Does anyone know how to get around this?

Please post your complete SAS log using the </> button if this is a coding error. Otherwise describe what you were doing to get the errors and post a screenshot.

Despite scurrilous rumours we aren't mind readers...

Sorry, I wasn't been clear. That error message is for posting and replying messages on this website. LIke I'm trying to reply to your message now and I keep getting that error message. Took me multiple tries to succesfully send out this reply message.

@cosmid - Thanks for the clarification. I've not had any problems recently doing exactly what you are doing.

How are you "sending out this replay message"?

If you are typing into a message box and having problems then you may need to change browsers.

Can you describe what was "highlighted"? I have to assume something was.

Tried to reply earlier but due that error message was unable to.

Long story short, it said "highlighted" errors but I don't see anything highlighted. I talked to customer service and they aren't sure why. I am using Chrome on a Mac.

Is it doing it to you when replying to a message? Does it do it with Safari on your Mac.

Or does it do it when trying to start a NEW thread/topic/question? That would make more sense because for that to work their are things you need to specify, like a topic and which forum you are posting into, so it could well be wanting you to correct those but not doing a good job of highlighting what needs to be corrected. Not an uncommon problem for on-line forms in general.

It is doing that to me when I start a NEW thread/topic/question. It also does that to me when I use the Reply button. So in order for me to reply to your message, I have to use the Quick Reply. I have more questions regarding SAS that I wanted to ask in the community but unable to due to this error.

I haven't tried on other browsers yet. Hopefully it'll work.

Using Safari works. At least for now:) Thanks!
