    Problem Writing Posts (updated Sat)

    Hi its Rita Tonight when i was writing post on chat and a few other forums ive noticed that one of the bars are missing the one that says font size font family, smileys etc the only way i could get these to show was to write the message post it then go back on it then edit it and then this bar would come up, im sure its not happened before tonight and its not on every forum page i want to write on like about me , is any body else having this problem

    No problems here so I can't help, I'm afraid.  Hopefully it will fix itself before long.

    Re: Problem Writing Posts

     I remembered that this problem was quite common when the forums were upgraded earlier in the year.  One of Neil's suggested solutions then was to clear your browser cache - I've no idea if it will do the trick, but is probably worth a try.  Here is what he said to do:

    Try clearing your browser cache. In Internet Explorer 7 go to Tools > Internet Options > Under "Browsing History" select "Delete" and click "Delete Files". In Firefox go to Tools > Clear Private Data and make sure "Cache" is selected.

    Hi Rita - I was having the same problem earlier and it was driving me nuts, but I did what Penny suggested above and it worked, I'm ok again now.  Give it a go ... took a good five minutes to delete the browser files (don't delete "all" - just the files...) A xx

    Glad it worked Rita.  When you posted last night I wasn't confident enough to tell you that you wouldn't be deleting anything important!

    Yay, I just deleted my browing history and it's now working! *does happy dance*

    This had been irritating me for the last few days and I couldn't figure out how to fix it so now I'm glad it's all sorted Smile
