For your posting issue. First try clearing cookies and cache. If that doesn't help try disabling your extensions/addons/plugins one at a time until you find the one that conflicts. What browser and OS are you using?

Thanks for the information and suggestions. I'm running Windows 7 - 64 bit. Your thoughts remind me that I recently installed IE 10 for Windows 7 Preview. This week is "Patch Tuesday." If no update is offered, maybe I'll drop back to IE 9.

On the keyboard thing you might want to Google keyboard contact cleaning. Dust and particles can work their way in and stop a key from working. Right now, I have a keyboard on order for my laptop. It started refusing to type characters. It turned out that my left control key (CTRL) is in a hair trigger state. You can lightly brush the key and it will show up as pressed on a keyboard tester utility.

It's possible to remove the key and clean the contact to restore normal function.

Thanks, DaveP.

I suspect it is a software problem per IE 10 as suggested above. I don't recall having any difficulty other than posting through the browser. I just checked in in Notepad and the enter key works fine there. However, I could stand a new keyboard as well. About a dozen or so key cap indications are worn off.

They don't make them like they used to...
