I just thought it would be a good idea for the thread title to appear in the title bar of your browser - it would make it less difficult to post in the wrong forum

but why not scroll and check? seeming as you know that the title is at the top (click drag fast) and the posting is at the bottom (click drag fast) it takes not very long, also you can check the posts or simply remember

i usually have 3 - 4 different pages open at once and i have quite often typed a reply into one thread by mistake, all i can say is that i'm glad the edit button exists

It's probably in a header file that is static, so it might not be an easy option.

It's not in the page title, I agree it would make sense, if only to allow you to bookmark the page and for it to have some meaning.

Also for looking back at your history. It's unbelieveably hard to find a topic you viewed yesterday if you can't remember where it is.
