    sometimes when viewing a long thread, I look at a single post if I don't want to load the whole thread.
    But when I do there is no way to advance to the next post.
    Except, closing or backing out of that window and clicking the next post.

    can there be a < previous 1 2 3 4 ... next last > for posts in a thread when viewing in single post style?

    This one seems pretty doable... I don't know if we should though... might result in an extra DB query; I'd have to check. Still, "showpost" is one of the lesser accessed pages... I suspect I might be able to do previous and next... the 1 2 3 4 might be more difficult.

    Previous Next would be perfectly fine.

    or even, < > would work.
