Why do I get a question mark when I type a pound sign ? It's not just me, someone else had trouble on a thread I was reading. It's happening with other symbols and letters with an accent over.

Oh dear! Techies must be tearing their hair out!!

Hello! Update on this. It's been fixed but we need to do a release so it'll show on the site. We'll be doing that this morning (so if the site is unresponsive for a minute or two that's why).
Thanks for your patience??????

I still can't access Profiles either. Are Tech still looking at that? When they are on duty that is.

Charleygirl Thu 10-Sept-15 18:01:06

Still no joy. Have they all gone home?

Charleygirl Thu 10-Sept-15 18:00:34

Let me try again with 4 pound signs. ????????

loopylou Thu 10-Sept-15 17:17:59

TriciaF Thu 10-Sept-15 17:13:05

So the dollars work but not the accented "u"s.

TriciaF Thu 10-Sept-15 17:11:37

Try a different one:
???????? $$$$
4 "u"s with accent and 4 dollars

Five pound signs equal ten question marks.
