							| Help please!

							| Hello, This may be a silly question but how do I send a private message to other users?
 I have tried clicking on the little envelope, and on their name and on contact me, and I either get taken to the home page, or I get a microsoft email service thing come up (it`s all in Japanese so I am not sure what it is).
 
 Thanks in advance, and sorry if I`m being silly!
 Laura

							| Hi Laura, It happens if you are using firefox.
 Some options:
 1. You can click on a blue envelope if they have written in the forum and that should open a message box for you to write in.
 2. Go to private messenger (under your avatar) and send a message option from there. You will need to know and write in their user name.
 3. The last way is to go to the persons printables page... BUT you need to go one step further or you will end up back on the main page... You need to click on any of their printables (to go to a viewing page for that printable) and THEN if you click on their blue envelope it should work.
 
 Hope that helps!

							| OK I figured it out! I was on the users profile and it kept taking me to the home page when I pressed their envelope.
 
 However, when i was looking at one of their worksheets the envelope worked and let me send a message.
 Is this a glitch or something or is it just my computer!
 
 Thanks anyway,
 Laura
