I'm guessing it's a FF thing. Cause I use IE and never have that problem.
Not sure though, i'm no techie. Don't mean to thread jack you, but since we're on a formating issues topic, I've got one of my own... How do you get the "originally posted by: Author" Do you guys just type that in? |

The forum software works fine with ff and Safari. You may need to conduct a house cleaning to remove leftovers from the previous Forum software. |

How do you get the "originally posted by: Author" Do you guys just type that in? Just hit the "Quote" on the bottom of the post. The quote will pop up in your reply and you can do some selective editing to make it look nice and delete redundant or irrelevant parts of the original quote. ------------------------- Wooden Boards for Iron Men |

aaargh! It should be working. Try Google Chrome???? There was a lot of discussion after the new software arrived, and I was one of the people with problems. Couldn't find a thread discussing how-to.

Previously, I used the quote button inside the reply box, then c and p to the text box.
I got it now though, thanks. Edited: 02/06/2010 at 08:45 PM by ponch |

I have the same problem when using Mozilla or Safari (mac). IE seems to work. That evil Bill Gates. |

IE on windows vista does not work anymore for me. I hit carraige return, manually add in ["p"] [/"p"]'s, nothing. Constant run on sentence. Cleared cookies and temp files a while ago.

I was answering a question by ponch. I quoted him in the post.
I really don't have an answer to any of your questions. Sorry. I use Mozilla Firefox and haven't had any problems. I may have had some when they switched over to the new site. I really can't remember now if there was a issue or what I did to solve it. That paragraph thing is annoying though. It looks like you're not the only one that has the problem. ------------------------- Wooden Boards for Iron Men |
