  I’m using a firefox 2.0.0.8 browser and today the word “edit” is displaying but when I click it the comment does not open. Instead I’m hurled back to the main index of the forums.

  Now I’m verifying that using IE7 does not even produce an “edit” word to click.

  I wasn’t involved in the discussion, but my understanding is the ability to edit has been removed because it was abused, and people didn’t tend to use it for its purpose of correcting a typo.

  Thanks for the reply. Would you please remove the “modlook” tag from this thread?
