Default editing posts ?

When editing posts (on any forums) if I "copy" something (a pic , link , text) whenever I try to "paste" it onto the end of a previous post it gets inserted at the top of page , or most times , randomly in the middle somewhere !

I copy , then hold screen where I want to insert , then the option pops up to paste , then it appears somewhere randomly within the origional text.

What am I doing wrong ?[IMG]I copy , then hold screen where I want to insert ,[/IMG]

Then paste into pop-up window after deleting the HTTP header auto inserted...


If I understand your problem, if not apologies in advance....

That kinda works , but if I just want to add text (maybe copied from a different site) it just randomly inserts the text wherever it wants ! I can do what you say , but rather than paste a img link into the box I just paste my text and it inserts it where I choose , but I have to delete the "[img]" bits off either end !

Click in the window where you want to paste, hit return, then paste.
