Strange goings-on II

Einhard

So, I had a thread yesterday about problems with posting, and once I posted it, the problems seemed to disapear. But they're back. When I type a post, all the spaces are squashed together so there are no paragraphs or spaces between full stops. Makes it quite difficult to read. It's hard to edit a post because these guys are all over them-
. Also, the entire range of options above and to the left of the writing screen are unavailable- the smilies, font control, you tube and spoiler tags etc. What's going on? I am in a different country, but that would hardly matter, would it?

Different country shouldn't matter, unless it's a local browser langauge thing doing something odd. As a start clear the cache first.

Einhard

Regularly do that, but I'll try it again and see what happens.

OK, cleared my cache and then tried to multi-quote. This i what i was left with:

What unsubstantiated fears? Forestry land sold to private companies in other countries has led to recreational access being curtailed. Economists have studied the proposal in Ireland and concluded that what the Govt are proposing will cost the country money. A large list of outdoor organisations are completely against the proposal:<ul><li>Mountaineering Ireland</li><li>Birdwatch Ireland</li><li>CELT</li><li>Just Forests</li><li>Irish Mountain Running Association</li><li>Irish Orienteering Association</li><li>Irish Wildlife Trust</li><li>Irish Natural Forestry Foundation</li><li>National Association of Regional Game Councils</li><li>An Oige</li><li>An Taisce</li><li>VOICE</li><li>Zero Waste Alliance Ireland</li></ul></p>
<p>Al Jazeera reported yesterday that the move would make Ireland the only country in the developed world without a publicly owned forest.</p>

Time to ask the tech staff if they recognise what's going on here.
