I am typing in the blind. ;D

I have a real smart a-s remark but I will hold my tongue (at least as long as I can.) ;D ;D ;D

However, I run into that also.

Awww speak your mind Gus! ;D

That's an IE8 'thing'..   Not sure if there is a workaround or not - other than to compose your post in Notepad or Word or something else, then past it all in.


It use to NOT do that!

I use Firefox on Linux and have not experienced this problem.

Beside the problems you guys have posted, I have a different problem here lately too.

On a long post, I lose the stuff I am typing down in the bottom of the post page, I am

typing in the blind. ;D

Hi Sonny

That is a IE problem but if you run this website in Compatibility View you should not have the problem with long posts.

To turn Compatibility View on in IE

Go to Tools on the menu bar
Compatibility View Settings
then add Bradley Smoker to the list.

At one time I had done that and I just went and looked and it was no longer in Compatibility View.

THANKS!

I am a happy camper.
