box you type inside keeps jumping to the top when you are trying to type

[spider-Neil]

how do you stop the box you type inside (when making a new post of qouting someone) jumping to the top of the box when your post starts to become long? I scroll the box to the bottom but the second I try to type something it jumps back to the top again, this usually happens when a post is longer than 20-25 lines long.
its getting to the stage now where I have to type inside another programe and cut and paste it back into the 6CM box.
surely the box you type inside should continue to expand (down) with the up/down scroll bar getting longer.

What browser do you use?

 

[Avmenon]

I have the same problem, actually.

I'm using IE.

 

[Sunny]

It's a known problem with IE8. There's a workaround by clicking the compatibility view icon (looks like a broken page). I'm looking for a fix now

 

[Sunny]

Right, it's a Microsoft issue. I can't fix it - it needs MS to release a fix for it. Options are use Compatability View or use a decent browser like Chrome.

 

[spider-Neil]

cheers man :O)

 

[FoxForceFive]

Why te fuck are any of you using IE anyway?

It's shite compared to both Chrome & FireFox. Chrome is way way faster.

Hey this happens to me to!!! When I'm typing I can't see what I'm typing at all. It makes quoting a bollocks.

[/quote]You expect me to understand what any of that mean Sean? It may as well be written in fucking binary.
It's a pain in the arse. My pc doesn't do it but my toplap does.
Hates it!

hahaha. When you use Internet Explorer 8 click the Compatibility View icon:

It'll put browsing for the site into IE7 mode and problem will be gone. Should remember the setting for each site you use it for too.


Simples;


Or, if you prefer:

11101001 100101010 100001001110 11110 10111000 1001010001 0111000100

Done the compatibility thing but it doesn't seem to be working for me, not yet anyway. No biggie but I thought folks ought to know.
