Need help with writing text

Dunno what you are talking about but one thing I have noticed is if I manage to get a line started with a white space as the first character That line or subsequent paragraph often ends up being relocated by the gremlins in the monkey works to an off place in your post that makes you look more dyslexic disorganized and tangential than I really am.

Thanks for the humor cr1. At least I can have a laugh while waiting for a solution or alternatively finding out that nobody knows what I am talking about either (I’m not even sure I do at this point).

I am having similar issues. The cursor disappears, or shows up in a spot different from the real cursor. This is probably related to some change in internet explorer, or some subroutine that no longer works with some other changes. I actually write any long post in a text editor and copy and paste it into LJ’s. I will drop a note to Martin.

Hi Jim, I think it’s a glitch in LJ because I use Safari on my Mac. I’m not sure what a text editor is. Can you explain?

Mike and Jim I have the same problem here once in a while.
If it’s too often PM Martin.

If it’s not politics don’t expect and solution from cr1. lol

Man I I thought it was just me with the disappearing curser . What makes it show up again for me is putting my arrow on the review button , I don’t even need to click on it . But that just works till it disappears the next time .

I tried this but did not have the same problem. Is this a Mac browser issue? I’m using Chrome on Windows Vista.

A text editor is a separate program like notepad. I use something slightly different. I just write my note on a different program, and then copy and paste into LJ’s.

It may have something to do with the browser or the operation system, meaning LJ’s has a problem with different browsers. It is not our problem, it is LJ’s.

For awhile I thought it was just my system. But, since you are having a problem, it is more general.

I have notified Martin. I suspect he will figure it out.

There are constant changes in the programs used to make these sites, much of it having to do with security and virus concerns. Occasionally, there are unanticipated consequences.

By the way, if you only write short comments, the problem will not appear.

Right now, everything is working fine….........maybe it has already been fixed.

I am trying to recreate the problem, and it is no longer there…........probably fixed.

Thanks guys for the help, but it still doesn’t work for me. Once a line of text is out off site and I scroll back to it to change something every key stroke returns me to where I was typing prior to scrolling up.

I will just write my comments in word when I am ‘wordy’ from now on and copy it to LJ.

Dave I hope the blood doesn’t rush to your head while typing upside down.
