Chrissie,
As Floydy says it is often caused by long urls that can be a pain. TinyURL is a program that reduces very long urls to a few numbers and letters. The ’Reply’ page has a url of:
http://forum.kitz.co.uk/index.php?action=post;topic=2082.0;num_replies=3But shortened it is
http://tinyurl.com/6csw9hTo use Tiny URL is very easy once you have a shortcut link in your Links or Bookmarks toolbar.
To put the TinyURL on your toolbar open this page:
http://tinyurl.com/
Scroll down to where it says ‘Add TinyURL to your Tools bar’
Click and hold then drag the blue ‘TinyURL’ to your Links toolbar or Bookmark toolbar and drop it.
That only needs to be done once and then, you are cooking with gas.~
Whenever you want to shrink a long url to send to someone:
~
Open the web page that you want to refer to.
Click ‘TinyURL’ in toolbar.
The Tiny page will appear and the url will be displayed and the shortened version, under which it says ‘open in new window’. Right click the blue writing and select ‘Copy link location’
Go back to your post where you want to paste it and set cursor then right click and select ’paste’.

So it is:
Click ‘TinyURL’
R click ’Open in new window’
Select ’Copy link location’
R click where you want to put it
Select ‘Paste.’ dave
