WTF Help EBEN

Post by Bugger »

Every time I do a post or a reply on a PM and it is longer than the post screen when I go lower down and write the page keeps jumping up to the start of the post

Any one else got this problem :zhelp:

Had the same problem, but now it's stopped. I also just typed in notepad and copied the text.

Eben, it might not have anything to do with your forum, it happens to me too, but also when I am in yahoo mail. I find it happens when I scroll up and down a lot with the little wheel on the mouse, or if I hold down the scroll button (the little arrow pointing up or down on the right of the screen) too long. Then I close the window, restart it and it stops doing it. :puterwork:

Yeah I don't think it has anything to do with the forum either, it didn't go to the top unless I scrolled there:

mine is nothing like that.
If I type a long post, after a while, as I am typing, the screen automatically scrolls up so I cant see the text I am inputting, but rather 5 or 6 lines higher. I can then scroll down to view what I have done, but if I put the curser on a new spot or backspace (any keyboard input really), the screen then scrolls up a few lines again so I cant see what I am doing.
This only happens on this forum - cant say if it is the same on other forums, cause I am not so active elsewhere that I feel I need to write 10 lines or more.....

the only time i experience something similar is when im at home, but i suspect its my mouse. cos sometimes when im scrolling (not just this forum) it goes nuts and even tho im scrolling down it takes me to the top.
My mechanic told me, "I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder."

Exactly this and aswell when I type a sentance fast then have to wait for the words to pop up finishing the line and I am not the fastest typest on the forum

The back space is also a problem it is delayed so you need to juge how namy backspaces you need to erase
