once i have written a post to a thread....i like to 'preview' it. only because i seem to make
mistakes...go figure!
for some reason, when i click on preview....nothing happens. 
does it not work...or is it just me? |

 Shoot I just seen the preview button.... I think as your typing it is on preview mode, the other option is BBCode. Your in WYSIWYG. Jim

My preview doesn't give me a preview either, Sheri. I think Sleepy is right, you are "previewing" the post as you are typing it. For some reason this makes it less likely I will catch any mistakes I make. I have to see it as it will look posted to see any typo's and such. Even then I miss a lot, like this evening when I couldn't spell Jonathan's Aunt's name right.. her name is Cindy and I wanted to make it Cinday. I didn't even notice. It's all fair though, she can't spell his name correctly either! What's even worse is his own father misspelled his name once.. All because they didn't have a "preview" button. I'm rambling. It's late (or is it early now since it's past midnight?) and I'm so overly tired...

For the life of me, though, I cannot understand why half of the people I work with (that half would be >250 people) *have* to send their email in HTML, with crazy fonts and most of them in blue. A fair amount fewer feel the need to always include a stamp & signature image that's typically 1000x the size of the text in the email. I just want plain, boring text. My reader can handle it, and will put it in the color, font and size that I want to read. I really don't need a 2MB email from you to tell me I have a(nother) package in the mailroom. |
