Tried to upload an image to a page on site using Pilcrow theme. I get the "Leave the page or Stay on the page" message when I go to the image icon. If I "leave" the page, I jump to the media library.
I am not getting the usual dialog box to upload an image to a page.
I've checked my other sites. this is the only one having a problem.

Suggestions?
The blog I need help with is oklahomarwa.wordpress.com.
(1) Are you creating posts on the main page of WordPress.com at this link? http://wordpress.com/#!/post/
If so, don't do that. Create posts on your own blog's dashboard at this link instead. http://oklahomarwa.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php
(2) Are you using the secure https:// login?
http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/
(3) Exactly which browser and version of it are you using. If you aren’t sure click here to find out > http://whatsmyuseragent.com/
Note 1: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html
Note 2: If your browser version is outdated you can upgrade it here http://browsehappy.com
(4) For details about the options for uploading images see:

(5) For troubleshooting images tips see > http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/troubleshooting-images/
Prior to uploading any image into your blog, regardless if it’s a header image, a featured image, an image in a post or page, in a Post format (Gallery or Image), an image for sidebar display in an image widget or a text widget, you can optimize and re-size it in either a desktop image editing software or online image editing software to fit the space you intend to use it in. By undertaking proper image preparation first you will get the best image quality, won't be wasting your media storage space, and won't be wasting your time troubleshooting.
Thanks for your reply. I manage about 7 different WP.com blogs so I'm pretty versed in uploading images this was a new problem.
However, I think the problem was on my end.
I reset my computer to an earlier setting and the problem has resolved. May picked up a bug.
Thanks
You're welcome and best wishes.
