Glad it worked!

I haven't tried using tinyMCE in forever, but I remember it not posting my stuff the way I wanted it to.  It might have just been the fact that it posts extra spaces between paragraphs; that drives me nuts.

I thought I was so stupid for not being able to figure it out. The odd thing is it used to work for me then all of a sudden it starting screwing up my spacing and crap. But it's all good now, thank goodness there are so many nice people on AC who are willing to help. :) I always come here when I have crappy days and it's like a freaking family. I just have to read a story or one of these boards and I smile.

Aww!  I feel the same way about this board.  I'd be lost without it!

Glad you got it working!

Copy and paste still doesn't work for me.  I use word, but have tried typing in microsoft works too, but still no luck.  And that tinyMCE hasn't worked for me since the AC blackout :(

So I'm saving my document as a .html file and adding the document rather than copy and paste.  That works for me and keeps all the formatting.  Just means I have to have my chapters as singele files rather than all in the same file.  But that's no big deal.

When it went down I seriously cried. My mom thought something seriously bad had happened like someone had died. Although in a way, it was just as bad. I freaked when I thought about all my favorite stories not being there anymore. I cried again when it came back up, I love this place.  :bighug:

Glad it's working now!

Heh, I remember my moment of frustration and how freaked out I was when I noticed the black out. Until I saw the message that it would come back. This place is my sanctuary! Also 'cause it helps me improve my way of writing and my English!  ;D

But there are times (like these) I don't visit AC or this board that much, simply 'cause I have to focus more while reading an English story, 'cause it's not my native language. If I focus too much, I get headaches, so that's why.  :-[ (well, that's also because I have concentration problems) These days I just have a tiny break. Although I started reading a bit more lately 'cause I need a lot to catch up on. I reaaaaally have to admit that atm I'm only reading the Coaster Series by evergreenwrite r (forgot the number that's usually in the nickname and forgot your real name lol) 'cause of the reason I mentioned above. I think I have at least 4 or 5 other stories that I haven't read in ages. I feel bad 'cause I'm abandoning them while the stories are so good! But planning to start reading the others real soon. :)
