Okay, I take back the "no weirdness" thing - I had never tried the spellcheck function before. You're right, holloway, it does the same thing to me in 6.04/Win2k.

It's all fun and games until the epileptic seizures set in...
I'm surprised there aren't wrongful death lawsuits over creation of the blink tag for Internet Explorer.

weird. well, I guess don't use the spellchecker (it uses basic javascript to talk to the comment box), or use mozilla instead.

That's because it was in Netscape.

kindall: d'oh. I always get the proprietary marquee and blink tags mixed up. Guilty as charged.

Opera is my standard browser, and I don't get any scrollbar problems, but the spell check deletes whole posts except for replaced words, in both MeTa and MeFi. (Opera 6.05 / Win98.)
I know that Opera has no support for the "overflow" CSS property, but I don't see anything in MeFi's CSS which could be causing problems. (Unless those proprietary colored scrollbars are doing things?)
