For those recent changes addicts out there: You can now choose "Enhanced recent changes" from your user preferences. It works with Mozilla/Netscape7/IE, but not with Opera and some other browsers, and uses JavaScript. Multiple edits of a page on a single day are summed up, with a "diff" link for the total changes, and a "clickable" arrow that lists the individual edits, with links to the "old" versions and correct diffs!
Give it a try. I will certainly use it!

Thanks for implementing this, but I'm having problems with Mozilla 1.2.1; clicking the down arrow doesn't open the individual changeset (nothing happens). Earlier versions on test.wikipedia.org worked.

It's great :-) But both the unexpanded & expanded lines need to be indented a bit more -- the article names don't line up properly (mozilla 1.1)

Weird; I'm using 1.2.1, and it works. Did you enable JavaScript? (just asking;-)

Sure. It appears that it doesn't work when the "Floating left" mode of the standard skin is used. With "fixed left" or no quickbar it works.

Found it. Turned out there was a dot (.) missing in the Standard Skin code. Not as bad as the comma which caused the loss of some NASA probe, though ;-)
Fixed on test site, should work on en as well. Otherwise after the next update...

Enhanced Recent Changes seems to mess up My Watchlist in all four browsers on my Mac (OSX 10.1). Instead of (diff) and (hist), both linked, I get (cur) and (last), and (last) i s not linked. Titles are not bolded, and are only intermittently bolded in Recent Changes. Otherwise, it seems to work, Real slow, I guess, but so what? I imagine it will speed up.

PS -- Speaking of enhancements, the Move page dialog is much clearer and better than it was back when I was whining about it.
