Well, I lost the first go around and the auto save function doesn't appear to be available when posting a new topic, but that's beside the point.  I'm not able to paste in posts it seems: [this is where I just tried to paste a web address]

 

nup!  nothing whether using a button click, control v, the paste [options!??] on the toolbar.  nada.

 

the link option on the toolbar isn't working for me either and I've tried several times without success:  see pic below entitled 'link'

 

can someone help me understand what all those options in the link dialog mean?  even adding the info, clicking ok didn't work, clicking cancel didn't work and clicking the x didn't work?  see pic below entitled 'message from webpage' and check out the wording!

 

but clicking ok didn't work either!

 

I've tried several times tonight and had to click the back button, then the forward button, refreshed to 'resend the info' and thankfully the auto save --- restore function worked.

 

can anyone help me please?  it's really frustrating!

 

thanks in advance :)

ok, I think I've just realised something else that's going on:

 

earlier tonight, I used the multiquote function but I had to use the 'more reply options' button for those quotes to show up.

 

just a few minutes ago, I quoted someone to reply but their post didn't show up at all.

hello arakasi, I've quoted your post also.

 

I will close ie then use chrome to access this forum.  I will use the same tools and report the results in this thread.  thank you very much for your interest.

ok, I've decided to use your toggle [top left hand corner reply toolbox] tom [rather than using the developer tool] and it seems I can paste to my heart's content :)

to my heart's content :)

my heart's content :)

heart's content :)
 

ok, so ie users need to wait therefore for eset forum mods to tweak their programming!

 

just a few things I need to check before I can say I'm okay with it all...

ok, so no option to link in toggle on mode --- that's ok because in toggle off mode, the link dialog is diabolical...

link dialog diabolical...

diabolical dialog...

toggle on stays 'on' 'til you turn it off I guess [or you log off and log in again]...

one last thing to try! adding quote and multiquote...

 

ok, so no option to link in toggle on mode ...

HA! adding quote and multiquote is also working :)

 

...

No problem Bella-you are welcome! B)

thank you tom for identifying this really easy workaround *5stars*

Sorry Bella, was off line to cook dinner-looks like you're figuring the toggle switch out! B)

tom, thanks for the 'friendship'; it made me smile! I tried to reciprocate [ie, 'friend' you] but I don't think that's possible on this site [i'll try again once I've posted here]

:)

 

[Message topic edited for clarity. AG]

thanks aryeh, I concentrated on my topic description but I knew I'd missed something :)

the problem wasn't 'solved' tho; posters in this thread offered workarounds!

i still haven't checked whether it's fixed for me so give me another post of time ;)
