Code Name: Prevent Duplicate Threads

What the code does: When creating a new topic and clicking the 'Post Topic' button, the words in the topic title will be searched to determine if one or more of those words already exist in the title of a topic that already exists. If one or more of the search results returns actual results, the topic won't be submitted and a box will popup to link to the search results so you can determine if the topic already exists. Preview

How to use the code: Install as instructed, no editing is required.

How to install the code:

Code:
 
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://z3.ifrm.com/63/1/0/p515212/Prevent_Duplicate_Threads.js"></script>

Is there any way to make this only functional in certain forums?

Can this be modified to give the member a notice that a topic like that may exist but NOT completely prevent them from creating it? Basically just suggest that they look at topics that may be the same?

I could have sworn the "Post Topic" button allows you to proceed with making your topic anyway, just as Kankuro asked...

Yes, the notification box will appear and clicking that button on the notification box will submit the topic.

After doing some testing, I now understand what users were trying to describe. The code should now be fixed.
