I've just take Eloise's advice and changed to compatibility view and it seems to have done the trick.

Oh, that's helpful.

Do you also add a note to letters asking the addressee to contact you at once if they don't receive the letter?

Re: Problem with posting

I use them all, but only because I'm a web designer :nerd: and need to see what sites look like on different browsers. I would never use Internet Explorer for anything other than testing sites, otherwise mostly Safari and Firefox. In my experience, LB works well in all of them, on different computers (Macs & PCs) as well as iGadgets. :nerd: Although I sometimes have problems inserting smileys on Safari for mobile devices (iPad/iPhone), end up having to type the code. :typing:

Why does no-one ever mention Opera browser ?

It's the DBs
