in the rules.  This would also help out ST in the long run with the sponsors.  However programming this is a real monster.

    Re: change it back please!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Since chudder turned me on to tab browsing, I can finish all my sweeps in the morning before I go to work. What am I going to do with all this free time?  I guess I will just have to find more sweeps.

    When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knot.
