Do you mean caret or cursor?
That (no caret) used to happen in one of our products of FF, but only with a WYSIWYG editor, not a plain old text box.

Yes, I do, but it's back now, I did not know it was called a caret, I thought it was the text cursor :(

Wiki wrote:
In computing, a cursor is an indicator used to show the position on a computer monitor or other display device that will respond to input from a text input or pointing device. The flashing text cursor may be referred to as a caret in some cases


Wiki says I am correct.

Wiki also says I'm correct - it's just there's no ambiguity if you use the word caret.

Anyway, it's back now, why did it disappear for my entry in the football thread, and my composition of the original post, but was back for the first reply...

I think using JS to focus on the textbox used to make it vanish - maybe that bug came back?

[edit]Gratz!

Wait - is it a difference between the quick reply box* and the normal reply box?

* "We have a quick reply box?!" - 10 people

no, I don't use the quick reply box (I am aware of it, but I don't really like it)
