I have decided to start this thread for discussing technical issues that come up rather than messing up the other threads.
I guess the first issue seems to be pasting Word text into posting boxes.
Recently we have had three threads lockup up as a result of posts involving Word text.

Thank you jsb
I could not refresh EINION as i copied the link given but typed it in and it now does not have the GE symbol but does allow for refresh just like yours :)
A very old Shropshire Lad.
Just thought I would mention that I never had a problem using copy and paste for Dyfi. Not sure why it doesn't work for some people.
ChloeB & Tiger's Osprey Data
I'm just wondering if there is a problem with GE today. It worked fine this morning, but now I have lost the Dyfi birds. LG and Rutland work fine. Anyone?
Loch Garten stats. and All the important links for LG.
moffer Yes there seems to be a problem with the Dyfi birds.
Thanks Tiger. I did change a few things there to see water outlined and photo's, and I thought that I may have mucked it up.
I had problems with GE yesterday. Couldn't get LG then but today it is fine. Today it is Dyfi's turn.
Apparently Aberystwyth University site is down and that is where the Dyfi data comes from. Hopefully it will be up and running again soon.
Does anyone have a problem with the typeface size and spacing going kerpooey on posts? I posted on the Weekly Chat for September 18 just now (at 4:43. a.m.) and both the size and spacing between the paragraphs is decidedly odd. Not the first time it's happened and apparently others have experienced the same thing.
Hi Annette, I did once have something like this happen. It was when I copied and pasted some text. I could not track down the culprit but assumed I had somehow copied a formatting instruction within the text which upset things. Perhaps aquilareen's reply might indicate the cause? I hope all is fine now :-)
Hi Badger: I copy/paste too, but have been doing exactly the same thing for about a year and only recently have run into the weirdness. No biggie. I think I saw AQ's response but will check her latest. Thanks and take care!
Annette Are you copy and pasting from Word? There have been problems with that.
