I'm still seeing the issue in 7.9x. One of my administrators has forced line wrap issues.

Thanks for the reply Borg

This won't effect non-Mac users in a negative way will it?

According to my book on HTML with wrap set to virtual the browser sendsthe text to the server as one line, whereas with other methods thebrowser can place line breaks each time the line wraps in the HTML textarea.]]> Thu, 05 Aug 2004 05:04:50 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/issues-with-mac-users-and-formatting_topic10110_post63195.html#63195 <![CDATA[Issues with Mac Users and Formatting : -boRg- wrote:To prevent the...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/issues-with-mac-users-and-formatting_topic10110_post63185.html#63185 Author: LNSEMSF

I don't have a MAC to test this so if you could let me know if it works.

Borg,

Thanks yet again for your help. Everything is working fine now and my MAC friend is thrilled beyond belief. Is there some detriment from changing the wrap from physical to virtual, because I'm curious why this is not the standard way. Again thanks for your fast and accurate help!

Thanks boRg!

That worked perfectly! I've instructed all my MAC users to do this and the ones that have posted can finally stop posting in annoying half screen columns... Thanks again! This is perfect!

Awesome software! Keep up the great work!

MAC usesrs unless they are using Mozilla will use a standard text box area not the WYSIWYG Editor.

Maybe suggest to them to switch to Mozilla if they want to have theWYSIWYG features such as seeing the emoticons and not theforum BB code.

I have just upgraded to the Access 2000 version 7.9 and I have a mac user having the same problem.

My site is site for musicians and as such, I have several users that use Macintosh computers.

The issue that they're having is that when they enter text into the editors, WYSIWYG or standard, their boxes seem to interput the line end of the editor dialog as a line break. This results in all their posts being exactly the width of the editor box.

There are also issues with emoticons where it won't display the picture just the code.

If anyone has seen this or has a clue, PLEASE let me know as soon as possible.

I'm using WWF 7.7a, SQL 2000 backend...

Thanks!
