    Default Formatting is missing

    All of the formatting buttons have disappeared. That makes it difficult to post more than a short text reply. I would post a screenshot of the page without formatting buttons, but I cannot do that without the formatting buttons.

    Note, the smileys do not post either.

    It is called being on the 'bleeding edge'. FWIW, (and I don't know if 'we' did this or not), experience has shown that one should not be the first, or near the front of the pack, to install updates. Just wait... a little... No criticism, but hard-won experience. (pretend there is an emoticon of a guy banging his head into a brick wall here.) Thanks for all your hard work.

    Yep, just hit this one. Also, the software doesn't seem to like whitespace, so separating thoughts into separate lines don't work no mo.

    Yeah it sucks,

    the layout changed, etc. They had a bunch of major changes and they were put off as 'normal' updates other than security updates.

    The reason we did it was for the security updates and now this.

    I can't post any line breaks.

    All my text ends up on the same line.

    Edit: Ok, fixed that.

    uh... the only way I can find the commands (quote, video size etc.) is by opening a new window with "edit" of a post that contained those features... and cutting/pasting...
    Anything that is printed on this page is purely fictional, and is in the context of an alternate virtual reality in a parallel universe. I, myself, am a fictional character! Any statements which appear to have a resemblance to real people or institutions or events, past, present or future, are unintentional and the result of pure coincidence.

    Proud of my tin-foil hat - this is pride of something EARNED (I'm a self-made "nut"!) - and anything I may say should be taken in this context!

    It's a good lesson for all of us.

    Don't want to get too cozy with ANYTHING these days do we???

    It's the men, woman and children who can ROLL WITH THE PUNCHES and PLAY IT BY EAR who will be moving onward and upward rather than getting caught in the traps and snares

    Don't let the AVERAGE or USUAL sway your thinking.

    THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX will ensure your evolution.

    So we are getting there, just not completed as of yet,

    Just curious how you are getting this done? Is
    there some software switches that have to be
    checked, or some programmer spending wee
    hours getting the bits and bytes to work?
