Re: That signature hyphen problem

You did it again, do not put any text after the double hyphen that separates the signature from the posting.

Use the plain text editor to see those symbols. Everything after a double hyphen becomes a part of the signature and the plain text editor shows where they sit.

Heh, heh, that's better !

Sorry to sound like a pedantic geek but that double hyphen thing catches a lot of people. The casual lurker who does not realise what has happened sees only an info-free post when people put their text down with their signature or accidentally use a string of hyphens to separate some text blocks.

Most times I have "hide signature" situation so it's hidden to me as well.
