OK, this is embarrassing. But, I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing this or if it is just I? Maybe it's my computer.
But, whenever I type a message that is longer than the window provided, the window starts bouncing all over the place like a bucking bronco. Makes it nearly impossible to type.
Anyone else having this issue? Has been happening for about two months. Definitely makes editing an issue. Well, I will make this go on longer so it happens during this post. If it doesn't, then it seems kind of silly to send it. So far it hasn't. No, there it goes.

Yes, Bert, it happened to me just ONE DAY. Boy, was that annoying. Have you restarted your machine in that time?
I have no idea what brought it on or what resolved it.

Didn't reboot. Very annoying.

maybe reboot, delete cookie; if using a bookmark for ACUB, delete and re-create = my only ideas to undo whatever glitch might have occurred. but you've probably already thought of those.
Another such thing that happens sometimes: I type but no text is displayed until I stop typing and wait a couple of seconds. Then the whole line, errors and all, will display at once.

It's done that a few times on me in the past. No idea why and no idea what fixed it. It hasn't done it in a month or so.

It always happens to me if I write longer than the size of the window. Since I'm hardly ever on here anymore, I can't say it happens frequently.

OK, I think I have figured out the problem. I am not sure if it is completely due to IE 8.0 or if it needs an upgrade, but there seems to be no issue with Firefox.
I generally use Firefox, because A) it is a better browser, B) it spell checks on the message boards, and C) these types of issues don't happen.
Way to go Microsoft.
Of course, I haven't beta tested it much.

OK, Firefox solves it. I believe Jon added a line of code to the board which allows I.E. 8 and other I.E. versions to work properly.
But, I have still seen some other issues that I hope have taken care of themselves.
