In other news I am also ready to hunt down and hurt whoever thought up the Ruby on Rails framework. It is 93% obvious but that final 7% of bloody magic is beginning to grind me down. Sigh | :sigh:

AH! So you can.

For Chrome:
1) Right click the message, and select "Inspect Element".
2) The text of the message is in a <div>, below that is a <tr> with the class "footer desktop-only tablet-only".
3) "Reply" is the first <class> in the <td>
4) Right click the class, and select "Open link in a new tab".

This is gonna slow things down until the hamsters fix it... Laugh | :laugh:

If you can change the CSS used as with firefo you can disable it and look at the page as if it was written in plain HTML - there the buttons exist. Then you click "reply" and revert to the CSS view. Faster than source-inspecting!

You also can open console and run (after each page refresh of course) this line:

$('.tablet-only').show();

Add a calendar control to your ASP.NET web form.
It's as easy as this:

<asp:Calendar ID="Calendar1" runat="server"></asp:Calendar>
