Hi, thanks for reporting this. I can reproduce the problem on Chrome and will log a bug for it. It should be possible just to delete the tag with the onscreen keyboard delete button but this isn't working.

There is a work around but its not great. If you press and hold on the tag until the popup menu shows you can "Select All" and this will highlight the tag too so you can then delete it using delete on the onscreen keyboard. It will delete the rest of the post too obviously and it doesn't seem to be possible to change the selected text.

Thanks again.

I thought this was just a feature of TSR but got really annoyed so put in a report to see if it was normal.Thanks.:ta:
