Well....... I spent an hour or so last night, between 1 1/2 finger typing & photobucket. Drafting a posting...... ::) Still not sorted / ready for posting, I highlighted to save to an office document..... As I do regularly on my other forum.... I couldn`t save the bloody thing!!!!!! :bugeye: :scratch: Had to abandon all that work...... :bang: :bang: :bang: I were a bit miffed....... To say the least! ::) Is it me? Or a Forum Foible?

Not sure.. never tried to make a draft post.. but when that happens.. or it goes wierd on me.. I hit back.. and then CTRL-A, to select EVERYTHIGN IN THE POST..... then CTRL-C to copy.... open Microsoft Word, Or Notepad.. or whatever is handy.. and paste everythig there with a CTRL-V. Once things are sorted.. I can go copy and paste it back into the Forum post. CTRL-A (Selects everything in the window that is highlighted) CTRL-C (Copies everythig Selected) CTRL-V (Pastes Everythig Selected) Many know these.. many dont. You simply never know. If its new to ya.. woooo!!.. It its Not.. No harm no foul :thumbup: |

David, I do all my compiling actually on site. I sort out all the picture url's and put them into desktop notepad, putting them in the correct order plus five spaces in between. Then I just copy and paste that onto the post reply bit. Then by previewing every so often, I can see how the text and pictures are marrying up. I do a highlight and copy of everything every so often, just in case something does go wrong. So if you see me online but nothing is happening, I am busy compiling my latest load of bulls**t. John |
