The photos still will not work. They come up fine when I preview the
post and then when I update, they are jumbled.

I am using the link icon (fourth from the left for the link without pic)
and the link icon (second from the right to attempt linking with a pic)

Are you using the Link button above the edit field?

I've found that simply cutting and pasting a long url causes breaks...short ones are fine.  If I use the "insert link" function it's okay, though.

Let me revise that it does this at home on Firefox.  In IE (at work) it pastes as a link.

I will look into the WYSIWYG settings for Firefox, though.

It doesn't look like the WYSIWYG editor is available under Safari.

Can any other MAC users confirm that?

I can make it work either way. Haven't had it fail yet.

All can say at the moment is that when you copy an url in make sure you get the complete url and that it doesn't have any breaks in it. I can't seem to find out how to break it using the buttons.

Cutting and pasting seem to work.

This is not a MAC only issue.

I don't have any problem if I use the insert image button and the insert url buttons.

Now pasting into this reply...

Well, I'm not on a Mac, and I've been having the same problem posting links. It seems that since the site upgrade, extra spaces are appearing in the code (both for url links and image links), even when the link has been cut and pasted in its entirety into the message field. If you go back in an edit the message to close up those spaces, it doesn't necessarily let you do that either; after several attempts, it may work, or not. It seems like somehow the message field is "forcing" those extra spaces.

I also got kicked out of my account, Jenny_RR, when I was responding to a message, and when I tried to log back in, it said my cookies weren't enabled (which they are). I still can't access the account. I know Syren had a similar problem as well.

HaHa...Amm,
Now I can't even get the original startlogic link I had live
anymore to show live without all the text showing live too. I just
edited it back again.

SAS - Have you noticed our text is now in a short block instead of
running all along the length of the page. Look! We're special!
