This could be my Hudl (old)
I tried to reply to Ivan on the DELTA thread with my text, one link and a paste from a paper. When I tried to paste the curser failed to flash and when I typed no characters appeared. I had to come out go in again (didn't work) log out then finally paste. This has happened before and wanted to see if anyone else has this. I probably need a better device. Thanks.

It could be the case that the editor was in the wrong mode. There are three states that look very similar: preview ON/OFF, toggle BB code ON/OFF. However, only one of them allows a mark and insert link operation (I think it is preview=OFF, BB code=OFF). And if you switch from one mode to another, it loses track of what has been marked.
