When I quote a msg in reply, nothing appears but ampersand-nbsp; - the html nonbreaking space. The same thing just happened when I posted this message, without, of course, quoting anything. I just upgraded Firefox, so that has to be the root of it. Anyone else?

The forum software is becoming incompatible with most of the browsers. FF is perhaps the least compatible. It is my favorite but I have found too many problems with it and using an old version makes it incompatible with newer web pages. 

There are problems with all of them though.

What we have now is disharmony!

Hi,´
I had the same problems with FF, now it´s
OPERA and this works OK!
Regards

I use IE9.  When I make a post it locks up.  I have to open a second session of IE9 to see my post and then use Task Manager to kill the first instance.  Also, when making a post, if IE9 zoom level is anything other than 100% the post icons all disappear (URL, Image, etc).  I only get this palaver with this forum, so it's not IE9.

  Yes, I too use FF with its latest upgrades and I see this problem all the time. But I much prefer FF over IE, so I just get used to it. But yes, you are correct, I believe it is the browser that's the issue.

Use CHROME!

Firefox has gone down the tubes. Internet Explorer still sucks. 

FF is great for development thanks to Firebug. On here, it's lame because line-breaks don't work. So whenever you see someone with a giant paragraph response, often is using FF haha.

  interesting, I downloaded a browser called "Namoroka"  which seems to be a Mozilla 64-bit browser version, and it does not have any of the problems of FF that we've noted here.    Besides the inability to pick up a Quote correctly, and the formatting issues of running together paragraphs, I had also noticed that FF wouldn't let me use any of the smileys too, in these replies. 

Namoroka seems to have made the list of those browsers that works a-okay     on all the format issues on this forum.   Just tossing that in the mix here!

  Yep, I have the problem as well, and I use FF for the most part. Can't use the "smileys' or create new paragraghs either, And EI is almost useless.....
