Thanks Drex and UCrewX5! Forum working fine on Firefox 3.0 (on PC) now!

Since moving to Firfox 3, I dont have a cursor when editing a post and cant cut and paste copy when editing posts...it is very annoying!

This is the ONLY forum I have issues with.
I have found out how to fix it! (Hopefully this isn't a repost)

Whenever that happens (it's usually because I click the screen too early while loading), press the little "A/A" that's in the upper right corner of the reply box. The cursor appears when it is not highlighted.

If you want a more detailed explanation, PM me.

You can edit your default editor by going to the Edit Options screen in your User Control Panel - http://www.x5world.com/profile.php?do=editoptions . It is down near the bottom. The conflict with Firefox 3 appears to be associated with the WYSIWYG editor (my personal preference)

FF3 really is faster though. I thought the 2-3 times faster was just marketing. but from the moment i started the browser, it was flying. I'm running it on my Linux laptop and XP desktop. I actually downgraded back to 2.0 on the linux because of the X5world issue LOL
