When I write a list, and go in to quote, adding smilies, the smilie has started adding itself at the end of the post, not next to each item in the list. This can be before, or after each line. Any ideas? At the moment I am typing the code in by hand.

It's always done that, for me - whereever I have the cursor.

And whilst we're on the 'small but irritating quibbles' subjects - I went to have a fiddle faddle around with the 'search' thingy to do a mafia post-count yesterday - and it doesn't seem to work as advertised. ie, I wanted to bring up all the posts I had made with the words 'mafia rocky' in the subject line. And it wouldn't do it.

Not, I hasten to add, that I am grumpling. Just sayin'.

Didn't they always do that?
You can always cut them from the end and paste them where you want them.
At least yours work a bit, mine don't work at all.

HL I see what you are saying. They used to work, so I was thinking a tweek somewhere has broken them.

I've found that recently too. Search results are just a list of unsearched posts in decending date order.
