Confusing pasting operations ..... email this discussion to a friend?

You all might have faced this problem while adding banners to our profile. While pasting the html codes in the html sortie in our mylot profile, most of the members are using the mouse clicks, both for copying the codes and pasting them in the sortie. But if we try to save them, it may not get saved for few attempts. But in some other response, I came to know that if we use the shortcut keys( "Control+V" ) option to paste the codes, its saved very easily, within one or two attempts..What is the difference between these two? Is there any technical difference between them? But I realized that the shortcut keys are working well, when compared to the mouse cliks, many times.

I use mouse clicks and IE and hit 'ENTER' before I save
and I never have any problems at all adding anything in my profile.

I don't use keyboard shortcuts as I am not aware of most of them blush

As I am using the fire fox, so far I was unaware of this..But just now I tried for that and it is not working with fire fox.Also the sorties are getting saved only if we have the better Internet connectivity. If the Internet is speed is very slow, our banners are not getting saved even if we try for many times..But if we try to use the short cut keys, the banners codes are easily able to be saved and still I am not able to understand the reason for that.It may depends on the browser also as like some other members have mentioned.Thanks for your response..

Mylot is the worst site I've ever encountered for adding banners! I tried a couple again today and gave up after 45 minutes! I have some up there but they've been there a while! As I recall it was no picnic getting them to work either! Unless you do it a lot you forget all the hoops and tricks you have to use to get them to work!thumbdown tdemex


myLot reputation of 85/100. knrsekar (495)   ranked 2,578 out of 32,281 in mylot.com  3 weeks ago

Of course.IF the Internet connectivity is not good enough, we can not save any banner within the few attempts. Also it seems it is better to use the Internet Explorer to save our banners with ease in mylot when compared to the other browsers.So far I was using only Firefox for this and Just today I checked with Internet Explorer. The banners are able to be saved within two attempts even if the Internet connectivity is poor..It seems it purely depends on the browser we are using.But a site should be compatible with all type of popular browsers so that the members don't need to install the new browser just for adding the banners.Thanks for our response.


myLot reputation of 78/100. mysdianait (11784)   ranked 2,594 out of 32,281 in mylot.com  3 weeks ago

Do you use IE Tde?

See the response below. Using IE simplifies things a lot wink

I mess about with mine every day with no probs at all.

Actually its not with the mice or the shortkeys. first thing is that, this is concerned with your browser whether you are using IE or Firefox. Usually this is happen like in my case if our browser has numbers of days storing the cache. You have to clear the history or the cache of your browser and try to refresh it. And try used IE instead of firefox if still same error or can not save your html. I know many myLotter experience it not only me or you. You can make it and it will work. Happy MyLotting


myLot reputation of 85/100. knrsekar (495)   ranked 2,578 out of 32,281 in mylot.com  3 weeks ago

Thanks for the informative response. But I used to clear all the cache,cookies,history at least thrice in a day as I am active in some of the traffic exchange sites.If we surf them, very soon, the system will start to function very slow. Because of this, I will clear then with Ccleaner, many times in a day. As saving the banner depends on the browser we are using, it may be easy to store them in Internet Explorer..Just now I tried to save a banner using Internet Explorer and it is working well than fire fox..Here after, I will do this only with IE.Thanks for your response.

Hey guys. It's an easy trick. I always using mouse click and then enter on the keyboard. Anyway the cursor must
have away from the text. And this way always successful. Happy mylotting.


myLot reputation of 85/100. knrsekar (495)   ranked 2,578 out of 32,281 in mylot.com  3 weeks ago

As I am using Firefox, the mouse clicks are not helping me too much as like the shortcut keys.If I try with the mouse clicks, then I need to repeat the pasting operation many times and some time, it will take more than 10 minuets for a banner to get saved in the profile.On the other hand, if I use the shortcut keys,I can save the banners easily, within one or two attempts, even if the Internet connectivity is slow.Thanks for your response.

While adding banners on my profile I click edit and press the arrow on my keyboard then I waiting for three second to pasting my banners. I use Firefox, I guess it was coding problem I'm exactly not sure.


myLot reputation of 85/100. knrsekar (495)   ranked 2,578 out of 32,281 in mylot.com  3 weeks ago

It seems,saving the banners in our profile depends on the browser we are using to access the mylot..Also also, on seeing the responses, the members who are using the Internet Explorer are not facing any problem while saving our banners..Only the fire fox users have to repeat the pasting and saving many times till we get our banners saved. I am using Firefox and I will use the short cut keys only to add the banners.Thanks for your response

I don't know the keyboard shortcuts but am currently learning them in my IT course.

I had problems adding HTML for some software on my profile until I was helped by Lamb.

It is best to use IE as it seems to be the browser which works best when doing anything a bit technical here.

There is a member here called Owlwings who knows all the keyboard shortcuts and other technical things so look out for him.


myLot reputation of 85/100. knrsekar (495)   ranked 2,578 out of 32,281 in mylot.com  2 weeks ago

So far I have not tried with the Internet Explorer till I start this discussion.After seeing the responses form our members, I tried once to save some banners..I was able to save them in one or two attempts without any difficulty as like I used to face with firefox..I think it all depends on the browser we are using..So far to save my banners, I had felt a lot and because of that, I have avoided some banners from my profile..Also if the Internet connectivity is poor, its taking much time to get saved..Thanks for your response.

hi I did nt even think of it. I always type the letters given. thanks for your idea


myLot reputation of 85/100. knrsekar (495)   ranked 2,578 out of 32,281 in mylot.com  2 weeks ago

Typing the exact code is much difficult and that too if we try to type the html codes of the banners,there are lot of possibilities for the typo error.I don't know how did you managed to type them..But I am not able to see any banners in your profile now..what happened to them? Please add if you have any different program.Even if you are using the Firefox as the default browser, you can use the Internet explorer to add the HTML codes in mylot profile..On hearing from the other members, I tried for that and it seems much easy to save the codes than in Firefox.Thanks for your response.

i always use the shortcuts,its easy and quick to me.u no,almost every web have some adds.
sometimes i click,but only appear some adds...that rly sucks .


myLot reputation of 85/100. knrsekar (495)   ranked 2,578 out of 32,281 in mylot.com  2 weeks ago

Though I am not familiar with the shortcut keys, I know the basic keys and I will use them when I require them. But occasionally I tried to save them with the control v ' option in the profile once..It got saved immediately..Earlier, I used to face much difficulties to save them as I was using the mouse to past the codes into the HTML sortie..It seems this also depends on the browser we are using.Its getting saved easily if we do the same with the Internet Explorer than Firefox..Thanks to our members for letting me to know the fact..Thanks for your response to this discussion.
