well, this is weird . . . For various reasons, I've had to change the browser I use, and now I find that I can't format my Posts the way I want to nor can I copy and paste from a text editor . . .

cheers,
Robin.

Googling around suggested the problem was to do with a slow Internet connection ( I've changed to a cheaper ISP for financial reasons), and that changing browser would cure this.
So I changed to Firefox, and everything's been fine, EXCEPT, when I come to copy a message I've written in a Text Editor into the Reply box on the forum, I an unable to. The 'Copy, Cut, Paste' context menu does not appear when I right click, whereas it does in Chrome . . .
Also, when I tried to add my usual

signature, it would not let me add the Return between the two words. No matter how I parsed it, it always came out on one line,
