 * I’m having a problem with the Visual Rich Editor when writing a post or entry.
   At work, the Rich Editor works fine, however at home, the editor, instead of 
   showing the graphics for bold, italics etc, show words like ‘b’, ‘i’ and ‘more’,
   and instead of showing the post or page, show a strand of HTML! How can I correct
   this? Help!
 * I am using Firefox. Is this something to do with it?

 * Maybe at home the visual rich editor isn’t turned on? There are two place you
   need to check for that: in your profile under users, and under options -> writing.

 * Check your browser settings and version. And also do you have installed flash
   etc. plugins.

 * I don’t think Flash will make any difference, but make sure you’re allowing Javascript
   to run.
