Posting in Color and Bold

Since practically the beginning of A2K, I have been posting in green, and bold. It is my signature.

Anyhow, when I finish my post, I highlight it, and then click "green", and "B". I never had any trouble with it, until recently. For the last few weeks or so, I find that when I do the same thing that I had always done, something strange happens. The post comes out in green, but the bold doesn't. At the start of the post, I see the {B}
but the {/B} does not happen, so that the post is in green, but not bold. I then have to edit, and manually put in the {/B}

If it happened once, I would suspect that I might have messed something up, but it is happening more often than not. Anyone know why?


For those who are wondering, I did not use the correct brackets [ ] in my explanation. If I had, it would have messed up the whole post.

I used to be able to simply highlight whatever I wanted in bold or italics and then hit the appropriate button.

That doesn't work any more.

I don't understand what the problem is, the method does not appear to have been changed in any way.

This is a test of the A2K broadcast system.

What exactly do you do? And I mean exactly. Let's try to figure out what's going on here.

Yep, that should always work. Is it possible that you (Phoenix) clicked "Disable BBCode in this post" before hitting submit?

Phoenix, did you switch browsers? Sometimes it acts up in Firefox, but should work ok in IE.
