Hi Dave, I was trying to update the African Violet sticky link (third post with all of the various links) and for some reason, my regular formatting is not working.
I have always kept a Word document with simple HTML (bold, italic, underline etc) to copy/paste from. An example is the second post with FAQ http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/565222/
or the Gesneriad list of links here http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/565223/

Today, I added links to my document, copy/pasted them as I have been doing for over a year, but today it seems something has gone awry.
Previously I had some conversations with Terry about odd characters appearing (see the screenshot below) that seemed to randomly appear even though I had not changed the formatting.

Today it was so messed up, when I posted the info, that I just deleted it.
any idea how to get it all back? (I do have a back up copy of what I deleted)

If needed, I can re-copy the info so you can have a look, or I'll try pasting it in the next post.
