Seems that as I type it is just one line that scrolls right forever. If I insert a hard return it shows up poorly in the posted message. Obviously I have not read the right instructions.

Sounds like your browser (not that I'm an expert), mine works well. ZD, any ideas?

Excuse my ignorance, but I am not sure what the question is. The size of the window that you are typing in (like I am right now) is set for a width of 400. When a character hits the 400 px mark, it automatically returns but doesn't show up that way in the posted message.
CP, are you typing your messages in MS Word, Notepad, or WinWord, and then cutting and pasting them into your message window? I have done that with the jokes that I have posted and have gotten some strange results.
If you could be a bit more specific, I will gladly look into your problem.

ZD, I type in the appropriate message block. Unlike my newsgroup reader that automatically moves you to the next line at some set point, this is not happening with my current web browser. I think I will try it with a newer version to see if that solves the problem
I am now in Internet Explorer and it looks better. Just need to type a few more words.....there it goes.
It was a browser issue. No need to further address this. Sigh, all my bookmarks are in an old version.

That doesn't make any sense to me why it would keep going and going. If you are typing in the message window...does it start scrolling or do the words disappear off your screen?

Ah, the dreaded Netscape...have you updated your Netscape to Mozilla yet? Maybe that is what you should do if you plan to continue using Netscape, else use Explorer.
