QUOTE (the_dunner @ Feb 9 2008, 04:12 PM)  If you're on a Mac, then it's click on the Apple, and select "About this Mac" That'll pop up your OS version. (e.g. 10.4.10) If you're on windows, right-click the "My Computer" Icon and select properties. That should bring up a menu of information telling your version of Windows. (e.g. Windows 98 OSR2, Windows XP SP2, etc.) From the browser, there'll be an "About <Insert Browser Name Here>" either under the application menu (Mac) or under the help menu (Windows). e.g. Firefox 2.0.0.11 Since you're not a technophile, I'm guessing you're not on another flavor of Unix, so I won't go into those details. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Sorry about the delay in my reply! Here's my information: Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 2 Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080201 Firefox/2.0.0.12 Also, Kagetenshi is correct, the errors occur on ASCII characters when I use Quick Edit. I agree with Fortune, I do like the Quick Edit, but it is a tremendous PITA to edit ASCII characters on large posts. If it can be fixed, it would be really nice. Thanks for looking into this Dunner, let me know if there's anything more you need from me. |

Incidentally, I did not edit the last (supposedly messed up on purpose) post above. The first instance of ™ in that post should still be messed up, as that is how I left it. Maybe the problem fixes itself after reloading (or some other mysterious reason).

Any updates on this, I'm still having problems with the Quick Edit function, from various computers.

There are no updates to this forthcoming. Unicode is not currently supported under Quick Edit. To get unicode support, use Full Edit.

OK thanks much. My apologies, but I'm kind of a computer moron so a little clarification would help me going forward.
What is 'unicode'? |

Extended characters (beyond upper and lower case, numbers, standard punctuation on the keyboard) require special support. This is baked into the full editor, but not the quick editor. In order to use and retain these special characters, you will need to use the full editor.
