Long posts cause text box to glitch upwards.

Just wondering if anyone else is suffering from this. Anytime I start typing long posts, the text box will glitch up and I need to scroll back down to see what I'm typing. This happens on both IE and Firefox for me. Is anyone else suffering from this and is there any way to fix this issue?

Don't make long posts then lol.

Seriously though, I don't experience it using FireFox 3.6.6.

It's a Chrome thing. No, seriously. It spread from Chrome (when it came out) to old IE versions to old versions of FF. Basically "if it is old or scrappy, it does this".

It's a pain to type when that happens. Update, you should be fine.

its not happened to us... but we keep updating to the latest FF versions... and we can say for sure that we've written the longest posts on this forum... we had to split the post into smaller segments to get the forum software to accept posting it at all... for those curious, this is the topic we put those posts in: viewtopic.php?f=199&t=154994

Anyways, update to latest versions... That usually fixes most known bugs... If it doesnt, post again...

Personally, I only get this bug (with all PHPBB-based forums btw) with IE... not with the newest FF versions.
