Nick,

All the whizbangs are server side so it shouldn't matter whether you are accessing via dial up, broadband or a horse and cart. The page is rendered on the server and served to the client browser. There's no java client or even javascript to my knowledge. There's nothing truly whizbang about phpbb. It does use a cascaded style sheet and browsers cache these so the initial page load is longer, and subsequent page visits (to read a message say) is quicker. My logs are still reporting 6.6 seconds load for the initial page which is pretty good.

There is an admin setting that specifies how many replies to a message is shown on one page. You can optimise that for the dial up community.

As you're not putting it with me, its up to the power and structure of your chosen host.

Anyone else on dialup and found it slower than other sites? I've forgotten the pain of dialup.

Tony
