Question: Forum reply function not compatible with Android? Can't Post

I use a Android smartphone and had the clever thought to check TORn forums on the go. Inevitably I have also tried replying to posts on the go but it seems I can't do so on Android. I have tried both Mozilla and IE, but I encounter issues like not being able to paste anything, or do any editing. Sometimes the keyboard refuse to pop too. Is it just me or are the forums not optimised for Android? Any advice? Thanks.

I have an Adroid tablet... [In reply to] Can't Post

I have experienced no issues with the default browser. Are you using another one from the Google Play store? Try using the default. Which OS are you running BTW? I have 4.1.

Call me Rem, and remember, not all who ramble are lost...Uh...where was I?

I'm using Chrome currently, though I've also often used the stock browser to post here.

I'm running Android 4.2.2

Happiness: money matters, but less than we think and not in the way that we think. Family is important and so are friends, while envy is toxic -- and so is excessive thinking. Beaches are optional. Trust is not. Neither is gratitude. - The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weiner as summarized by Lily Fairbairn. And a bit of the Hobbit reading thrown in never hurts. - NottaSackville

Thanks Rem, got it [In reply to] Can't Post

Stock browser and Chrome works, but not mozilla or IE. Stull has drawback: the advancef editing toolbar is not showing for me. I am running 4.3.

I generally use either Chrome or the basic browser on mine [In reply to] Can't Post

I think I remember having issues when trying Firefox on my Android (or maybe I'm completely misremembering).

Thanks. Magpie. So posting in Chrome or the stock browser works on Android, but no advance editing. In other browsers, the advance editing menu bar shows but can't be used. Also, sometimes the keyboard won't even pop. At least that's my experience.

You're not, cats16 [In reply to] Can't Post

Definitely an issue. I don't fancy either Chrome or the stock browser but I'll have to live with it. Smile
