Broken Posting

*Continued from the end of the last * section. I also forgot to state that due to this it is impossable to remove anything without deleteing everything before it. For example I can not remove the fdf without deleting everything above it and even then trying to get access to that line may be impossiable. 

*Continued from the in the * section below (is it not great getting to read backwords!). default configuration for how the posting box should work. It appears you have replaced it with some java  version to look fancy or something (I have not searched vbulletin.org to try to find it) however this version does not add any features over the default option and instead creates huge problems. I would like to suggest that you please get rid of this and switch back to the default posting entry box. 

*This now continues from the word way please read below first. That the posting box functions. First it is impossiable to see where the curser is or control where it is leading to the problem you are likely having reading this. Second this system also prevents spell check which is really annoying for people like me who can not spell very well and for people like you who hate reading things that are misspelled.  Due to these problems I have not posted since the update and as a result basically stoped using the foums. I am sure that many other users have had simular issues but were so frustrated that they have not even posted about it. I run a vb4 site and as a result know that this is not the

I have tested and found this to be an extension problem in firefox. However this logically does not fix the issue of not having spell check which is why I sopped posting in the first place.

 

Regardless the site should not be configured in a way such as to require that users reprogram their web browser in order to be able to use it correctly. People should not need an instruction manual on how to configure their web browser in order to use a paricular website. I would really like to get a movement here to have this pointless java box removed. Wow I can resize it, does not really matter for how many problems it creates.

You know you can just hold Ctrl before second-clicking in order to use the spell check, right?

This very site told me that when trying to use Cut and Paste once using the Java box's pop-up menu.  Ctrl allows one to use the browser's own pop-up menu instead, allowing for spellchecks and what not.

I think the Java box's pop-up menu should be disabled altogether.

 

Also, select and deselect Source to reset(?) the cursor, then you can work normally.  On the rare occasion this happens [to me], I just do that.
