Sometimes. when posting, print will suddenly go back to line above where I'm typing. It puts remaining part of post BEFORE the first part. What gives?

Happens to me to....I just cancel the post and start over again....
The only time I have this problem is when I use my laptop with the touch pad turned on. If I get any of my fingers close to the touch pad the cursor will jump to odd places depending upon just where my finger touched or almost touched. I've never seen this occur when using a regular keyboard.
It happens to me too if I try to make any corrections. I found that the problem goes away if I reply using the "Go Advanced" option. Give it a try.Quote:

Not one instance of the annoying problem since. This solved a couple of other annoying and disastrous things too. Life is good.

Awesome. Finally.
The top "test" is the result of typing the first letter of the fourth word then backspacing to delete it and the beginning to type again. This is really frustrating.
The second "test" was the same actions but, in "Go Advanced" mode. I can die happy.
If you're happy, I'm happy! :)Quote:
