914World.com _ 914World Garage _ OT/ finger trouble trying to edit my signature

Posted by: Mark Henry Jul 5 2017, 07:35 AM

I'm trying to edit my signature in my controls, every time I click on the edit box it puts me back into the garage, last page I was on I think.

I know I must have done something wrong, coding error, but I can't figure out what. WTF.gif confused24.gif
Any ideas??

Thanks beerchug.gif

It directs to the link I have in-bedded in my signature, do I have it written wrong?

*a href="http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=312581">(b)(size=3) Parts in Canada, beat the brokerage fees(/size)(/b)

The first code symbol is a < not the * and the last symbol is a ] not the }
and it is in brackets not parenthesis.

It works fine, I just can't edit my signature in "my controls" because it also works in the "edit signature" box every time I click the cursor in.

I don't know what I did but I think I fixed it. confused24.gif

Weird, updating mine works just fine and mine is a bit more complex than yours:

I think you are missing the closing a tag ...

Added closing tag, no change still doing it, I can only edit by writing my edit somewhere else then C&P into the edit box.
I can highlight an area and hit paste. I have to highlight, right click, paste.
When highlighting if I try to click to stick the highlight it goes to my "Parts in Canada" link.

The few times I did manage to get the cursor into the edit box it was backspacing and typing in backwards???

Everything else in the site seems to be working correctly. Editing a thread works correct, just tried in this thread.

Some other program is interfering with your input.

Restart your computer and go straight to 914world without running anything else and see if that works.

Will do Thanks

Restarted, virus scan, ccleaner... still doing it. sad.gif

I've also tried chrome and firefox, same issue.

Oh well... I managed to change it, I'll worry about this later...much later.
