You can view the bug on the the URL above, but PLEASE do not submit the form / alter the database! If the css file is not imported, the problem does not occur. The problem does not occur in IE7, Opera or win-Safari. Forums on the internet suggest to add overflow:auto to those divs but that does not resolve the problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load http://ellehauge.net/cms_cv_new.php?edit_id=104. 2. Click and edit the input or textareas. 3. The cursor/caret is gone. Actual Results: No cursor / caret. Expected Results: Visible cursor / caret.

I see this with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1.7pre) Gecko/20070801 BonEcho/2.0.0.7pre but not with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9a8pre) Gecko/2007081203 Minefield/3.0a8pre ID:2007081203 Please test with a trunk build, and if you see the caret as expected, then mark this bug WORKSFORME (Fixed for firefox 3) - http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/

My current _guess_ is either late November 2007 or early February 2008.
Thanks. Please include zoom-feature in next release - now that both WinSafari and IE7 as well as Opera have it! It's crucial to accessibility.

I run 3.0a8 and the cursor disappears in Google Mail and Google Docs. Furthermore, this seems related to the fact that I cannot compose new mails, only answer existing ones, because I cannot write in the main (body) text field when it is empty. When I reply to mail, the cursor is invisible in the main form.
