    Dan I don't understand the issue. Those pics are coming up tiny so not sure what you're trying to show us with the pics either.

      Boss, I don't know why the Pics are small? Basically the problem It is starting a new line Randomly disregarding
      punctuation? Without editing the Post will appear like back of Your hand if you folded every other Finger Under!
      I hope this Crude Description helps? Dan

    Looks like the word wrap function isn't working right, either in the IPad or in the BBS software.

    Dan, if you close the message and re-open it, does it fix the word wrap, or do you have to edit it in order to fix it?

      Jim, I haven't tried to close the Message and Reopen? I will Try It! Usually it seems if I close a Post and then Reopen typically It's Gone Never to be Found Again? Thanks, Dan

    Hi Dan:

    I meant after you have posted it, not before. Just go open a different post, and then come back to the one you just did.

      jgg85234, Jim, I haven't had a chance to try what you suggested yet! For sure I am going to try it this AM!
      I appreciate the suggestion! I'll let everyone Know the Outcome. Thanks, From Fargo ND, Dan

    I know these "I don't have this problem" responses are usually no help at all ... but I probably spend 50% of my time in the Pit with my iPad (like right now) and I don't have this problem. What version of iOS are you running, Dan?

      MBMorgan, The IOS was updated a few days ago it is now V - 9.3.2? To my knowledge the ”Latest Greatest"
      AppleCrapple! For an iPad Mini! All I can add to the discussion is that this Phenominum has been acquired but
      I can't tell you precisely when! Thanks, Dan

    Yeah I'm not noticing the issue either. Is it showing up for anyone else?

      David Parrish, Dave like I've mentioned many times I am "Not the Sharpest Knife in the Drawer!" Especially when it
      Comes to this Puter Crap! My Problem may be Self Inflicted? Thanks, Dan

      Sorry, Dan. Hope you figure it out.

    It looks like the editor isn't recognizing Dan's iPad as a Mini ... in other words, it sees an iPad and assumes a 9.7" screen size as though the his iPad is a full size model vs. the Mini which has a 7.9" screen.

      MBMorgan, David Parrish, Thanks for all the time You have Spent on this Mb, I just got home from the Fat Club, and then Eunice and I had to go to the Cemetary where her folks about 30 Mi each Way! Long story short I just logged In again! This Occurs in both Coments and Posts! From Fargo ND, Dan

    Dave ( David Parrish ), I just had a look at some of Dan's previous posts, replies, and comments. His line length problem seems to be limited just to comments.

    Dan - Can you point me to one of your posts where the problem has occurred? I want to paste it into a hex editor to see where line breaks are inserted into the text.

      Mb, I just copied you and the Pit Boss two posts I just sent Unedited in any way! The first was to @Mosca,
      the second was a Post I made on HouseHomey, Memorial Day. I'm not sure if it's appropriate here

    Perhaps his browser is telling vB it's a big iPad, or a desktop. There are browsers that can be set up to do that.

      OK ... so I pasted Dan's recent problematic post (also pasted below) into a hex editor. There is a hard line break (x0d0a) everywhere I've added "[RETURN]" to the pasted text below. That should not be happening unless the [Return] key is pressed on the iPad keypad. The lines below are of different lengths (# of characters) so it's probably not anything automated.

      Bottom line, VB word wrap is working fine and those hard line breaks are almost certainly originating on the input device ... the iPad Mini.

      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Mosca,@Breadhead, Mbmorgan, Gents, Thank You for your concern about My Posting problems! I sound ignorant enough when I write without[RETURN]
      having the Sentence & Paragraph breaks all screwed up? This problem has gotten worse over time? I just can't figure out if this more is AppleCrapple[RETURN]
      or AR Site Related? I only use the iPad Mini to Post, except rare occasion when I use the Cell Phone Apple 5S. The keyboard is too small to be anything[RETURN]
      but an ornament in MHOP! I hope this helps You see what I am trying to explain?[RETURN]
      Eat Well and Prosper! From Fargo ND, Dan[RETURN]
