O.P. Suggestion with "Forum Jump"

See my nice MS Paint edited screenshot?

The small problem is when using the Forum Jump, while selecting the section you want to go to, you click on it, and it goes to it without you having to press "Go". I wanted to know if that would be changed. With more people having laptops (me included) and the small touch-pad, sometimes the wrong section is selected, and then we have to wait for the page to load and then try again. :/

Its not really a Big thing, but its just alittle annoying.

Thanks

EDIT: Also can the Latest Posts page be added to the Forum Jump list?

I see were your getting at, but what about the majority of us who do not have laptops, that like it auto-loading? It would be a win-lose situation, and I hate losing

Yeah, that's what I always thought, although I didn't put it there.

It's a good reason.

Meh, kinda offtopic but I'm too lazy to make a new topic and it relates to the Latest Posts page.

Is there anyway to get a "Mark all forums/posts read" onto the latest posts page? I know there's already a lot of links on there but it'd be really nice

Ever since I read this, I was wondering what the the reason for that go button to be there. I had forgotten the reason why its there. Today I got it :wink:

Take this scenario:
Suppose you are reading a thread in GCC. After reading it, incase you want to Jump back to GCC..Press 'Go' button
