A while ago I could'nt copy and paste from Ancestry to this site. My oh changed my browser and it was ok for a while but now it has happened again.

I have tried refreshing both pages to both sites but still my work comes out all spread out and it is so frustrating. GGGRRRRR

Since they made the changes last week I cant either without getting big gaps...so I'm using FMP instead of most things if I have to

Location:

Brecon, St.David



License or Banns:

Comments:

Groom - Llanfrynach

I had IE and oh downloaded (or whatever) Mozilla Firefox and it was ok for a while but then it started again.

I can't really get on Familysearch either properly.

Jax thats what I get and when you are trying to help someone it takes ages to back space it all so it looks right.

Seems to be alright for me using Firefox.

It is the main reason I don't answer so much. Before I edited my copy 'n paste somebody has already found the info.

Personally I find it very hard to follow any message which has huge white line spacing. Being considerate I think of others like me.

You could always use you GR records NS...no problem there....or is there?? not tried to c&p from this site

I so like helping others but this is just a pain in the ***.

I use Mozilla Firefox, and have not had a problem C&P'ing censuses from ancestry

I have no problems whatsoever using Chrome, plus it's the safest browser according to reviews and comparisons.

Yes Sylvia it does matter which browser. I tried an Anc'y record using IE9 and it was spaced, the same record using Firefox was normal.

Thanks, Ken


so does that mean it is an IE problem or a GR problem?
