Capitals

[Raymott]

Hello Support,

Is there anyone who can explain why the capitals and italics in my replies are reversed by the software and, more importantly, what I can do to fix it.
I have tried adding something original before I type in the quoted box; I have tried fixing the posts in preview mode, but the formatting that shows up in preview mode is not what I end up with.
I can remember that there was at least one other teacher who was complaining about this a few months ago.
It's embarrassing, since I make it a point to correct the punctuation of learners, but the software won't accept my own punctuation.

PS: It only happens when I make comments in a quoted box. I'd prefer not to have to stop doing this.

I had a similar problem about 3 hours ago, but it seems to be ok now.

It's been happening to me for months.

Could you please try posting an example in this thread? It might help if you attach before-and-after screenshots of what you intend to write and how you see it in the completed post, just so I can start understanding what might be happening.

I have to say I've not once once seen this happen in the seven years the forum's been running, so it will be an interesting challenge.

certainly. Not a problem at all! I hope it proves to be useful.

This is a test.

I've tried changing my editor setting from Enhanced WYSIWYG to Standard editor - no difference.

Support, I don't know if this helps at all, but at home I have used Chrome, Opera and Firefox on Linux and have just tried IE and Firefox with Windows XP and I couldn't reproduce it.

I can't get it, er, not to work, I'm afraid.
