When I hit delete, I go back a page?

12 years ago

When I use the backspace bar to delete the content of the page I'm working on, it goes from deleting the words on my current page, to going back a page, to deleting everything on the last page in the blink of an eye. I've had to re-write at least a dozen pages because of this, and my first story is already too big to begin with. Does this happen to everyone? Or maybe an issue with my brower (IE10) or keyboard?

Gah! I'm so frustrated.

it does the same thing for me at times. It's a keyboard command, I believe. That's why I use the delete key instead.

This happens when the focus of your mouse cursor gets out of the edit box. When not on the box, it applies to the page (which is why it takes your browser back).

Just be sure you click in the box specifically before using the backspace key (or avoid it all together).

ya its keyboard command,  natural just make sure your cursor is blinking in the edit box and you'll be fine. Amazing profile pic btw.
