x_Tech’s description, above, tells you exactly what’s happening….but in case it’s too technical….
As he said, when you click “Reply”, the reply window shows you the first few words of the comment to which you’re responding.
However…. if that comment begins with a picture, the characters that it “grabs” to display are the first part of the image link instead of any words.
It doesn’t go far enough to include the ending of the URL. Bingo! It gives you only part of a link to an image, so you see that broken picture icon.
Meanwhile, in the background, your browser doesn’t like broken links…it looks for the next set of quotation marks to try to finish off the URL…
So it wrongly grabs part of the code that was supposed to make the SUBMIT button work….and ruins THAT too.
Clicking on “Submit” then does nothing…. and you can’t post.
