Unable to see my Reply added to a Post

Right you are.  I saw your comment just now, while describing my finding.

Now, I had basically done just that; adding links after pasting stuff in the forum, and so on.  But as a precaution, I always 

then paste into a text repository of some sort, before hitting Post, cuz just in case, y'know?

Well, after the initial failure [of some unknown contaminant], all bets were off.  Cuz from then on, there was scant 'original composition' taking place in forum.

And, donchaknow, I'm ready to swear it all comes down to the italics.  All else cleanly transferred, and functioned.  In fact, I'll bet it could be reproduced.

Now, beyond that, lies the question of, "Jeesh, the forum oughta' be together enough to filter out dirty Word.app code, and wayward somehow-dirtified italics, right?"  Or, at the very least, not issue a "correct the so-called 'highlighted errors' and try again" over a problem of 'Post flooding'.  I mean, didn't you just say, "try again"?

Thanks again, for your contributions.

well, two words I figured might cause a problem with the nannybot were fine. (Although that nanny-bot blocks some terms that have pretty niche slang meanings that I'm not aware of.) 

And the example link you posted (to the forums) wouldn't cause a problem. Links to other websites, maybe, depending.

Please accept my sincere apology, pixxxelschubser.  I did not wish, in the least, to offend you.

I was making a point about 'plain text' limitations, and simply grabbed the nearest [literally] image at hand.  I regret that I didn't simply find a neutral image of some sort, instead.

I continue to find your posts helpful, in sorting this out.  I hope Silvia_CC might have an approach, and hope she's following here.

As for my content, that's worth consideration.  The text went through.  There are several links there.

I have an idea.  I shall test each non-plain-text component here, one at a time.  By the process of elimination, something should be identified as "not allowable".

No.  A full and proper solution is necessary.

It is completely inadequate to simply convey 'plain text' in this Forum.  Were that adequate, I'd have done so in the first place.

There are compelling reasons why Posts are supposed to support, and users are reliant on:

• Bullet items

1. Numbered lists

Formatted text

Web links Amebr

Inserted photos, such as .

Inserted video, etc.

My post, the one being discussed here, relies on all of the above, some mentioned in my previous reply.

If you did not discern such, it is not, at all, the failure of your abilities and skills.  It is a failure due to the inherent limitations of plain text.

I would be most appreciative if @Amebr or anyone else could investigate this matter for a productive solution.

Vielen dank.

Alrighty.

Nice to hear from you Joel!
 
Don’t worry about my feelings regarding your answer.  It’s rather what I fully expected, but had hoped to dodge with the caveat about my awareness of software evolution.  There’s no shortage of folks who echo your recommendation.  Problem is, none have been able to identify an equivalent alternative.  But all that’s a bit of an aside, summarized below.  As for the topic of this post, I know you know your stuff, Joel.  I’m all ears.

I have no need for operation via mobile and/or browser-based Adobe viewers.  And in the Web realm, I would sacrifice attachments, predictable formatting, magnification, and commenting for collaborative revision, never mind logic-managed operation of media. *
 
As for ‘rethinking my solution’, I’ve been rethinking expression by temporal media for more than 50 years.
 
Logic-managed temporal media became practical for me, with the videodisc formats of the 1970s.  I began Web development in ’94, with colleagues from Vermeer’s FrontPage.

All of the above represent hundreds of iterations of embedded multimedia support.  In the present day, nearly all the requirement seems met only by the 27-year development of each Flash, and the PDF.

Tried just now.  

Same behavior.

Buttons to Gray, browser progress bar does momentary transit.  No change to Forum page.

Yes, thanks.  [Chuckle...], I'm starting to get the hang of it.

(As for counting so-called 'nesting', you got dat right.)

Thank you for investigating.

But I remain puzzled.  The Original Post Wanting a script to Activate, then Play, an RMA on another page.

1)  So, as to counting Depths and Replies, is it not the case that, currently represented there, the count is a Depth of 1, with 4 Replies ?

2)  As to your question, am I correct in discerning that my 'replies to replies' is equal to zero ?
