Dear PH techy types : on your next site refresh can we please have a "next page" button, preferrably a tad bigger than the normal page buttons?

With my fat fingers on a touchscreen tablet, I am forever clicking the wrong page button when reading through a multi page thread.
PH is about the only forum in the known universe without this feature, and I can't be the only one who misses it.

We are currently working on a new mobile improved version of the forums. This will be an adaption of the current one we have in place currently as beta.

If you want to give the beta one a try go to "My Preferences" and select "mobile (beta)" from the skins drop down - try that and see if you like it, or what else you would want to improve on this as the design work is in progress right now.

Just been trying the mobile beta : the next / prev buttons are nice, but the font size is microscopic on my tablet (Samsung galaxy 10.1), so I am going back to the blue skin.

OK, noted... will look at that.

The beta still has far too much wasted white space, especially the topic column. Font sizes are inconsistent too. It really grates.

Yep, agreed - will be sorted as part of the improvements.

Can the next button be added to the non mobile site too?

I hate using mobile sites when looking on my phone and much prefer to use the classic site but a next button would be very nice on the classic site to remove my fat finger trouble.

FYI, I just switched to 64 bit chrome and it looks different again...
