whats the deal with.....?

I guess this goes out to the AW staff, its just a little something thats been getting on my nerves. Sometimes when I post something, actually pretty much ALL the time when I post, it doesnt allow me to time any apostrophes, I hope I spelled that right, and things of that nature, it seems they are replaces with funny little squares or a (and) symbol.

What is the reason for this, it seems funny to think it doesnt support simple grammar rules? Does it have something to do with my computer?

Its just annoying since after all my posts I need to go through and get rid of all those it's doesnt's and I'm or esle I get that!

So is it just me? or do other people have this problem.

Go figure the first time I post about it and try to get those little squares to show and it works.. its nuts& But I know it will happen again!

Oh ohhh, no little funny squares but see it replaced my explanation mark after (nuts) with an (and) symbol... Hmm maybe its because my browser is firefox?

I use Firefox and have not had this problem, Candace.

Well I dont get it, why does it happen to me all the time then lol,

AW there has to be an explanation for this?

I am guessing you had used typeface(fonts) that AW does not have.. so it replaced it with the squares.. It happened to me few times when I used copy and paste... I just go back and edit and that seems to correct the problems.

Hmm maybe? I usually paste my posts into Microsoft word to catch little spelling mistakes, maybe thats whats going on?
