could someone tell me why?
Many times, not all, but many, I will answer something on here and I get the dreaded "Your answer is too short, it must be at least 10......." I thought it was because I skip a line to start my comment. Just did one, put it in the next line and got the message is too short message - for awhile there I could barely type on this site because the words kept messing up - someone suggested I use the first A at the top and that helped and now I don't have to. What gives?

I have noticed several times that I got that message, when I HAD typed more than ten characters. It took me awhile to figure out, but it always happened after I clicked "Reply with Quote" and I finally noticed that I started my reply inside the quote and apparently it starts counting after the quote.
I am more careful now (meaning I slow down a bit...) and it hasn't happened any more.
Maybe this will help someone?

Reply to my reply.
I also use Firefox and am not having problems typing now, but did for a while. This message "Your message should be 10 characters, etc" is not the result of a short message - they are plenty long enough. It seems to me it has to do with where you start your reply. I just did one from the top - with the message I'm replying to on the bottom - I don't care for this, but this is where the cursor is when I hit reply with quote.
