Difficulty posting?
« on: March 05, 2017, 09:18:55 pm »
Anyone having difficulties posting? Myself and a few other Mods are experiencing this and we need to see how extensive it may be. If you have trouble while typing a reply, the curser disappears and you have to click it again to continue, let us know so we can get to the bottom of it.

  Thanks

Happened to me Friday afternoon. I closed my browser, reopened and it was fine.

Hasn't happened to me at all but I use Mozilla all the time for PA.  I am using the new windows though but that shouldn't make any difference

I am having a terrible time time posting today.  The cursor disappears after every letter I type.  It took several minutes to make this post.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

This keeps happening to me when I try to post from my computer. But posting from my phone seems to work ok.

Can you try installing uBlock Origin (google it) and see if that stops it?

I don't know if your problems are related to what I used to have but my cursor used to jump all over the place while writing on my laptops.  I fixed the problem by downloading a small app called TouchFreeze.  I've used the app with Vista, W7 and W10 and never had that problem again

Yep.  I have to type REALLY slow.  I'm glad it's working somewhat ... for now.  The curser disappeared three times during this message.

Something I've noticed about the posting problem.  If it starts doing it to me I'll leave the PA window open and just leave it alone for several minutes.  I'll open another tab and go to other forums.  They will be working fine.  After maybe 5 or 10 minutes I'll go back to the PA window and it will be acting normal again.  I can make multiple posts and everything works as it should.  I'm not sure if this info helps  :-\
