I'm hoping some kind and clued-up person will be able to help me. Just to make it more challenging, you have to do it without using any technical language! Otherwise I may not understand.
When you go to make a post, as I'm doing now, you get a nice box, such as I'm typing in now, and along the top of it is a row of little symbols (plus smilies to the right).
If you want italics or a quote box, say, you click on the relevant one and there you are.
Up until about last week I was happily doing that like everyone else, but then suddenly it stopped working. Now, I click on the quote or italics symbol, but nothing happens.
Please can anyone tell me:
does this just sound like a malfunction of this ol' red imac (inherited, ancient) or....I don't know. could it be anything to do with the site itself? I have also experienced difficulties with NOT receiving private messages which I know have been sent.
(Yesterday the penny finally dropped that I can still get the quotes/italics by typing QUOTE in [], but of course that only works for the signs I actually know)
Thanks!
