Bug when typing longer posts
I find that if I type a longer reply (or new) post, as I get towards the bottom of it, the text keeps flicking up teh screen. What I'm typing is in the right place, but I can't actually see what it is that I'm typing unless I scroll down the internal scrolling box. But then as soon as I type the next letter, it goes out of view again.
Anyone else get this?
This happpened on IE 7 and IE 8 on different systems. XP and Vista. Haven't tried the other internet browsers....Bodsys Brake Bible

Glad it's not just me then!
I've ended up having to use wordpad to type everything in on occasion and then cut n paste it into the post!Bodsys Brake Bible

I think Martin recommended that a while ago as people were losing their posts between typing and previewing. I did that once and though borrocks, wont be doing that again!D4 HSE Luxury SDV6,

I haven't let it get to me but it's happening here too. Thought it was something wrong with Firefox but tried IE8 and found the same. Real PITA but it stops you from writing long replies which may be a good thing....... The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

I can understand losing posts if your connection times out, but this is just srange.....
Not had it here - May be I don't write posts that long. how many lines before it appears - or disappears ?
Running vista and firefox.
