@Scakk Thank you that's another IE8 bug. I'll see if I can get it fixed. The posts are supposed to auto-append when you reach the bottom of the page.
@Cheiron What if you click inside the box and press Control+A? What browser and version are you using? I'll test it. Also, can you give me an example of a snippe that doesn't work in mIRC. I tested copying some snippets into mIRC and they worked even though I was using IE8.
ok.. i clicked in the box .. i right clicked and selected all .. nothing plus i manually highlighted and went to right click to copy .. nothing. thats how i usually used to do it Hawkee and it worked or i clicked on the select code button on the page which used to auto highlight all. which is no longer there. browser is chrome on windows vista
as for the code i couldnt get going... http://www.hawkee.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=23730 that one there :)
running latest version of chrome .. 18.0.1025.151 m
now some codes in forum i can manually highlight, right click and there is the copy etc fine.. but longer posts refuse point blank too.. plus you cannot manually highlight and drag down anymore on a page where before you used to be able too.. just gonna try the snippets section now
i went here .. http://codemirror.net/demo/folding.html and highlighted that and right clicked.. and the page jumped with no copy/paste option. also right clcik and select all doesnt work,
trying some of the others on highlight .. they show me copy/paste. but on none there do the right click and select all work
now this is interesting.. just installed FF11 and tried with that .. i can manually highlight now and right click and get the copy /paste options come up ok.. still cannot right click and select all though.. or highlight and drag down if the code requires scrolling the page down like we used to be able to do.
@Cheiron Can you tell me if you get the same behavior here: http://jsfiddle.net/Hawkee/vq6MH/1/ - They also use CodeMirror.
@Cheiron It could be that jsfiddle uses an iframe for the code rather than a textarea. But I can't explain why it works here, but not on your machine. I wonder if it's something to do with Vista or maybe a program you have running outside of your browsers that handles copy/paste. I'm running OS X and haven't been able to duplicate the error.
In any event I'm adding a "Select Code" button like we had before, so that should help.
Nice. :)
