I've had this issue with IE7, but it's worse with IE8 and even Firefox does it, but when the amount of text I type goes beyond the box, it scrolls upwards everytime I hit a character, so it makes it hard to edit or even read what I'm typing.
Anyone else have this problem? I believe I only have this problem on this board.

Re: Text Box Scolling Up When Typing
I have this issue as well. I agree it's very annoying. IE8 on Vista.
Re: Text Box Scolling Up When Typing
IE 8 on WinXP does this on my laptop as well.
As well as destroys my computer's resources.
I switched to Firefox and problem eliminated.

Re: Text Box Scolling Up When Typing
My new laptop with Windows 7 and IE8 still does this, so hard, I have to type long posts in Notepad first than pasting into the window. The same goes with the BB3 board of the Nissan truck club, I think it even does it on the Rx8club boards but I haven't posted enough on there to notice

Re: Text Box Scolling Up When Typing
I started using Safari recently and it doesn't do this. IE and Firefox fail compared to it.
