Okay...I've only tried the default colour scheme with scalable fonts....But when I try to reply to a post, I seem to never get a cursor. This is the first post I've actually written without replying, and I've got a cursor now, but never have before. Ain't heard no one else mention it, so what's the deal?

This missing cursor is a bug with some versions of Netscape (verified on their site). I believe it is fixed in the most recent version.

Have netscape 7.01....And yep...Responding to this, I have no cursor again. What a pisser. Guess I could start trying to access from explorer again, even though explorer has that tendency to time out and not allow re-entry.

Give Mozilla a try if you have a choice. Have v1.2.1 and have a cursor. Plus has all the pop-up blocking stuff available. No more X-10 ads!

Leyb, after you've opened your posting window, try minimizing and then maximizing it. Your cursor should appear when you click in the text box again.

I've been having the same issue using Netscape 7.0 and either switching once between another open program or min/maxing the posting window seems to restore the cursor.

Wryt.

Whee!...Thanks a ton, Wryt...That'll work. And thanks for the suggestion of other browsers as well...I just don't feel like having a half dozen on my machine...Two that don't work well is quite enough. :P
