Computer Geek Question

[Paul B]

This one may be simple as my computer is now working fine, almost. On some forums, (including this one) my "quote" thing doesn't work. I can't copy and paste a quote or even a picture. On most forums it is no problem. This is only a week old, this problem I mean. Also, on 2 forums, the words I type don't come out in a horizontal line, but vertical, one word on top of another
Kind
of
like
this.

And I have to type very S L O W or the letters will not print. As I said, it is only on some forums, not this one.
Any Ideas?

Which browser are you using? I encountered some problems recently when Internet Explorer was upgraded to version 11.

 

[Paul B]

Internet Explorer. I have to type very slow on this site or watch what happens

Hey Paul, I run both IE-10 and Chrome and use the one with least issues for a given site. As example Chrome here and still get a few glitches like 'Backspace' the first time put you back to beginning of line not one space, 'Delete' all the way to end of line. Really frustrating at times but much better than IE here which does not allow for me to choose my trademark font and text color and many more issues like you have stated above.

Cheers, Todd

I had the same problem. Running in Compatibility Mode corrected the problem for me.

If running Internet Exploder version 11, take the following steps to add this site to it's list of sites to run in compatibility mode.
1) Have the home page of this site open in your browser
2) Press the "Alt" key and the "T" key together at the same time. (This will open the browser's tool menu.)
3) Left click "Compatibility View Settings"
4) Left click "Add"
5) Left click "Close"
