Where's The Go Button?

What happened to the GO button below the post box? Mine disappeared.

I made a slight modification. Before, there was a "Hop To" drop-down menu at the bottom of the page, which could easily go unnoticed if you didn't scroll all the way to the bottom of the page. With that system, you needed to select a forum from the drop-down, then click the "Go" button - two mouse clicks. Now, if you will look at the top of a forum (list of topics) or at the top of a post your are reading, you will notice a new drop-down menu has been added called "Hop To". It works basically the same way, but as soon as you select a forum from the drop down and release your mouse button, you will "hop" to the selected forum. No need to also click a "go" button.
 
Cool! Thanks Basil!
 
Darn, another thing to unlearn then learn.
 
I found out that you have to go back to the top of the page to hit the "HOP TO" button and rather than going through the drop down menu, I just go to the forum list or active topics. I think it's faster.
 
Still going to the bottom before I go to the top. Old dog and new tricks...

If you guys prefer it the old way I can change it back

Or....put the new button on the bottom of the screen?

I preferred the old style...but we're all resistant to change.

With the current software I only have two options: Top as a pull-down, or on the bottom.
 
I like it! The "hop to" makes it easy to navigate. I also realize that there are multiple ways to get there and everyone has their own preference. Thanks for "tweaking" the site.
 
Personally I never use the go button. I have my mouse programmed with a back button. Might be a few more clicks, but I know after I post, 4 thumb clicks gets me back to the main forum page.
