Has 3.6 put a cap on the lines of text you can type into a reply box??

Been noticing since 3.6 came on line with the Invelos Web site ( which I know does not directly tie into your profiler, but does have certain implications that it does) , I've noticed if I Create or reply to post ( or a PM) and I go beyond 15 lines of typed text in the box provided what happens is the box will 'rise up' and hide line 16..
If I Use the mouse and drag the box line down to line 16 and continue typing it will rise up again and I again can't see what I am typing.. 
I USUALLY only type a few lines like I am doing now,, so I don't  normally see this problem..   
The only work around  is to open up Notepad and create your posting there and  then cut and paste back into Invelos .. Am I the only one? maybe it is something 'new' in Invelos that is creating a problem with my own software issues and others don't have this situation.

I believe this is something with the browser\os. I had (have?) this trouble before, think it was on my laptop that i installed the release candidate of windows 7 on. Unfortunately i haven't used that in a while (so it's probably expired) so I don't know what browser (it was IE, just not sure on the version) and such or if it's still behaving like that. It could of also been tied to the resolution (I remember not being able to set my resolution as high as I had it when running vista)

I Use IE 8  but only experienced this situation in the past few weeks-- Yet I have had IE8  for many months ..  maybe it was a recent update to IE8 I installed that has now created this.?.

I'll test the theory here later today and will login with my laptop that has Mozilla Firefox installed as a browser with  that Laptop..

This has nothing to do with verison 3.6, since this behavior has been around for a long time. I have it now in IE8, but had it before in IE7 as well.

Even if unintentional, it probably helps us to keep posts short, and not include the whole thread of earlier posts.

I've never seen this behavior before. There are times when you reply to a previous post and that previous post maybe a dozen or two lines in length, ,and then you add your lines after that..

I've never seen where the reply box won't allow you to 'see' what you are typing.. Until Now.

Here is a good test site to test your browser and its limitations..
just hit reply and try and type in behind the exisiting text to see if it 'rides' up ..

funny thing about Mozilla web browser over the IE browser is Every Time I want to log back to the website of Invleos.com  
I am prompted to have to log in again (with Mozilla-firefox) even though I am logged in with my name in the upper right hand corner ..
Yet I never have this problem with IE 8 ... 
There is also no spellcheck factor with Mozilla ( you can highlight the misspelled name in question and change it then  but there doesn't seem to be an over all spellcheck tab to check all words for misspelled words .. ( now I now why the Prof's wordy paragraphs are laden with misspelled words..)

There is a spelling checker (at least in 3.6.3). It's under Tools --> Options ---> Advanced ---> Check my spelling as I type.

Edit:
Example

I found on the net this phrase-
"Firefox has lost all your logins and passwords, and you have to rebuild your list. Tools>Options>Security>Remember Passwords for '  ..

So I 'll check this out later.

Found on a Microsoft site:

The textbox scrolling that you are experiencing is often caused by a website that isn't fully compatible with Internet Explorer 8. Internet Explorer 8 has a Compatibility View feature that can load a page the way Internet Explorer 7 would have. Compatibility View should stop the auto scrolling from happening. You can enable Compatibility View by:

    * (On the page that is automatically scrolling) Click Page
    * Click Compatibility View

The page will reload, and you shouldn't experience any automatic scrolling.

Maybe this will help.

An alternative method is clicking the icon just next to the address bar where you type the url. It looks like a piece of paper torn in 2. Once you click it, the problem is fixed.
