Unfortunately I'm stuck at work having to use IE6, but it's a pain in the ass!

Haven't tried it with TinyMCE but certainly with the standard text editor I can't swipe words to highlight them with the mouse. I have to use the keyboard.

using IE6 and there is no highlighting problem.

so there is a problem here that the editor is not all browser friendly.

I am not able to use rich text editor although it is selected in option menu. It is only with Opera which is faster then FireFox on my PC ;)

I have tabs in IE 7 beta and the highlighting works everywhere but when I am editing a post. I don't use the rich editor (thankyou drmike), and keep checking all my options.

It is starting to drive me nuts.

Then I bought a new computer. A 2.8 Ghz dual Core Pentium D, 4 Gigs of Ram, and lots of harddrives.

Now this happens. And it only happens when I am to edit my weblog even as I write i can hightlight the text I am typing.

Yes this is strage to me too. I think i will pray to the ram commando gods, and try again.

If you're not using Firefox, you may want to check it out:
