Smiley function not functioning

Seems to be only in the "Forum" tab page

from WinCustomize Forums
T-MAN,

Sorry, I posted this in the "forums.stardock.com" thread which I realized was incorrect after reading "AndrewBigStuff's" comments.

This thread is regarding "WinCustomize.com" forums.

For the past week, I have not been able to use the smiley button to successfully assign a smiley in comments.

I can access the list when clicking on the button, but clicking a smiley results in a slight drop of the whole page (sort of like hitting "Enter" button at the bottom of a text box) - but no smiley symbol appears.

I can assign a smiley by typing the symbols.

Running IE6 (6.0.2900.2180_xpsp_sp2) on XP Pro w/SP2 and all MS security updates.

Note - this happens only in the "Forums" page, not on the Home or Articles pages. I have not attempted to add smiley's under any other tab.

Sorry for the misunderstanding of posting in wrong thread.

This smiley is posted using the keyboard symbols:

I just wanted to add, after you click the smileys, and the page jumps, the smileys are then inserted in the Upper Left Corner of the page, right above the WinCustomize Image.

Nice catch. I saw the page jump but never noticed that.

Copy that!

Good eye.

Note - I can't do anything with it though (no cut, no delete).

the only way i've got it to work is by changing the options in SmileyExtra to copy the smiley to the clip board, double click the smiley, then pressing Ctrl-V in this text box

not ideal, but it works



sorry Bichur, thought you could have been using that pesky invisible smiley, like this one......







**edit** and that didn't work either

T-Man (or another WC site coder),

This post is showing up in my personal page "Articles" list. http://corkyo.wincustomize.com/

Is this new behavior, or a glitch in the matrix?

Corky...that link looks fine....what's the 'glitch'?....
Reply #22 from WinCustomize Forums Top
I'm guessing he's referring to a 'forum post' showing as an 'article'.

Jafo,

As Bichur indicated, I have never seen one of my forum posts (in this case it is a "General/Site Issues") show up as an article.

All other articles are the mini tutorials I did.

Not a big deal, but a little out of place (as well as being the first to show as an article).

For those of you who were having problems with the smilies, can you please check out if they are working now for you?

Using FF version 1.5.0.4...using the smiley function on the comments box still does not work. However, the screen no longer jumps, and the smileys are nowhere on the page


If your asking about SmileyXtra...then Yes it works...
