It's amazing how we went from talking about fixing blogit problems to consumption back to fixing problems on blogit. That's why i love the comments section! You never know what conversations you'll run into here.

I hope Blogit can help you soon, Julia., and pray that doesn't happen to

me, lol, because I have no clue.

Julia., we're leaving the light on in your comments sectino till you get

back! What other euphemisms were there for TB, Ariel? I never heard of "tisiccky" Is it something that possibly Chekhov or Jane Austen probably suffered from?

Blanche

When I was a kid, just before the last TRex popped its clogs, a persistent cough was called a " tissicky cough" On the old Bills of Mortality ( the parish records of deaths ) one can see that many people died of tissick.Try Googling Bills Of Mortality. It's fascinating!

Yep computers, like Mother, are the invention of necessity.

Ariel, the word "consumption" sounds so much more romantic than

garden-variety tuberculosis, lol. Wasting away, over a candle, there's a life. Still, I shudder at the thought that this happen to me. I love computers when they work, hate them when they don't., and cannot imagine myself without one.

Bel et al in here

Yep, I'm havin' problemas tambien. When I open the add comment window, I have to reset the font size every time. Got a different font from normal too.

God, I hate computers!!! Should never have changed from a quill pen, a guttering candle and a draughty attic. All the best poets worked like that, you know, and had ...

those and a consumptive cough,

that, in good time, carried them off,

often leaving no-one grieving,

or giving a damn about their leaving.

So it wasn't my computer

I was having that trouble yesterday and part of this morning. PLUS for over a week I have the seriously HUGE font for comments, I had to change the font everytime I commented. Glad to know it's blogit this time and not me.

I'm sure this is Blogit's problem. My font changed on me the other

day also. They must be playing around with production.

I couldn't post emoticons yesterday morning

or choose text style/size. I informed Blogit and a few hours later, problems were corrected. Hope yours will be fixed soon Julia.

privacy and security settings.... it's a long shot, but make sure

they're set to low (in privacy) and that nothing has been blocked (in security).

blackcat--the text box shows up but the cursor won't go into it...

posted by Julia. on October 7, 2006 at 8:48 AM | link to this | reply

check your browser settings. Does it let you type in the other box

or does it just not show up?

Hi, Julial, I think Ariel had this problem, but I'm not sure what he did

about it. I guess you're going to have to email Blogit, unless someone has other ideas.
