Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 284245

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Stephen Shores]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050324 MultiZilla/1.8.0.1d
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050324 MultiZilla/1.8.0.1d

When I try to enter a new entry in my blog (stshores.blogspot.com), the text box
that you use to compose new posts does not allow you to type anything except in
the title and link section. 

This may be difficult to demonstrate unless you sign up for your own Blogger
account. ;)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log into my blog.
2. Click 'New Post'.
3. Attempt to type in the text box.

Actual Results:  
I can't type anything in the text box.

Expected Results:  
Let me type in the text box.

I updated to the latest version of Java (1.50.2) available from www.java.com,
because the WYSIWYG interface used to enter blog posts is a Java app. This
didn't change things.

The themes don't seem to have anything to do with it. I've used the Modern theme
before and currently use the iCandy theme from http://www.mozthemes.tk/. Neither
one alter this issue.

Incidentally, the problem disappears when I uninstall 1.8b2 and go back to
1.7.5. I just like the 1.8 betas better. ;)
