shrinking text box? - Tilted Forum Project - TFP - Sexuality, Philosophy and Political Discussion

Hi guys, the text box where I write my replies and such keep shrinking. They appear normal size when the page first loads, but then begin to shrink. It's not a huge huge issue, but it's certainly very annoying.

I am using Opera 9.5 in case it needs to be known.

Wait... I'm still on Opera 9.2... how can this be???

EDIT: I have also come across this problem, and I'm not sure if it is Opera-singular in its irregularity, but what I do know is that it only happens when the browser is windowed and not full-screen. So, if that tid-bit of information helps, I'm glad to have offered it.

Never mind. I'm an idiot.

for me, if the screen is windowed, the textbox still shrinks

Yeah, then go fullscreen until you or I can talk to Opera support about why this is happening. It is a bit troublesome to try to write something if the textbox keeps shrinking.

Use a browser that doesn't shrink text boxes?
