Problems with PPRuNe and iOS 8.3
I am having problems creating posts on the non-mobile PPRuNe site using iOS 8.3 on my iPad.
If I click on one of the icons at the top of the Post New Thread window, Safari crashes. Has anyone else seen this behaviour?

No, but I have problems replying to posts sometimes, 'specially trying to copy and paste then highlight and use the Quote button. I know what to do but the iPad won't always humour me, no problem with a laptop, even using Windows H'eight.
For a long time now I've said - I blame Bill Gates - for all my computer irritations, guess I'll have to say Steve Jobs now !
Life was simpler before computers, we didn't have to worry about these things, just went off to the Pub !

Have iOS 8.3 on my iPad mini. No issues, other than buttons on PPRuNE site are too small for my fat fingers. That is nothing new, and probably will never change ...
Whenever I have any issues I do a precautionary shut down and restart. Almost always solves the problem.

I just tried to post a pic from my iPad running iOS 8.3 and Chrome. It didn't crash, but it did give me an error message that this forum doesn't exist.
It was also very slow responding to keypresses.
Try again...

We'll work on the posting issue. Meanwhile, if you want to post an image you may try posting it to a free hosting service like Photobucket; they provide the BB code link you can just copy and paste into a PP post.
