SID-00506: Jumpy Edit in WYSIWYG

Status: Answered Answered TWiki version: 4.0.0 Perl version:
Category: CategoryEditing Server OS: Last update: 14 years ago

My team is very new to wikis and so they were excited when we discovered we could use the WYSIWYG way to edit rather than code. I warned them (as I had read in the WIkis for Dummies) that, that way of editing isn't perfect and can be buggy. For the most part it has worked, but one person is really having problems with the page jumping around in that mode. When she places her curser in a spot on the page it suddenly jump back up to the top and when she scrolls back down, the curser may or may not be where she placed it. It also happens quite inconsistently but frequently enough that it is really annoying for this person to edit in that mode. Have you run across this before, do you know any work arounds (other than coding in TWiki mark-up, where of course it isn't jumpy). She is on a Dell Latitude D620 lap top.

Discussion and Answer

This is very strange-this could be her laptop issue, is she facing this only with TWiki or with other tools/applications/websites too?

Request her or ask other user to try editing the same topic from different laptops/pcs. Or ask her try using different browser.
