Saving Posting Draft.
Stilldrillin:
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:

Scott,
Thank you for the tips! :thumbup:
Most of that is lost on me, I am not of the computer generation, and it`s uphill sometimes...... ::)
I will have to make a note, for next time..... :scratch:
David.

Just tried your method Scott.
The screen turned grey & it just sat there sulking, untill I rebooted. :scratch:
Shorter postings from now on...... ::)

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.
