Not sure if anyone else is having the same problems but using Firefox 3.6 on a Win 7 Ultimate PC (64-bit) The post box for when replying or creating a topic there is no cursor and you cannot click in the box above the end of the text entered to fix a spelling mistake.

I had to revert to Chrome to get it to work here :)

Cheers

Exact same issue here. I reported it to Mozilla, but got no response. 


Using Opera 10.5 now, and everything is working great. It's really fast, though slightly unstable since it is using a new Javascript engine. :)

I hope Firefox gets there act together and introduce a new modern competitive browser. (sorry Firefox fans). I use to be a Firefox fan till I tried Opera.

It is related to the RICH TEXT EDITOR, switch to the normal while Mozilla don't fix it.
I experienced that in other foruns.

Gone back to 3.5.8
can be found here if you don't have a copy.

Had a problem with IE on my work XP machine at the same time as 3.6 update. Thought it was due to an older version of java I have to run on that machine ..... it wasn't!

Sorry Ed for the PM :wacko:

Tried this with 3.6. could type but when posting the post consisted solely of the quoted text of the previous post even though I'd removed the quoted text?!

This is a known issue with Firefox 3.6 only : http://www.insanelym...howtopic=207171 . I'm not sure on the status of the fix. I've updated the issue in the tracker for review :wacko:.
