Trouble When Writing Large Posts

Does anyone else have trouble when writing a large post, in that the text in the "message body" window eventually jumps up and down, so the cursor keeps disappearing off the bottom of the window, and you can't actually see what you're writing?
Or is it just my computer?

I only get that on my iPhone. What type of computer and browser are you using?

Internet Explorer, and a Sony Vaio laptop.
It's only the little window (that I'm typing in now) which does it. The rest of the page is fine.
It only does it after a few dozen lines of text, quite awhile after the little scroll bar thing on the right hand side has appeared.

Yep, that previous post reminds me I get it at my bros place using IE. It gets confused with the nested scrolling windows

Sweet. I've got Firefox, so next time I write a big post I'll try using it.
