    Grey Shaded reply box, glitch or error?




    This is sort of been getting on my nerves the last couple of months, Quick Reply to threads would never let me type in anything because of the shaded gray area, neither did replying to quotes,(screenshots above) however whenever i would go into Advanced reply it would let me type, now it doesnt.

    Pardon my ignorance is it a setting on my PC? Web Browser? Or have i been disabled to reply to threads?

    Im currently running Windows 7 Home, Internet Explorer 8. On my 3 pcs at work im running the same set up and get the same thing. PC at home same thing.

    The forum software doesn't always get along well with IE 8. Toggling Compatibility View in IE 8 has worked for some.

    It's weird. Yes, I'm using IE8. Worked fine yesterday, then tried to edit my newest post in Page Plus today...got the accursed Grey Rectangle Of Abject Nothingness, 3 times over, never succeeded, even tried logging out and back in. Finally forced to "Reply" to my own post, instead. Then tried to post under StraightTalk, ditto...GROAN.

    This thread, though, worked (you're reading this, aren't you?). Go figure.
