Smiley's
 

I have lost the ability to post "Smiley's"in the message body, used to have it but dissapeared 3 days ago.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

I have been having a similar problem when on Pprune, works elsewhere but.:confused:

Well jigger me dead, its working again:ugh::ugh::ugh:

If using Windows XP and IE7, check your script settings (in IE options/security), as it is likely they have been altered following an auto-update (if applicable) to SP3.

Thanks for the advice but I still have the problem.
Did as you said with no result.
Once again, thanks

Check the "posting rules" box at the bottom left of a thread page, are smilies On?
If not check your profile

Bottom left of the main screen is a status window "Posting Rules" which lists the rules such as vB Code is On, Smilies are On, IMG Code is On, HTML Code is Off.

Then when you click reply, as I am doing, you will find a window "Additional Options"

Under Miscellaneous Options you will find:

Automatically parse links in text and
Disable Smilies in text.

make sure that the parse links is TICKED and Smilies is UNTICKED

F$^&*D if I know
 

I have tried all of the above.Thanks for the advice I think it must be my PC.

What OS and browser are you using? (Consider using another browser?)
What security programs? (Clutching at straws a bit, here.)

OS & Security

I apologise about the football

Thanks all
 

:D:DI ran Advanced windows care V2 from Cnet:} and it appears to have fixed the problem.Probably a corruption in the Registry.
Way beyond my capabilities,over 58 and self taught.:mad:

I should not be allowed near a PC unless accompanied by a teenager:confused::)

Well done.
Yep, it's a pretty good wee program, that Iobit. Just make sure you keep a backup if you fix any registry issues.AWC is one of the safer reg cleaners around, but any reg work should be backed up.
Know what you mean about needing a teen to work a PC!
