when searching for targets on the search page its quite a bore to have to click on one id then haxxor him then go to search again and keep doing this.

So...is there a chance of maybe clicking the id next to a name on the search page which then puts the id in a box at the bottom of the page so i can add 4 more ids then click haxxor on that page as well?
if you dont get it ill try explaining WITH PICS :) if i can be bothered

What d'ya think?

To copy 5 IDs at once:
Hold ctrl and click each ID to select all at once (up to 5)
copy
paste into intelligence page text box
add a comma between each ID
hack

NB: i use firefox and this works for me. I usually just (hold ctrl) click the first ID drag down another 4 to highlight all of them. Im sure this works for IE as well. I know when selecting a column in IE you can paste it as a column into excel or word, whereas FF just copies everything as one line, which is no good for Excel

btw dont you use tabs? Just have an intelligence page in another tab and then you could c+p between the two tabs...

I middle click (open tab) over IDs, so it takes me to the hotlinked page, open like 25 (ish) tabs, then ctrl + tab my way through them clicking over the 'hack' button so you have a bunch of them open all at once. Either way, just my solution to the problem, tabs ftw!

Yeah i do basically the same as Alci...

Or just use the little search box in firefox (top right one) to note down all the IDs i think look the best...if you just write in that but dont click search then it stays there whatever page you go to.

Personally I go for timtadams' approach. Keeping the search page in one tab and the intel page in another and just flick through.
