Cannot type a post when I switch to HTML editor ??

I'm doing something wrong. when I turn On the HTML editor in my Profile it allows me to type in the Subject box but NOT in the Message Box. How to fix? Craigb93

It seems to only really like Internet explorer. I assume you are not using IE?

I use Firefox with a Mac. When I do a post, I have the same problem: I can enter the subject but can't enter any text in the message box. So I hit "Preview" and of course the msg comes up empty when it's previewed. Then I hit "back to edit mode" and then can enter stuff fairly normally. I say "fairly" because I can't do any paragraph formatting. --- So I just separate text with dashes instead of paragraphs. Works for me..... I've tinkered with HTML on and off, to no avail. But it's a great forum and I can't get too excited about what my posts look like. Content is the key. ---RC

Thanks both for the replies. I do use Firefox and will continue there. The HTML editor worked for one or two posts last year then notta.
