Hello,
I think that this was asked a while back, but when I try to send a PM or post in a thread the screen jumps around as I try to type.
Is there something I can do about this?
Thanks for any answers.
Karl

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

Re: What's with the jumpiness...
Actually, happened to me yesterday when I was typing up a new post for the 40K section. Didn't start until I got way down in the post so I want to say it might have something to do with length of post vs viewable screen?

I've never had that happen, and I post... considerably more often than the average poster.
I use IE6 at work and IE7 at home.

Re: What's with the jumpiness...
That's why I only have mine set to alert me... and I have IE8 removed entirely from the alert list.
I never EVER download a new IE version until it's been out AT LEAST a year, so they can get the major bugs *ahem* and security failures patched up.

My wife changed her laptop to "automatic updates" because she got tired of the taskbar popups and asking me if it was needed.MagickalMemories wrote:That's why I only have mine set to alert me... and I have IE8 removed entirely from the alert list.

Lesson learned. Now, every time she closes the lid, it reboots and gives a "windows has recovered from etc.etc.etc.". Too stubborn to ask me to fix it as well. Wonder how long thats gonna last?
Please leave feedback after trade is completed.

Re: What's with the jumpiness...
Thanks guys. The Compatibility button did the trick. I knew it was something easy.
And Jim, I don't drink too much coffee...
Well, maybe I do.

Re: What's with the jumpiness...
Mine is in the pull down from the Tools button. Just click on your tools button and halfway down is a "Compatibility View" option. Click on that and the jumpiness goes away. At least the non-coffee style...

Re: What's with the jumpiness...
Could swear I looked there before I posted, saw nothing. Looked again after you posted, there it is. Thanks!
