And I can't edit my post if its one with a link in it, but I can quote a post or edit a post with a youtube link / embedded in it.

No need for thanks, but appreciate your thanks!

I just want the site to work properly for everyone. I am going to search IB's F150 forum (the only other IB forum to which I am a member) this weekend to see if these issues are apparent across different forums or distinct to TMS.

btw, don't know if this additional info is useful or not since IB claims they are aware of the problem.
But out of all my secure accounts I have one small credit union that I could not log on after W8 IE10 rolled out. Had to call them by phone. Finally after months they have a partial fix. I have to manually check 'Display all websites in compatibility view' to log on.
When I do that however, out of all my news sites, investment sites, forums, accounts; the ONLY one that has a screwed up view under 'compatibility view' is TMS. The header goes all vertical in a big red box and I have to scroll down for the actual threads.

Perhaps the bug lies in TMS not accepting 'compatibility view' for desktop users? Course I don't know if that addresses the Firefox issue.

I am on my LT and I just ran across what you are saying. I left a post with some stupid code in it. When I went back to edit the box was empty.

Update . . .

Tech was investigating and it turns out that this is a network wide issue and you guys were just the first to notice.

At this time, they believe they know what is triggering the issue. Yours was a little different from some of the others that were being reported, in that there was a problem with outside links that I couldn't replicate, however, so I made that clear to tech. Hopefully, it's the same fix, but they will keep working on it.

Thank you.

But as for their response (which is now different from blaming it on an advertiser like previously) you can tell them that we - their customers - don't appreciate being ignored for so dam long when reporting a legitimate problem that suddenly appeared - with links and examples for them to 'replicate' and research and FIX.

This has been reported repeatedly since 11.14 at least. First to Scott on MCTC, posts in numerous threads, and then finally in this thread.

So now why can't I quote these guys to make a response, when they have no links in their posts - its just their typing. The quote box comes up empty.
