Yes every so often I'll hurl a draft into the Preview abyss to see what happens (a bit like walking into a brick wall occasionally to see if you can walk through it - must get something done about these scars on my forehead  ;D ;D ) and lo and behold - this time something came back!!!! :o :o

Cheers

I wonder if there's a been a behind-the-scenes update that I didn't know about.  There's a few other things that weren't working in the admin section so I'll have to go and check on those.

So what's the preview do?

Bold

OK, so it shows the tags evaluated - I suppose I am so used to html and other code, that I just read the tags as the end result.

I tend to just post, and then modify any errors.

Firefox has had a few updates lately so that might be where the Preview has been given the kiss of life.

Don't you use your phone, most of the time, Will ?
It seems to have been some (a lot/most ?) PC's that lost the facility.

When I saw the title, and that FSN was the last poster I thought it was going to be about one of his more dubious pastimes!  :D
