i am having a problem with this issue:

Only browsers that are detected as being Rich Text Enabled will have this feature available when posting.

i am running windows xp with sp2 and internet explorer version 6.0.2900 with all current updates. when i try to post or reply on a webwiz forum, i get an error message that looks like this:

AppName: iexplore.exe      AppVer: 6.0.2900.2180      ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0      Offset: 00000010

this happens every time just as the post toic or post reply box is trying to open.

from what i can see, it is obvious that my browser is not set to enable rich text. what i need to know is, how do i enable it? i am running the same setup (xp, xp2, ie6.xxxx) on my computer at work, and have NO problems.

any help would be appreciated.

I have the same browser and setup on my machine and it works fine.

The RTE features of a browser are built in and don't need to be enabled.

Try changing your security settings to a lower level and see if that helps. It could also be a plugin installed on your version of IE or pop up add blocking software that is coursing the problem.

If you still can't get it to work, then you will need to disable the use of the RTE in your forum settings, or change to a better, faster. less buggy browser like Mozilla Firebird http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/

I starting to find that most web developers and computer people are changing over to this browser for it's better performance, fetaures, and the web developer tools, like javascript debugging tool.

borg -

thanks for the suggestions. i have tried lowering my security settings, and i thought that might correct the problem, but it did not. i will try your other suggestions, and if all else fails, will give this mozilla a try. i heard good things about them.

thanks again.....
