probs with attachments

[Guest]

Hello Oh wise and computer informed people.

I have recently encountered a problem when I try and click the paperclip attachment on the reply to a message. I have until now been able to click the clip and open up a window to search my docs and thus click a photo and attach it to the post, each time i now try i get a message on the lower info / tool bar saying a pop up was blocked ? I carn't get it to allow me to use this clip as before to attach photos, any one any ideas ? :censored2

If your using IE go to tools/privacy there is a button for popup blockers, add scale-models.co.uk to the list of trusted sites, if your using Firefox go to tools/options/content, same things there add to the exceptions list, see if that helps

Hello John, tried that, put the site in as you suggest even turned off the pop up blocker on windows etc and the tool bar, as soon as I try the attachment clip it comes up with a pop up window was blocked !!!!

its doin my head in, any further ideas please ...

Hi Subzero,

Try holding the cntrl key down while you click the paperclip.

This should allow overide of the pop up blocker.

Hi Subzero

Thanks to both you and AerynPK for the welcome... when I get time I will intro myself more fully.

Anyway, no problem my friend, glad it worked out for you.

BTW the same trick works when you try and open a web link.... and get the message... cannot open due to pop up settings....or words to that effect.

Hold the cntrl key down whilst clicking on the link..... most times this cures the problem and allows access to the link without having to alter any of your settings.

Best regards.
