Firefox 3.6, Editing broken? Options

[Garf]

Hi all,

is anyone else having problems using Firefox 3.6 with the site? Around the time I upgraded, I'm no longer able to use the edit boxes here as well as before. For example, the cursor is no longer displayed in an edit box, so I'm not able to navigate around.

Yes, I have the same issue, although funnily enough it doesn't appear consistent, it works sometimes.

Apparently it is a bug that was fixed in a later version of InvisionPowerBoard, is updating HA's IPB to a newer version an option?

Upgrading IPB to a new major release is not an option. I've seen no proof so far this is an IPB bug anyway. Every other browser besides Firefox 3.6 works.

Works fine for me.

OK, breaks here too after enabling "rich text editor".

This fix was brought to my attention by Yirkha, so I've applied it. He also provided a diff of the two files, indicating a work-around for Mozilla/Gecko:
