OK I am having some trouble with the forum from work. I am using Win2K. I recently had to reinstall the OS and have been having trouble ever since. I can't do any of the following:
- use anything with a drop down menu
- use the smilies or any of the options like clicking the bold icon or inserting images
- use the multi quote option
- my formatting is always messed up (whcih is why this looks as it does.
Also, when I respond to a message I see formatting that I am not used to seeing before like paragraph HTML markers.
Anyone know what I need to do to fox it? It happens on more than just this forum.

I had this problem from time to time a while back. I haven't the faintest idea how it sorted itself out though, sorry! :o

What browser are you using? I use Firefox and that's what it went funny in. I'm not sure if I.E. was better or not.

Ooops. I guess that is rather important. IE6, SP1. No Firefox at work.

Check your Javascript settings; they need to be turned on for all that to work . . .

Any particular ones? They all seem to be checked so I still don't know what's wrong.

Also, cleared your browser's cache recently?

If you can you should check firewall logs for photography-on-the.net or 75.126.234.18 if there is something that blocks JS.
If you can, try Firefox once - if that works then the reason is in IE browser settings.

Where is this done in IE6? I still can't view the forum correctly and its getting a little old.

Never mind. I am just going to install FF. Seems to work fine with FF. In fact here is a smiley to prove it. :rolleyes::p
