IE: It erases the character to the left of the cursor. However, when I'm editing an email to send (as I am right now) when I hit the backspace key it instead acts like I hit delete. (Erasing the character under the cursor). Any ideas as to why this might be happening? It's highly frustrating. Thanks in advance for your help. -- ________________________________________________________________________ Mike Barrett | "I used to read, now I go to raves." mike@daboyz.org | -- Random MUNI Rider, speaking www.daboyz.org | to my friend Allison. ------------------------+----------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
