Title: Posting conundrums
Post by: Lareth on February 02, 2008, 01:04:51 pm

I've been trying to post the start of a character journal, which I wrote in MS Word and copy over into the post, but each time I try, the post gets cut off part way through.  Anyideas why this keeps happening?  I'm thinking I should copy it over and write it all out again, or maybe try it using a different web browser (something other than IE).. but I'm open to any suggestions.

It's the apostrophes or other special characters that trip up the forum. You can cut and paste to notepad, and then cut and paste again to the forum, or you can just use a word processor that doesn't use directional apostrophes, or just type it up in the forum, or some other ways I'm sure. (Personally, I just type things up as an e-mail, and then cut and paste).
