I don't see any punctuation. But I do see different faces tho. Smile, frown, pointy nose, enrique englasis...

[Paula J Frazer-Campbell]

Must be a copy and paste issue - on a direct input its OK.

YES it is a paste issue.

So if you are using a paste into a forum answer watch out for it.

Is it Friday already?!?!?!?!

LOL,

[Mark Grant]

I think it's your browser.

Several times today I have tested a bit of code and then done a cut and paste with no problems. I think I must have had the odd ";" in those.

Mozilla on Linux seems OK.

Dave whatever you are smoking - STOP IT.

Pete very funny

Well, I give this one about 5 more minutes before the Gestapo yanks it.

Jeff

This is a valid test of a problem,

;^)

[Pete Randall]

To at least attempt to get back on topic (who the hell is topic, anyway?):

Where are you cutting and pasting from? There's known issues cutting from MicroSlopWord (see John Collier's comments in Dan's issues thread).


Pete

[Jeff Schussele]

WordPad as well, although I think NotePad doesn't cause the problem.
I think it boils down to RTF (Rich Text Format) being the culprit. Probably a side-effect of finally getting away from the MicroSlop crap & getting on a real OS.
Heck - I'll live with it - at least the response has been damn good & uptime is certainly a lot better.

My 2 cents,
Jeff

No trouble here in chicago

Mozilla 1.4
HP-UX 11.11

Patches so heavily the patches have patches.

The problem is from Word, I would also imagine most Wondoze apps.

Now I am aware of it I can correct it.


It is now Friday in Bangkok ---TGIF

Pete,

Thanks for remembering my posts on this subject in the past. I was beginning to think that these forums were becoming just like work and nobody was listening to me here either!

I see that Iâ m not the only one that is affected by the copy/paste issues. While that doesnâ t help to resolve the issue, it does give me a small sense of comfort.

Paula,

Iâ m sorry it is you that is seeing this challenge in your daily routine, but as long as Mickyslop is involved there always seems to be some unique challenges. Iâ m sure you agree with that, donâ t you?

Thanks to each of you for the smiles. I wasnâ t expecting the sayings in this thread. It came on a day where they were especially needed.

In case I donâ t get the chance to say this again before the holidays, I wish all of you and yours the best holidays that you can possibly have given everyoneâ s circumstances at t

Yet another issue in the copy/paste wars, huh?
