Just-In-Time Spell Checker
Hi All, I'm brand new to this list and so, please excuse me if I start asking questions which you have discussed before. First one up is why does the Just-In-Time spell checker only work if I use the Plain Text (MicroEd) message editor? If I use another editor, e.g. the Plain Text (Windows) option, the option for 'Automatic Checking Ctrl+F4' is no longer available. Any ideas why this is so? -- Best regards, John Cunnane -- Using 2.10.03 on Windows 2000 SP4 -- Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
HTML Links
Hi All, Another couple of problems which you may have discussed on the list before but I would be grateful for any advice. 1. If I click on an html link in the message preview window, it simply goes to the top of the message. If I click on the link a second time, then it opens my browser (IE6) as normal. Not a big problem but why is this? 2. If I reply to a message which contains a html link and quote the original text, then all instances of the '&' character (without the quotes) in the original link get replaced by the space character in the new message. Obviously, the link no longer works in the new message. This is a much bigger problem for me and so, any ideas why this happens and is there any way that I can stop it? -- Best regards, John Cunnane -- Using 2.10.03 on Windows 2000 SP4 -- Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

In my 2.04.03 both function correctly. Does anyone else see these problems in v2.10.03? -- Regards John Using The Bat! v2.10.03 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4 Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re[2]: HTML Links
Hi All, I believe that we can agree with my first point that clicking on a HTML link in the preview pane takes you to the top of the message on the first click and then opens the browser on the second. I assume that this is a bug and not a feature? As for the '&' characters in a HTML link when Reply is used, I would be grateful if you could reply to this message and check the following link in the quoted text. If the bug is present, the '&' characters in the link will be replaced by spaces and the link will no longer work. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=41559&item=4190830767&rd=1 -- Best regards John Using The Bat! v2.10.03 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4 Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re[2]: HTML Links
Hi Robin, raoca> This didn't occur, but because you didn't send your message as HTML. I raoca> have experienced it often, that a message written in HTML and containing raoca> the & character (coded as & in the HTML) loses this in the reply. In raoca> general TB! is not good at quoting text that was in HTML in the original. Thanks for pointing this out. This is exactly my problem. Replying to a HTML mail with the MicroEd editor makes the & character disappear from any HTML link.

Re[2]: link wrapping
TF> No, TB doesn't do that. I know that other email clients break URLs TF> when displaying and cause problems, but not TB. That's one of the TF> beauties of TB. If the original mail was sent in HTML format and you reply in a plain text format such as MicroEd, then The Bat! seems to have a big problem with certain characters in a URL, e.g. the & character which it replaces with a space character. Hence, if you use MicroEd to reply to a HTML mail, you may well find that the link is 'broken' and it wraps round because it now contains spaces. -- Regards John Cunnane Using The Bat! v2.10.03 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4 Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Collapse All Threads - How?
Hi All, Can someone explain to me how to collapse all threads in a message list. I know that Shift+Ctrl+* expands all threads but what's the reverse? -- Regards John Cunnane Using The Bat! v2.10.03 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4 Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re[2]: Collapse All Threads - How?
Hi Peter, PM> That's odd. Your shortcut works for collapsing all threads here. For PM> expanding it is +... Don't know why it went weird. My keyboard response became very strange and a re-boot has fixed it. All works fine now and the shortcuts work as you say.
