Long Posts - Screen constantly moves

[Rogue_Hunter]

This frustrates the hell out of me ... :2guns:

It actually deters me from writing long posts. When typing in a post, you will get to a point on the form that it will jump around the page making it almost impossible to continue posting.

It happens both on IE and FireFox, havent tried Chrome .. might do when i get home.

Any idea why this is happening and if its known bug?

In the bottom right hand side of the form there is a little part that allows you to re size the msg window, maybe that will help?

write your post using Notepad or Word. When you are done, copy and paste the whole thing to the forum.

I had issues before that after I have written a novel, when I clicked submit, I got a timeout message and everything was lost. Going "back" did not help. Now I copy and paste...

I used to get the same issue, I'm not sure what I did to stop it though, if I remember I'll let you know.

Rogue_Hunter, do you use Quick Reply or the Full Editor?

I have never seen this problem in Chrome...

I always Copy (Ctrl+C) long posts just in case, but writing in Notepad is a great backup if the problem persists.

Full editor.

I will try Chrome tonigt. The notepad fix is good as it also avoids the time out issue. Might need to install a light text editor with spellcheck.
