Editing A thread

I CAN NOT cut and paste from a Micro Sh! t “Word” type script or document to your
web site without having major problems. The =/=dwn/fon= Type stuff.

I can cut and paste from MS, Netscape, FoxFire, or whatever to any web board in
the world, but not MCO.

Please look into this Mark. I’m only putting up with it – I’m not liking it!!!

Thank you

The reason you are seeing this issue is that NAM, unlike many other vBulletin-based sites, does not allow FONT, SIZE, and other tags. We configured it this way to deliver a consistent font size and style across all the posts on the site.

Sometime ago we posted about this and how to work around it since we know that many people use spell checking in Word prior to posting. To post using Word:

1) Compose your message in Word
2) Copy and paste your message from Word to Note Pad (this strips out all the font/size tags that Word includes)
3) Copy and paste from Note Pad into NAM

Hope this helps!

Mark
