Why is that strange square on my page?
-
Displayed on my IE browser version 6.0 (not FF) at the top of the page, center is a square with an “X” inside as if there was an image to be shown.
I have not asked or made any insertions to my new blog page. So I don’t understand why that thing is there!
Yep I am a newbie!Any suggestions or commnets are welcome!
Thanks!The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The site linked to your blog is not a WordPress.com blog. Please provide a link to your wp.com blog, starting with

It seems to be set to private so we can’t take a look. Have you tried looking at it with another, more modern browser such as IE7 or IE8?
I don’t know if “not FF” means it doesn’t happen with FF or you didn’t check it with that.

Sorry about that. FF means FireFox. What steps should I take to allow you so see the blog?
-
I know what it means. What’s unclear is — did you not view it with FF or did you view your blog with FF and not see the square? Also, have you looked at it with any other version of IE? 6 is notoriously bad and is all but obsolete.
For us to see your blog, you need to go to settings>privacy and uncheck the option that makes it visible only to those you choose.

Thank you for your support ellaella!
I am seeing that box using Internet Explore 7.0 5730.13 and version 6.0.2900.
I don’t see that box using the FireFox brower under version 3.0.10 sorry I don’t have another version of this browser.I changed the privacy option to “I would like to block search engines, but allow normal visitors” I hope that works for you.

It took IE8 for me to see it – your culprit is pasting from Word. There’s a small image that somehow is in a paragraph pasted from Word.
Since you’ve only got one post, I think your best bet is to copy the text to Notepad, delete what you have in that post and paste the plain text version from Notepad.

And if you want to write in something other than the editor, I recommend Windows Live Writer. It’s free and it’s easy and it’s made for blogging:

ellaella you are so smart! As soon as I went into my dashboard edited my only post there was that box. I removed it. How did it get there? I don’t know. Oh well it’s fixed thanks to you!
Cheers!
