      XP is NOT the issue because Shockwave is recognized by IE, Firefox, and Chrome but not Opera.

      Yes, certain websites still use Shockwave. When I test it at Adobe's website, it states that it cannot load the plug-in.

      1. How do I access 'Drafts' that I have saved?

      2. If I click on the 'Quotation' icon by mistake, how can I 'cancel' it so that the message is not display? I had to put a dot in body because it would not allow blank text to be cancelled.

        Can someone please help me?

        Specs:

        Windows XP Opera 29.0.1795.60

        Originally, Shockwave and Flash were only listed as NPAPI so I installed Flash PPAPI (There is no PPAPI for Shockwave).

        Now, Shockwave is still 'not' recognized when tested at Adobe's website using Opera and Flash 'is' recognized when tested at Adobe's website using Opera but not recognized on websites that require the Flash plug-in 9I fill out music surveys with audoio clips that require Flash).

        I went back to Adobe's website using Opera and Flash is still recognized.

        Shockwave and Flash are being recognized by IE, Firefox, and Chrome but not Opera.

        Any ideas?

          Additional Comment:

          Adobe Flash Player Version 17.0.r0 and Adobe Shockwave Player Version 12.1.8.158 are listed and 'Enabled' in the Plug-In list.

            The Shockwave and Flash Plug-In issue has been resolved-How do I 'mark this thread as answered?'

            1. If I click 'Save Draft' while composing a post, How do I access it again?

            2. If I click on the 'Quotation' link by mistake, how can I 'cancel' the post so that the message is not displayed? I had to put a dot in the message because it would not allow blank text to be cancelled.

              Just select the text and delete the unwanted part before clicking on "post comment".

                Leocg:

                I will be clearer in what I am asking:

                1. If I click on the 'Quotation' link by mistake and do not want to post/reply to a thread, how can I 'cancel' it? It would not allow me to cancel a blank message box so I had to put a dot in the message box and post it.

                2. How do I access 'Saved Drafts?'

                3. How do I 'mark this thread as answered?'

                  Why do you have to post if you don't want to do it?

                  How do I 'mark this thread as answered?'

                  You don't. But i will do it.

                    I will be crystal-clear!

                    1. If I intended to click 'Reply' but clicked 'Quote' instead, how do I 'cancel' it without entering text?

                    2. How do I access a 'Saved Draft?'

                    Threads are 'Marked As Answered' by moderators-Fair enough.

                      Don't know.

                      If I intended to click 'Reply' but clicked 'Quote' instead, how do I 'cancel' it without entering text?

                      There is no "reply" so you can't click on it instead of "quote".

                      If you click on "quote" button by mistake and don't want to reply to the topic you can just do one of the following:

                      • Select the text and delete it;
                      • Click on the back button to return to the list of topics;
                      • Scroll to the top of the page and click on the gray box with the name of the forum
