The Preview doesn't work
Posted by mallagoodee on Thursday, February 18, 2010 1:45 PM

I just posted a reply to the Space Forum and the Preview function didn't give me a preview. No 'smilie' graphic, no images, just the text links to 'em.

When I did post it, the 'smilie' came up as well as the images, but I had two images the same ... which I could've caught in the Preview.

I'm using Safari on an Imac.

Thanx

Pete

The preview does not work under Internet Explorer 8 either.

It doesn't work in Firefox, Opera or Chrome, either.

It just plain doesn't work, and nobody seems to care much...

So long folks!

Hi, Megan,

Do you or any of your colleague have manage to get around taking a look at the problem yet?

I know that you guys are super busy. Just a friendly reminder.

The preview should be working. However, when previewing a post, you won't be able to see the smilies or the photos because it basically just pulls the coding. So, unfortunately, if you want to see how the images work, you have to post them and then edit the post if there's something you want to fix.

So there's an additional step? That's convenient.
