| [Opera] What's wrong with reply box here on Opera?
What is the matter with the reply box here on Opera? It works fine to start a new topic like I am presently doing. However, if I click on the "reply" button on a thread, I get this weird little box on the left of the reply box and the mouse cursor will not go in the reply box...only in the tiny box on the left. This is ver 9.22.

Well, it is ok now here. But I was just over at Wilders Security where I was informed I had tried to login with invalid password and I had not made any attempt as I was hunting for the password in my password folder and wasn't near the computer. Then I logged in and the page was very distorted looking. I tried to make a thread there and got a tiny reply box (bigger than here but still tiny). I tried to upload two screenshots and the site said both had uploaded but only one appeared and the upload page there was very distorted looking also.
I just hope it stays ok here and maybe when I revisit Wilders it will magically be ok again. I have seen both the reply box here and the strangeness at Wilders on other occasions using Opera but not often thank goodness. I have no idea what would cause this. I have rebooted at least 5 times in the past 24 hours since we got a speed upload upgrade (a BIG one) and the ONLY browser that has worked correctly since the speed upgrade is IE on all computers. I have no idea how a speed upgrade could mess up my browsers but it happened immediately after I rebooted the modem to get the speed upgrade.

Well, this reply box is also normal looking.
Yes, I am using Proxo. I have cache turned off (both types).
When I started Opera it presented me with a page I haven't seen in ages asking if I wanted to start fresh or load the tabs from the last time. Usually, it just automatically loads the tabs. I don't why it asked me this time and hasn't other times.

Glad you resolved this one, I was gonna suggest that maybe fit to window width was enabled, but it appears you figured out the problem. |

| Aha! Thanks. It did it again a few minutes ago. I switched to IE as, for some weird reason, I have no problems with it but do with all other browsers. I came back just now to this thread and saw your reply and thought aha! I had checked fit to width in preferences for Castlecops that produces a horizontal scroll bar other wise. All I did was look to see for sure if I still had it checked and the page convulsed and I had the normal box to type it. I had it checked and I didn't uncheck it. Just opening preferences "fixed" it. That seemed nutty (but my computers have been doing a steady stream of nutty things for 24 hours now) so I tried another thread and clicked reply and got the tiny box again. So, this time I went in preferences and unchecked fit to width and the screen reloaded and I have a proper box.
