 * Hi,
 * I am unable to edit my WordPress gallery.
 * Previously when the cursor hovers over the gallery area in my page, the edit 
   icon will area and clicking on it bring me to the edit screen.
 * Not hovering my cursor over the gallery area in my a list of image ids appears.
   Clicking within the area the edit and delete gallery icon appears. However, clicking
   on either will have any effect.
 * Can anyone help?

 * Actually when I click on the gallery nothing happens. It is static. It only seems
   to have occurred with the new version update.
