It has happened again today, and several times before. See mark's post #3 here www.p2pindependentforum.com/thread/300/loans-drawdown-update?page=2When you click "quote" that comes up quickly enough and you can start typing ..... but where? When the quote is quite a long one there is no apparent separate box for the reply. and the cursor has to be manually inserted. This is far too easily put (in error) in the quote box rather than below it. Can this be avoided by the cursor automatically being placed below the quotation (and flashing? |

It's even worse on a phone - most quoted messages are too big for the box and when I want to find the end of the message to add a reply I have to insert the cursor part way through the message just get the traction to scroll to the end of the message so I can start tapping out words. Or is that a Samsung /Android issue and out of our control? (And, before anyone suggests it, I've already tried shouting at it, but that doesn't work.) :-)

Trapped in a banana! OMG!  The only thing I can think of is to change your default editor to the other option and see if it has any effect - Profile | Edit Profile | Settings | Posting Default. I'm not convinced it will, but I guess it's worth a try... |

Easiest way is to switch from the WYSIWYG Preview editor to the BBCode editor (tabs at the bottom of the edit window) so that you can see the BBCode markup.
