I use this field to post lab hours for various semesters, holidays, etc.
For some reason the input window has a small scroll bar and shows itself as having what amounts to be a ton of "code" or characters or something, when in actuality the announcement is done in simple HTML and shouldn't require a scroll bar at all. When I click in the field to edit the announcements, I get an hourglass and the entire program hangs with Internet Explorer giving a (Not Responding) message.
Please help.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Does the announcement show up correctly when someone logs in? Also, if I understand correctly, you can get to the page which allows you to edit but IE hangs when you actually click the box? Can you try opening in a different browser (Mozilla Firefox is awesome - try it)?

Don't know if you've solved this yet but you should try viewing from a different browser. Also if you view the contents of a recent backup file (Utilities/Restore/Review Contents) and post the announcements.html file here (or send to me at jshaver at users.sourceforge.net) I'll see if anything looks odd that might cause this problem (e.g. forms?!?)

Yes the announcement posts correctly; however now I want to remove it and when I click in the box IE hangs.

Problem solved. I opened the announcements.html file on the host machine, and then cleared it in notepead. That fixed the problem. Thanks.
