That's what I did and usually do with good results, but there must be something amiss with my settings wherever. I'll check 'preferences'.

When I first saw zmjezhd I was trying to derive it from the Russian змей, 'dragon' or змея, 'snake'. But the Cyrillic probably won't make it through the board's funny letters filter. In transliteration, 'zmjej' or 'zmjeya', where the 'j' indicates a glide.

The funny, yet unintuitive, manner in which the preview renders the glyphs properly in the editing mode, but once posted, those letters become escaped HTML entities, whereas, the proper editing mode, which shows the escaped entities, does not render the glyphs, &c.

You didn't see it in my original post because I didn't have the settings right. You saw it in my quoting of myself because I did.

I'm not talking about your post; I am talking about the way the edit thingumbob works when I am editing a post.

Do the many thanks mean you want to close the subject? I was just getting there. It would be easier to call Zmjhezd ( still can't write it right without example) Dzem and take the tsk out tsuwm and call him Dzoom. What do you thinkz? I think there is something a little visually palindromic about those letters in devnagri ज़्मझेज़्द not a true palindrome but sort of hinting at it When I quote Latyshia's whole post the thing works. When I take out the inside quote it works not. Did you maybe copy and paste latyshia's part, stum? ( I'll give it a try now )
