hi,  
It would be better if u show how many pages are in th forum and allow  
users to jump to page 1 to say page 5 and links to last and first pages  
in the forum.  
Ofcourse I am able to jump to pages by changing the getvariable  
page= in the url but That is not a good way of doing it  
right? so I request u to look into that matter.
