PM issues

Post by ghmerrill »

has anyone noticed that when you send a long pm- one that goes farther down than the space in the screen shows, that as you type, the screen jumps from where you are typing, back to the top of the page with each keystroke? is this an issue that just I have, or is it that I am the only one who sends PMs that practicaly qualify for binding and printing :oops: ???

That happens to me when I post here as well as in PMs.

This happens for me using IE 8, but NOT when I'm using Opera. (I use Opera most of the time.)

Or just type up your posts/PM on word pad or MS Word, and when you are done just copy/paste. :mrgreen:

thanks mike! if I would have thought of that, I could have doubled or trippled the size of the PM I sent to Brad last night! (loud groan from brad in background...)

The next update of the forum software is at Release Canidate 2 stage and the list of fixes is longer than I can keep track of so hopefuly that will fix the problem.
