I did come up with something. Not really a request to change anything per se, but I notice that when I (or others for that matter) post an original thread in the forums, a bunch of code is inserted within the text of the post that makes it hard to read the post. After the first post I made, I noticed it so now I always go back and "edit" and clear all of the stuff out. This only happens on an original post however and I've never had it happen if I'm replying to someone else's post. I do type my posts as a Word document and then cut and paste it so that I get the benefit of spell check and such. Is that causing me to have the issue or is there something that can be switched "off" in the forums to prevent it from happening?

When composing in word or when copying from another source - copy and paste into notebook, then copy and paste from notebook onto the forum, this will remove the html code. Not sure why this works, but it does. This tip was discovered and given by Philfree and can be found here on the forum under: Frequently asked questions - Did u know and Before you post...

RE: Site Tips
Phil.
lol, Phil...you caught me! Went back to check forum postings to find out exactly where it was and edit in the answer. Completely forgot about computer club! Jen
That's ok Jen, I'm used to it, everyone always forgetts about me :(
Phil.
as i read the post by nuderunr, i instantly thought about the computer club and was ready to help out. then i scroll down and Jen and Phil are already on top of it with a couple of posts.
you two get to wake up way too early before me!
I don't seem to be able to add anything into LOCATIONS. I know some great places in Croatia, Sicily - even Australia! And I'd like to see what others have to say about places I go: Switzerland, Southern Germany (Bodensee), France - other than all the obvious resort places... Have I missed omething about how to add and/or view this part o the site?
If I were in charge and had the know-how to do so, I would add a regularFAQsection to the main site.I would alsoadd asearch feature to the forum. If both of those features existed and if members were Internet savvy enough to use them, it could cut down on the considerable repetition in the forum.
