Message Board Has a Quirk, Me Thinketh!

My mouse arrow disappears when placed over any active field when submitting a question or response. It’s kind of annoying. I am trying to point with the mouse to place the cursor where I want it, and then I’m driving blind! Also, when looking at Cecil’s “Today’s Quesions”, the mouse arrow will disappear when moved over the text.

Is this a new bug, or I’ve just never noticed? It’s so annoying, I doubt I never noticed. OK, now everybody sing: “What have they done to our Boards, ma? What have they done to our Boards?”

Correction! When the mouse arrow is placed over any text, the mouse arrow disappears! It makes it very hard to put a word in italics, for example! I can’t see what word I’m selecting! How annoying! :mad:

Oh, Magoo, you’ve done it again ole boy! That’s another fine mess you’ve gotten me into, Stanley! - Jinx

What’s supposed to happen is that the mouse arrow turns into the “insert text” symbol, which looks like a little I-beam. Not having heard any other complaints, I venture to say this is local to your computer. Do you notice this with other programs? Have you tried re-booting?

That’s what I get. Uhh, yeah, just so you know.

Please stand by. The trouble is not in your [TV] set…it’s in your head!
It seems to have fixed itself. It just seemed to be happening here! Hmm…
Should I be taking it personally?

Thanks!
