User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7

Can't get a cursor or successfully enter any text into the edit box on a phpwiki
edit page.  This bug happens in Firebird 0.7, but the page works fine when I use
Mozilla 1.4.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit a phpwiki page and click "edit" (or just visit the url I gave for a
sample page.  Actually, you may need to get there from
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/SandBox -- They give a sample username,
no passwd.)
2. Try to change the editable text


Actual Results:  
Nothing happens (maybe a type-ahead find, but can't get text into the box.

Expected Results:  
Edit the text.

You can log in without a password, but the "username" you give must be
capitalized so as to be a wikiword (e.g. JesseRuderman).

I don't have any trouble typing into the textarea, and saving my changes worked.

Joshua, have you tried using the latest nightly build, with a new profile, no
extensions/themes etc... ?

No, and it's unlikely I'll be able to try a new build soon.  I may get a chance
to try a new profile with 0.7, in which case I'll follow-up.
