A hackintosh pro Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hey, when I make a new topic on my Windows machines, the box that you type the first post in won't let me type anything in it. It doesn't even show the text cursor. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/207171-cannot-enter-topic-text/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donk Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Hey, when I make a new topic on my Windows machines, the box that you type the first post in won't let me type anything in it. It doesn't even show the text cursor. Firefox 3.6 on Windows definitely also shows this problem, and alos tried in safef mode to rule out extensions. Rolled back to Firefox 3.5.7 and works again. Obviously some incompatibility between Firefox 3.6 and the forum code.

Donk Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Same thing here... I tried 20 times but cannot type. I wont downgrade FF! : ) ... using Safari instead ; ) Is no one interested that FF 3.6 on Windows does not work with the forum? Come on mods and admins I posted large number of helpful posts on these boards and tried to help others, now we need some help.

an1r0n Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I agree with Donk! Insanelymac WILL lose a lot of members if no one of admins is interested in finding solution!

Poco Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I've submitted this to the tracker for fixing. No ETA but I hope it gets fixed soon . EDIT: I've just gone and checked this myself and can't reproduce it. While the line does not show up I'm still able to edit the text. Are there any other details that you can give to help reproduce the problem? iPoco Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/207171-cannot-enter-topic-text/#findComment-1401642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
an1r0n Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I'm using Firefox on 10.5.8 Leopard. I can type (sometimes) but cannot delete quote text, or what I typed. I cannot select text and delete it or select another row (after quote). Hope this helps. And yes, when I select text and press delete cursor moves tu first row! Craaazy!

XLR Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Same problem here with FF 3.6 on SL 10.6.2 , haven't tried it on Win yet. I can use the Fast Reply only, but if i want to quote someone - the cursor disappears and the text doesn't enters.

Poco Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 We think this might be the issue. For now, until we have a fix, I can only recommend resorting to your not so favorite browsers if you want to post.

Sorry for any inconvenience, iPoco Thanks for the feedback looks like there is now a patch http://community.invisionpower.com/topic/3...or-ipboard-236/. Can you give an ETA as to when you could get the patch in? In the meantime I will try with the basic editor selected in my Control panel settings. Update: Works when set to basic editor!

jdratlif Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I had to use Safari to make a new post here too. I started it in Firefox so I think I may have submitted it twice (or more). Relevant information: Snow Leopard 10.6.3 Firefox 3.6.3.

disarli Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 I thought it was some intelligence test for new forum users when making my first required post, since I couldn't even find a cursor or delete the highlighted quoted text. I'm sure it keeps the level of posting down, at least for Firefox users...

Poco Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 The updated fix from Invision has been uploaded since Firefox 3.6.3 re-broke it. It *should* now be fixed. iPoco Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/207171-cannot-enter-topic-text/#findComment-1467886 Share on other sites More sharing options...
