Oh, you know what? I think I tried automatic paragraph after closing the italics. Maybe that was my problem.

[okimhere]

I hear an echo. Oh, it's me! I'm all alone. *sigh*

[habs4ever]

Yes, it's an echo chamber...I hear the wind whistle inside my brain all the time ;-)

[okimhere]

I feel SO much better, knowing I'm not the only one.....;^)

Right after I posted, my dang machine froze up...hate when that happens...

Pinging Mr. Westy for links to Html tricks...I am a dunce, need immediate attention and help...

[okimhere]

I was just now reading JohnRob's thread but I don't see any more new shortcuts or tricks. Have you tried anything beyond the norm? I guess for posting articles, it's quicker or something. Hmmm?

[okimhere]

Well, drat! I was typing the www.htmlprimer.com for the lessons and instructions. But when I tried to show you how you could say 10°, it comes out just that way instead of 10*. This new format doesn't read html, I guess. I'm going into another room now and scream and swear!

Sorry your computer froze. That is so maddening!

[habs4ever]

Naw, I'm going to be all vanilla for the time being ;-)I'll just stick to calling the pink panti-less Palo a maroon ;-)LOL....

Westy, damn! The html won't work now - did you see my post to AMom above? Now what do we do? Or HOW, I should say, do we get * and cents and..........

[okimhere]

I've revised the magical auto-detection routine. It will now leave your reply alone if you use anything resembling HTML.

That's what JohnRob says on his thread. What does it mean?

[westmex]

More important...How do you get FR to work without a big hassle? 73° here now...

Drat..froze up again...most of the time, my computer works with no problems at all...then all of a sudden I will have a day, where nothing goes right...I think today is one of those days...

When my son first bought me this computer, I sure was scared of it...took me a month to actually get online, tho the son had showed me all I needed to know to get started...

Once I was online, I felt so good...but the first time a problem occured, and I could not fix it, I would have to call the son at work for advice...and I am a cryer..


So I would always be calling the son up and would be crying...always thought I had broken something on the computer, and he would be angry..he always said, Ma, its really hard to break a computer, unless you throw it out the window, or some such thing...

But the folks at the small company where he worked got used to my calling...they got to recognize my weepy voice...One time someone hollered, "Hey Andy, your mom is on the phone for you, shes crying" A rather new employee, then remarked, "You mean Andy actually has a mother?"...

Andy is a rather big lad, 6'4"-6'5", 235-240lbs, and can be rather churlish, and taciturn if slightly provoked(Tho he can also be loads of fun and good natured, and hes really laid back most of the time)

But I guess, that seeing his large size, and having to deal with his personality, some folks think he actually just appeared by magic, in his present form, rather than actually having been born from this crying weepy woman...and to imagine a 'baby Andy' is more than most folk chose to do...

when I wanted to give darksheare kissing gif
I had to do whole post in html for it to show

[okimhere]

86° ¿

How'd ya do that???

[westmex]

It appears if you use any html the posting will work like it did before. But I wouldn't count on it. What works best here now is..'Page will not Display'.....
......Westy....
