Comment post bug

Hey.

Only recently I've been having this problem with posting comments, has anyone else got it?
So I'm posting a comment on a project that's still loading. Every time the project loads and starts playing, it won't let me type further. Not even if I press the stop button or re-click the comment box. I usually have to refresh to try post the comment again.
This has been going on for the past week. Previously if this happened you could click the comment box again and finish typing your comment, but sadly it won't let me anymore. I think it's something the Scratch Team changed in how the project plays or something.
Oh ya, I'm running Mozilla Firefox on a Windows XP.

Re: Comment post bug

Several people have found that with XP and Firefox 3.6 the scroll-wheel on the mouse doesn't work on the Project page.  You can't use it to scroll down to see all the comments.

The wheel works on all the other pages (home, projects, forums, etc) but not on the Project pages themselves.

So there may be some general problems with this 3.6 update.

Sorry, I haven't yet tried the "comment" problem you talked about. But with this other problem it doesn't surprise me.   hmm

Re: Comment post bug

I get this too. This is what I do. Click on the page, outside the project and the comment box, then click back into the comment box. That should work. Or else, stop the project, then do what I said above. The project usually takes the focus from the comment box, thus making you unable to type.


Hai.

If it's only 3.6, I'm glad I haven't updated yet.

I hope that works for the Comments problem.

Nothing that people have tried has worked yet for the Scroll-wheel problem...
