That pesky edit deletion glitch

Wordsmith.org

This happened spradically on the other board...now it seems to be a permanent fatal flaw. Everytime I went back to edit a post after viewing the preview the text was deleted, so I make sure to copy the text, now, so I can paste it back in. But then the mark-up has to be reinserted again!

When you make a post and hit Continue you get an Edit some more window before your preview. Don't page back, make your changes in the Edit some more window. Then click Ok, submit.

in other words, scroll down!

Yeah, like eta said.

hey Juan? maximize your window. if that doesn't work, scroll down.

Okey dokey, guys....t'anks!

Juan, who is that glowering person you have as your avatar? He looks scary.

He looks quite a lot like some guy called Eugene, but I'm not sure what the link to our Juan is.

Yep, Max...Eugene O'Neill, the other half of my boardname, The Father of the American Theatre and our greatest playwright (IMO):

Yes, he was intense, Jackie, wasn't he?

I figured it was one of 'em. "Long Day's Journey into Night"--ick; too depressing. Meaningful, maybe, but something I'd prefer to stay away from. I've been around quite enough real-life scenarios along those lines--I don't want to have it intrude into my entertainment-life also.

Or either that, or he just ate a bad egg salad sandwich, one.
