For the last week or so I've been experiencing issues with this website when using my Kindle Fire 10.

First thing to play up was the screen keeps jumping up when I'm trying to read the content so I'm forever having to drag it back down again.

Second, since about four days ago all functions above the dialogue box have become unusable. Bold, italics, underline etc, the whole is kind of greyed out.

On my PC everything works a treat so anyone else using a Kindle having issues lately?

Regards,

Jay ?

How strange. I will try and duplicate your issues on mine, although I have not used it for participation on the forum before, just reading books, LOL.

Not sure about using a Kindle. I have one but I've never been on the site with it.

However the functions being greyed out. You have to click on the little gear button, and they will all come back.

I use a kindle for 75-85% of the time when on the site and have had no issues.

Yeah, even being mostly blind I didn't hit any snags that could not be blamed on myself. I do know I find it much easier on the puter.

Cheers Didi, just now trying your little gear button thing.

Here goes....

WHOOPEEE....Didi I love you, will you have my babies? puffy

Odd though that I never had to do that in the past.

Now to sort out the screen from jumping up when reading or typing.

Regards,

Jay. ?

"Since the site change, it's given my phone hell."

Duane , I feel your pain.

If memory serves you use up to date I-Pad gadgets which I would imagine would be well catered for on here. It appears not!

As an aside, for some strange reason I didn't need to resort to Didi's trick of clicking on the cog wheel icon to put your quote in italics and your name in bold. Why would that be?

Most odd methinks ?

Regards

Jay.
