Is it just me?

For the last couple of months or so I have been having a problem with this square box I am typing in. Sometimes when I hit the backspace key, it takes me back to my last page viewed instead of erasing the last letter I typed. Or I will type something and when I look ...there is nothing there; I have to click to make the cursor flash and then type it again. And why does this box only take up a portion of the page? Can't they at least make it as wide as the finished box on the boards? That's all -- off my box now.

I do know that the backspace key is also a keyboard shortcut to go back a page - I use it all the time, saves using the mouse. Try it. Stella

I use that too Stella, but it is a bit annoying when it does that in the middle of you typing something.
