Other than the 'quote some text' function, everything seems to work. Perhaps this was disabled on purpose?

I think it's working... for me.

BB, try pasting your excerpted text into notepad, then cutting and pasting from there into the editor box.

I did as suggested. I put the quotes in Wordpad first, then cut and paste here. This happened one other time as I recall.

I tried the above using both Word and Wordpad. It did not work so I deleted the thread I started that only wound up blank. Any other suggestions.

I would try notepad. Wordpad and word both inject formatting.

Failing that, I'd try another browser.

Quote:
this is some formatted wordpad text


Quote:
this is some unformatted notepad text


They both appear to work for me with google chrome v31.0

I tried Notepad as well. There was something about including the first paragraph, even that paragraph by itself, with or without quoting, that GHT would not take. I just hope it was a quirk, not a constant problem.

The quote function is working for me as well. Like LJ, I use Chrome.

Just tried this again, in Chrome, using Notepad. It didn't work. Time to start updating Adobe, etc.

Looks like it's working for me. I use Firefox...

If a different browser doesn't work, I don't know what to suggest. I'm sure you already know to do a thorough virus and malware scan, right? Have you loaded any new programs or done any other changes to your system recently? Will quotes work if you go back to a prior setpoint?

I have switched to Firefox and all is well. Who knows what I screwed up with Chrome and it's addons?

I just received notification from a Techline employee that all forum members should now be able to connect to this web site once again. It went down almost 6 weeks ago for many of us who use Techline as our ISP but was still available to users of other providers such as Comcast. Anyhow, we should once again be seeing many more participants once the word gets out that the site is up and running again for those of us who were "left behind."

I just noted that the times of these posts are incorrect. It's now actually 5:58 PM 23 Jan here. Oh well!

Either the time clock on this puppy must be a difficult fix, or the need for a fix has a very low priority. tired

Yeah...I don't think in the whole scheme of things it really matters much...

but it's always fun to post a throwback of CTA. wink
