Lately I have been having problems with Firefox and this forum.  It's like the browser doesn't recognize the message box (in Quick Reply or when you're creating a new topic or quoting someone, etc.) as a textbox.  It won't let me type in the box, and I have to play around to get it to finally put a cursor in the box.  Anyone else have this issue?  It didn't used to do this but only recently started having this issue.

Yes, I had the problem of not being able to type in the box with Firefox. I've been using Explorer and/or Chrome instead.

We're not sure what's up with firefox; there have been a few reported problems. I have no issues with Chrome, so that may be the best choice until we figure out the problem.

I can't see the cursor only when I want to start writing but I can type normally and send messages.

Problems here too, mostly with images and Youtube.  But I don't want to switch browsers, so I'm really hoping Max and Phillippe can get to the bottom of it.

The past month or so I either can't get the whole PA website to load. It takes an average of 3-5 min. to load any page. I use firefox (latest). The site is beyond slow, it's useless.

Just for the record, the problem occurs in Chrome as well.  I mostly use Explorer for Prog-Archives and Chrome for everything else.

Can confirm this problem ... I'm using Firefox only .., and can't drag & drop images into a reply window anymore, though not a major issue because copy and paste still works ...

Yes, this is true. I can't understand it at first, but I was able to wirte, even don't seeing the cursor.

However, there were another problems, mainly with embbedding videos. I've changed my browser to Opera, it's all working fine now.

...Firefox was the best browser once, but now they destroyed their own product!Cry

I've had increasing problems with this forum in Firefox (another forum I use works fine).

Now I cannot seem to post images.  It shows up in "Preview Post," but not in the actual post.
