Hi Fret...!

Re: The Smilies.

Inserting them anywhere in the text after it is completed works fine when using Internet Explorer as a browser/text editor, it's using Firefox as a text editor that creates the problem... ...!
There is something strange/different about the HTML code in Firefox.
It doesn't seem to be fully compatible with the YaBB HTML code used for the Simviation Forum.
So it's probably a good idea to use Firefox as a general browser, and IE as a very good text editor for the Forums... ... ...!
...I think this is what Hagar does... ...!

WOWZERS...!
Ta, Rotty....!
That proves that it's not me that's going mad... ...LOL...!
It's only recently that I've been using Mozilla Firefox as a Browser/Text editor.
Previous to that I always used Internet Explorer, (IE), as my Browser/Text editor, and the editor always worked fine with the SimV (YaBB) Forum... 8)... ...!
IE allows complete control over editing the page, smilies/text styles/insertions, etc... ...!
So....
I have both Firefox and IE browser Icons on my desktop, and it looks as tho' if I want to use a good text editor for the Forums, I select Internet Explorer, and use Mozilla Firefox for general browsing the Internet.... 8)...!
Firefox is excellent for avoiding all those annoying pop-ups, adware, etc... 8)...!

Cheers all...!

No rotty, Firefox will download Launchy.

I am telling you boys, Launchy is what you want. With Firefox browser open and you run into any problem with a site...say HERE for example  , you just hit your Launchy Icon, select "Open in IE" and VIOLA....you have a second browser open and it's.........you guessed it.............Internet Explorer. Do what you need to do in IE and when done close the IE browser and the Firefox browser is still there and refreshes itself.

I love the the little program as before I did what you did Fozzer, hit the IE icon on my desktop but this is a work around compared to the ease  of Launchy.



Dang.........just flipped back to page one and saw your request for a different test Fozzer. Sry, back at the firehall today, but will try it tom. when I get home..............now that I understand what it is you are trying to do.

rottydaddy, if I remember right......you have to add the Launchy shortcut icon to your Firefox toolbar. Look for the "Customize" section in tools or for the toolbar. There you should see the NEW Launchy icon. Just add it to your toolbar.

Been awhile as I have had it for quite awhile now, but I am pretty sure that when I downloaded I thought the same thing.....Where is it!!!?

Ok Fozzer, here's YOUR test you wanted.  . Now that smiley was entered as I was typing.

Next one will be added here..... when I am done with this block of text. If I understand you correctly ( yes I am slow sometimes ) I won't be able to do it........the smiley will just appear here....

Ok, wasn't able to insert it like you said.

Now this is being typed in the IE page opened up through Launchy...........Firefox browser is still up.
Now am going to insert smiley here..    and it should work just fine. Text over...now trying to insert smile above.

Worked fine there. So it is a Firefox issue.

LOL,...............I don't think I proved you weren't going MAD.
Matter of fact,..........GOING is not the word I would use.
GONE is more like it. 

And proving that, ...well....no need, WE ALL know the answer to that.

LMAO
