We had a technical problem, the database crashed... I did a repair on it and everything should be fine now.. also the board should be running faster and loading better. Sorry for any inconvenience.

I didn't think it was a hacker, because there was no big, red message.

Thanks, Pauli. :friends3:

I usually think it is just me. I did wonder yesterday a couple of times. And ended up with two of the same name posted.
All of you guys, headed up by Chief Princess Pauli, do such a wonderful job!

Hi y'all. When I post then refresh to go back to where I was, it takes me to diff places. Not all the time. Maybe 50%. Is it something I'm doing? It's been happening since I started HFTM. Really didn't bug me much until the Caylee case. I've never had this prob on CTV. I use Windows XP and Internet Explorer ver 6.0.29 etc. I think it's me, just asking if others are having this problem. I'm just probably not exp enuf with HFTM.

Audie, I use FireFox- much easier than IE to deal with.

Try this to clear your cache- cookies

# Launch the Internet Explorer applications
# Go to the Tools Menu
# Select Internet Options
# Click on the button to Delete Cookies
# Close Internet Explorer & Restart

When I refresh a page on IE. I right click on a spot on the page and left click refresh.

Hope this helps.

If this doesn't help, Pauli may be of more assistance.

You can't upload to your albums from photobucket...

You have to save them to your pc and then upload them from there.

If you want to put a pix in a post use the [img] code

I'm no help, although I do have the same as you with Windows. After I post, I don't refresh. I just click the back arrow. (I think). When you do something so often it is automatic. I will check when I post this to be sure. Will pm you if different.

I just realized I was trying to answer a question from page 1. But now I am confused. The only time I ever used the refresh button is if when searching for something and my page doesn't come up. I am going to have to experiment with refresh button in other places. Y'all are so smart here! I learn so much, if I just didn't have the days I forget everything. (I was told that chemo brain (fog) could last for 10 years, so that is what I am using for excuse until my 10 years are up. Got 7 to go)

If this doesn't help, Pauli may be of more assistance.Thanks for responding. I do clear my cookies, files and history about once a week or more. I'll try the right click left click thing and try to figure out when i clear the cookies what happens then, etc. What do I have to do to get Firefox? Go to their website and then download?

Okay now I have another question to post. See below.

I've PMd to people a few times by clicking on their nic. Not hard. How do you PM to multiple people? Click on one, then add more nics?

I'm investigating and I'll report if I figure it out.

To pm several people put a (;) between the names.

Like this:

Faith; Audie; and so on

Why don't you download FireFox? sooo much easier to deal with then IE.

Here is the link if you want to try it.

Click "preview" to make sure it shows up before you hit save. That way maybe you can see the problem.

I did and it showed up the way I wanted on the preview. So then I clicked save and it does not show up when I post.

When sending pm to more than one, I click the BCC under the box, for blind copies. You can send up to 5 private messages at a time.

I hope this is the right place to ask this...

When posting is there a way to use both the bold and color at the same time, if so how? Thanks

Pauli

just highlight what you want then click on bold and then click on color while it's still highlighted.
