Missing Tool Bar.

Is anyone else experiencing trouble posting links, quotes, photos, etc.? I seem to be missing the tool bar/box in my answer box. This is happening with all 3 of my computers which use different browsers.

I had this happen to me with my Firefox. I had to reset my permission for scripts on SD. - LaloLoco, Oct 1, 2011

Me too. I couldn't put a picture in my word of the day window. - SusanaEspana, Oct 1, 2011
Thanks everyone, I got enough input to know it isn't just me having this problem. - Yeser007, Oct 1, 2011

Gary you have a slow connection wink

This only happens when the connection is too slow, if you want to test that, open your skype and look at the connection if it's yellow or red it means that it's slow, if it's green then perhaps only a glitch.

There may be other things afoot, Lovely. - Jeremias, Oct 1, 2011
I agree with Jeremias... "only" should be replaced with "occasionally"... ;-) - cristalino, Oct 2, 2011

Update:

It still isn't working on my computer with Internet Explorer but the ones with Firefox are OK now. Very strange. I think I'll just write it of to sunspotssmile, Thanks for your input everyone I will now close this post.

I changed my mind, I got a message from Pesta telling me he has 2 toolbars, let's see how far this is going.

Here's my observation:

I've seen a Double toolbar, a few times. And all the buttons in the double row worked! I wouldn't have believed it except that it has happened more than twice in the last few weeks. I use Firefox, and my connection is normal DSL speeds.

Has anyone seen double toolbars? I mean, without first having a few drinks? tongue wink

It's happening to me with Firefox, but it is very intermittent.

Yes, I had this problem yesterday at my Dad's house. I had to put in the answer first without any picture and after I could add a picture or link. It seems better now on my home computer. I hope that it's just a glitch. Hope that helps, Yesero.

Yesterday I was unable to add comments in either Firefox or IE. Today it's fine. The connection was the same yesterday as today. Bug yesterday, gone today.

It can also happen if you have scripts blocked. I had this happen to me with my Firefox. I had to reset my permission for scripts on SD

Yesero I too am experiencing this issue for 2 days in a row now... does anyone know of the cause or if it is being addressed presently? You really get spoiled with all the features on here and once they are yanked, it is like the days of "dial-up"... jeje

I had a firefox update yesterday that I didn't ask for and that fixed some things. Strange things are happening. Sometimes I have to add the picture after with an edit. And there is always the smileys if you can get them to work. At least we can post text.

Today I have a toolbar!
