i have been having typing problems with the forum for a month or so.
no problems on other platforms - just the forum.

eg, if i type forum at normal speed it might come out as "frm".

anyone else had this problem?

jon

No problems here Jon ,you sure it ain't just your crap spelling mate

so you check even these sections Jim.

seriously,it is only on the forum i get this problem.

here is an example of me not correcting:-

"tomorw i am going to te toy fair in sandown"

fck nws what the problem is

jon

dyslexia mate

Probably dave.
Oh well I shall manage

I get a problem, when replying to pm's. After a certain amount of writing, the text just drops, and you can't see what you're typing. Most weird...only ever happens on here

YES ian i am getting that too at the moment - mainly on pm's as you say

no doubt the techy's will say its virus protection playing its part

Can you identify when this happens, i.e how many characters have you have put in before the text drops? I've been trying to replicate this problem but no matter how much text I type in a reply to a PM all seems OK.

for me neil i can't be specific but i would say between 5 and 10 characters

Jon,

Very strange - I can't think of an explanation for that.

Often happened to me the same thing.
I use mac / firefox

Happens to me everytime on pm's.

Usually when you add the quote from the person you're replying too.
