CherryB Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I have no idea what what I want is really called so I have been unable to do a search and apologise for the title of this thread. Basically what I would like to be able to do is hover the cursor over a post and see a little bit of the text come up for a while so I can see if I want to actually click on it. I can do this on other forums but despite looking everywhere I can think of on the site I seem unable to facilitate this. Is there a way I am overlooking?

andyh4 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Look at Theiere's reply to you. It happens to me too from time to time and no reason I can fathom out why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinabee Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Try clicking on the "torn paper" icon near the website address - that sometimes fixes it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
