Just registered on the site and trying to place first tip but stake won't accept . Trying to enter 100 but says it needs to be figures with no characters. Through about 100 times now with no success.

Any clues?

Nope, have had numbers lock on/off etc tried pretty much everything. Could just be some sort of lock on my PC.
Thanks for the ideas anyway.

(hope the tip loses now!)

this is quite a mystery
Where are you from or more specifically what nationality of keyboard/character language are you using (not that I can see how that can effect numbers unless its chinese or arabic)

Basically the form checks that that field only has characters in this list otherwise it fails

Just a suggestion but may not necessarily be solely the form, may be the browser and how it handles the form or sometimes issues if a proxy server.

Are you using a GUI or CUI browser ?

Which one, what version and have you any add ons intalled.

If GUI do you have images disabled etc so text based only.

Try a different browser and this also may sound silly but try copying and pasting 100 in from a text based application such as notepad.

If you specify your setup and platform etc then should be easier to replicate.

Bit complicated for me there Laaayyyysss, just a silly old technophobe punter here.
Tried your idea about copy/pasting but still no joy. Disappointing but not the end of the world.

By the way Anthony, in Northern Ireland so yep, standard keyboard.

Roost,

Hi I dunno the problem could be, but I just copied and pasted the 100 from your first post into the stake box and it accepted it no problem.

Shame its a bit late for Harper Valley E/W.

Hope if you get it sorted soon and look forward to more great tips.
