Jenny, I see your post didn't "post".
Edit: See posts below. It did finally post.

It is because you composed it in Word or something similar, and it uses curly quotes, bullets, ellipsis, etc. -- any characters that you cannot produce on your standard keyboard will cause it to not appear.

Another poster fixed it by pasting all the text into a Notepad window, changing the font to Courier (not Courier New), and fixing all the characters that show up as little odd rectangles. They are easy to spot. (I later find that this trick does NOT flag curly apostrophe).

...looking for that thread...
here it is.

Edit: Tollermom discovered: Changing the "Markup" setting (just below the posing window) to "using HTML and UBBCode" will cause the text to display. ...only you can't go back and edit it--the edit window is blank.

Finally: If you just post the text, I can issue a command that will fix all the bad characters. But you have to wait until I see it.
