727915 2008-12-11 09:19:00 Hey all,

Asking this on behalf of my fiance (I suggest she just get a Gmail account but she likes her Hotmail...).

Basically she can do everything fine, except for adding text to the body of a message, it just wont let her select the body to begin typing:
Attached file: Broken_Hotmail.png (www.imagef1.net.nz) (28 KB)

We've tried multiple PC's and multiple browsers, with no joy. Tried to change from Rich Text to HTML or Plain Text edit without any luck (It just doesnt change).

Any ideas what may be causing this?

Cheers


Chill.

727916 2008-12-11 09:26:00 I just had a go on my hotmail account and it let me type text into the body of the message. You could try again in the morning, everything feels better after a good nights sleep :) davidmmac (4619)
727917 2008-12-11 09:49:00 Hm, it works for me... I'd try creating another account (it doesn't take long) and seeing if it works for that one if it was me. I don't see why something like this would be account specific, but...as my threads about MSN lately, show, MSN can be weird sometimes. Bussani (14313)
727918 2008-12-11 10:34:00 Does hotmail require java? I'm ignorant on this, but if that is the case and your fiance's java has recently updated. Try uninstalling the latest update, rebooting and going back to the last version.
Cheers,
Marnie

727919 2008-12-11 10:57:00 Its been like this for a couple of days now ... odd indeed. Its not just limited to her box, I just gave her my 900-series EeePC and its happening on that too, not to mention we've tested it on her other laptop as well as my desktop PC.

Dont think it requires Java, I dont have it on my Desktop ...
