following a link (URL) on a checked out item
- gives a error 500 - an error has occured

It needs to stay on the same page and give error message
OR
for the error 500 we need something like
"access denied - this item has been checked out by $user->username"

SUGGESTIONS:
- a url link on a checked out item perhaps needs a css class of fly so that the details are visable but not clickable
- maybe a checked out item could be "greyed out" an alternate background colour to define checked out items

Thanks in advance

Fixed I think.

If not, wich link are you talking about.
In the grid, it is fixed.

Yes in the grid
Thankyou Again

A little tip in the grid :

Will tell you if the item is checked out.

This is defined in populateState() from classes/jmodel.list.php

Thanks for the tip,
i am still working out where things are defined in the new version
and your assistance is very much appreciated
