rabid Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I've been having a problem replying to posts recently. I can't see the cursor and I can't seem to move it to where I want to type (below the post I'm replying to) by clicking there. It's not so bad just posting like this one since I can just start typing at the top. Seems to be working OK for greenfairy on the same laptop and the same Windows profile and it's OK for me on my laptop at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds as tho it could only be caused by some sort of conflict between your windows profile set-up on the home laptop and your forums profile but I've no idea what or where. It might be worth checking that you're using the same versions of software (browser) on each machine, and installing the version from the good machine on the other. It's also worth clearing the cache, just in case it's due to corruption there. Outside of that I've no idea, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eFestivals Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 I've had the exact same problem since I upgraded to Firefox 3.6 a few days ago. I'm using 3.6 too. I've not experienced any problems on the forums, but I did have an issue on a form on another page where it wouldn't let me select a drop-down menu. Forcing a full refresh (ctrl F5) cured that problem. So it's starting to look like it's maybe an issue with 3.6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabid Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 I've had the exact same problem since I upgraded to Firefox 3.6 a few days ago. Have to use Chrome at the moment to reply to messages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabid Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Bloody odd this. Sign in as GF and it works fine, log out and sign in as me and it doesn't. The post I'm replying to looks different. Different fonts, size and links on mine are still links but the link code on hers. Oh and the cursor keys don't work either so if I spot a typo I have to Backspace all the way to it.

rabid Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Just installed Firefox 3.6.2 update It didn't fix the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pehaw Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Definitely 3.6 problem, I'm on 3.5.8 here. Can't understand how it could be alright for GF and not for me, without even closing FF in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabid Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 You mean it doesn't work for you, you then log out of efests, leave the browser open and GF logs on and it works ok? So you're using the same windows user? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
