Cannot edit my posts

[Lou Sander]

When I click the Edit icon in an attempt to edit, I do not get an edit screen. I get the reply screen. I've tried it several times over the past few hours, always with the same results.

Hi Lou, normally what happens when you click Edit is that a script runs and rearranges the viewing area with an edit box (without leaving the page). Have you by any chance disabled JavaScript in your browser?

[Lou Sander]

Not that I know of. A script DOES run, and I DO get an edit box, but there's nothing there about editing my post. I kind of expect to see my post in that box, so I can make the needed edits right there.

Give us a screen shot of the editing pane?

[Lou Sander]

I clicked Edit on my post above, and got what you see in the attached screen shot.

To send with the attachment, I had to switch from Quick Reply (or whatever it is) to this full reply screen.

[Lou Sander]

It looks like the attachment didn't go through (but I'm not familiar with sending attachments here). Maybe I can just email it to you. Let me know.

This is a edit of my reply up above, is your like this?

[Lou Sander]

Yes, it is more or less like that.

What is missing is a copy of what is to be edited. In most systems I'm familiar with, that would appear already in the edit window.

But mere mortals wouldn't see the check box at the bottom...
