The editor doesn't seem to work too well on the above platform.  Having more success with Safari.

I'm seeing the same problem here :-(.

I tried the various workarounds mentioned in the forum - changing keyboard layouts, changing default zoom, but to no avail.

The specific issues I've seen:

- No cursor (which makes editing hard!)

- Format code seemed to get stuck forever - in the end I closed the browser.

 

Agreed, Safari (I'm using 4.0.3) is working OK.

I just tested too and firefox on Mac OS X Snow Leopard has no cursor and format code hangs the whole application.

Safari works great tho so I will keep using that.

Using Firefox 3.5.5 on Windows 7 I have problems with the cursor positioning in the editor.

I have to use Internet Explorer :-(  that works ok

Tried Firefox 3.5.5 on OSX 10.5.8 and I get the issues above so it is no good for Mbed.

Safari 4.02 seems to work ok for me as well.
