Link not working in editor

Adding a link using the new editor always worked. Now, the Save button does nothing. I can only cancel out. Just to be clear of the window to which I'm referring, I've included a screen shot. I reloaded the site at the bottom, but it made no difference, nor did it work in other browsers.

Did you actually select (highlight) the text that you want to open the link? That should show in the top box of the popup screen "Display Text". I had no trouble adding and saving an email link - see image below

I'm using a Mac and tried it in Opera, Chrome and Safari. The field is always blank. This screen shot is from Safari.

I've just tested on my iPad using Safari - and that works.

You seem to have all three link type options showing in your latest screen shot - probably a browser issue. I don't get that, even after opening each one individually.

What do you see in the popup when you highlight an existing link (as if you were going to change it)?

It comes up empty. I removed the link and tried to reset it, but it doesn't save. This is in Opera. I restarted my computer and reloaded the page from the server before I tried this.

Very strange - it seems as though your "select" isn't taking. Please test to see if you can copy and paste the text in the same editor window. Instead of just selecting as you would to create a link, select and copy, then paste. How are you selecting the text? Mouse or keyboard?
