Every so often, when I'm composing a post, I press return for a paragraph, or put in a smiley, my post disappears off this composition thingy, and I don't know where I'm at, so I have to just post, read where I'm at, and continue with a new post. What up with that?
Also, how on Earth does one use the quote feature? I get so jealous when people quote others in those cool little boxes, I want some for myself. Thanks!:asian:
What browser are you using? Are you using your tab key to
position text? It shouldn't be happening the way you describe,
so it might take a couple posts here for us to figure this out.
I don't want to insult you, I don't know how much computer
knowledge you have, so forgive me if I insult your intelligence
here. Be aware of the scroll bar, on the right side of the text
box where you compose your post. Click and hold the bar, and
move it up and down. Maybe you're just hitting return too much
and the text is flowing to the top and has "scrolled off"?
Also .. does it happen every time, or is it a random thing?
Also, be aware AFTER you post your message, of the bottom
right corner of your post. There is an edit button, and a quote
button. By clicking the edit button, it will bring you back to the
area where you were originally composing your post, and
you can make modifications that way. You do have a time frame
in which to do this though.
The quote button that I refered to above can be clicked instead
of the "post reply" button, to reply to a post. You'll be brought
to the same text box to type your post, only the quoted text
will already be there.
I hope this helps, if not, post again, we'll work on it togehter.
