Cut and paste

Post by Ford Prefect »

Whenever I try to cut and paste text into a post, it doesn't appear in a preview.

I've tried Internet Explorer and Edge.

Any suggestions?

Works for me in Chrome. Discarded the others as either too fussy or too simplistic.

Looks like I might be trying to paste too much...

Sometimes this happens when previewing a post with a "special character" in it, e.g. £ sign.

It posts normally if not previewing it. I'm not sure why.

I did wonder if it would post, Boss. Next time, I'll give it a go.
