Posting colors

[Ravi]

For some reason I've lost the ability to change font colors. When I click on the icon, I get a little empty square with no choices. Anyone else have this problem?

Yup, for a while now. Just click on it to insert the tags and change "black" to whatever color you want.

Click on what? The little white button? I don't get any tags inserted.

the drop-down arrow (triangle)

Or just type <[color="color you want"] colored text [/color]>

You can just do it manually, if you need to. Just type out [color="whatever"]text[/color].

Or you can highlight the text, click on the big A with the black under it, and get the tags, then change "black" to whatever color.

edit: But yeah I'm also not getting that pallet of color options when I replied. I am getting it in this edit window, though.

Sigh.

That's too much work. The drop down arrow just produces the little white box and I have no choices.

My bad, double click it.

Thanks, but for some reason that isn't working. Nothing happens when I click on it.

WAH!

Still nothing.

You can still choose black, though, and then change "black" to the color you want.

It's still a little work, though.

I don't even get the option to choose black. Maybe it's Firefox.

Oh.

Well, then, get to work! Type those tags!

Rosie the Tag-typer sez: "We can do it!"

edit: also, you may want to PM Manuel or someone about it. I would but I don't care about it

If I get desperate I'll do it in word then copy and paste.

Yeah, that's way less work than typing in the simple tags.

Holy crap!

Quote your post and see all the crap that's in there. Yeah, way less involved than the tags!

Funny, I don't see anything. It must be my Firefox popup blocker or noscript settings.

Sweet Jeebus on a pogo stick!

Yeah I couldn't remember all that, either.

But [color="magenta"]magenta[/color]? That's a little bit easier.

But yeah, the people running this place should just fix the drop-down menu. I mean that's the kind of thing we're paying them for right?
Oh, wait...

Wow, you aren't kidding. That's all just a c&p. I can't see it when I quote it myself but I could see it in your quote. It must be my browser settings...but yeah, it'd be nice if Manuel fixed it for everyone else.

I think I have to upgrade the board software for that - will do that next week.
