Problem posting to the forum

[BowberParticipant @bowber]

Hi

I'm trying to post to the home built CNC forum and keep getting a message about using the paste from word button or use a plain test editor like notepad.

However I'm typing direct into the box on the forum page!

I've tried Chrome and IE so far.

Seems to be OK for me using IE

Yes this forum seems to be fine and I managed to start a new thread so maybe it's just in the home made cnc forum?

I'll try posting again and see what happens.

Are you trying to paste a picture in your post?

Hi Neil

No I was just posting text typed in the post a reply box just as I am now.

I did manage 1 reply so I'm not sure how that worked because when I then tried to post my response with a few lines of text it just told me I needed to use the paste from word or notepad, I then tried the post from notepad and it then told me I's used more than X amount of characters and to shorten the message text!

X = a number I can't remember but it was thousands.

I then managed to edit my 1 response so that'll do. Funny as I don't seem to have a problem with any of the other threads.

Don't know if it relates, but I've noticed today on several occasions a page here being slow to load – it looks fine but the activity indicator says that it's still loading. Normally that means the page is chaining a link which is slow but I wonder whether it could also mean that the script (for editing responses) hasn't fully loaded..
