come again? Hmm

Tee2072 · 03/01/2013 06:18

Excuse me?

Hi, Shift-6 either side of words, so hello without the spaces becomes hello

Is that what you're having problems with?

lougle · 03/01/2013 09:00

are you using a phone? my Samsung galaxy note puts a space after the first so I end up with italics^

I have to remember to delete the space if I want italics

OpenToPersuasion · 03/01/2013 11:30

On a Samsung galaxy note, using ppera.

The things are there when I type, but have disappeared when message becomes active, iyswim?

Don't think the number keys have dymbols on them.

Just have to swap to numeric keyboard - the symbols sure looks like the normal italicky chap.

It's your own fault for using opera Wink try dolphin, it's much better.

IceTheChristmasKateMumsnet · 03/01/2013 16:27

Wot lougle said, have you made sure there are no spaces?

ChaosTrulyReigns · 03/01/2013 18:25

hmm..

withouy

ChaosTrulyReigns · 03/01/2013 18:26

see?

UPright!

ChaosTrulyReigns · 03/01/2013 18:26

I wanted slantology...

lougle · 03/01/2013 18:47

That is slantology Confused

Your withouy is slanty.

I wonder if opera is taking away the italics?

Startail · 03/01/2013 18:52

Kindles put spaces after punctuation, it's very annoying stupid kindle
Instead of stupid Kindle
Took 3 tries yesterday.

lougle · 03/01/2013 18:57

Chaos, because I love you, I downloaded Opera on my Galaxy Note. It's Opera. It takes away all the italics on MN.

Download Dolphin Browser, and you'll see that they all show up.

Tee2072 · 03/01/2013 19:17

Yes, darling, I must concur with the others. It is slanty.

When is your contract up? Hmm

lougle · 03/01/2013 20:46

tee, it isn't the phone, I promise. It's the browser. If chaos uses dolphin, she'll get the slanty back.

Tee2072 · 03/01/2013 20:53

Well, there you go then, lougle. Grin

Still...she needs a new phone. Grin

NewYearNewNagoo · 03/01/2013 20:58

FYI the correct term is hats.

In your case, fucking hats ^^ that aren't working.

ChaosTrulyReigns · 03/01/2013 22:06

Tee2072 · 04/01/2013 07:20

You got a tablet? Hark at you. [wunk]

I loves my Kindle Fire, BTW. I am leaving my husband for it any day now...

NetworkGuy · 05/01/2013 08:21

Thanks lougle for mentionong Dolphin - have just installed it on my tablet, as Firefox Beta seems to keep crashing (no error message, just desktop reappears, guess I'm too short on space...)

lougle · 05/01/2013 09:05

It is truly fab, networkguy - it has lots of plug-ins too, so you can get some brilliant functionality from it.
