Hi Gents, The issue is this... 'Summary' is a 0 length char field in our environment. But...only 33 chars are displayed on the form itself. So.. even though it's a 0 length char field, when you type the 34th char into the field, I would expect the field to look the same and allow me to continue entering data and watching the string as I type, but.... when you hit the 34th char displayed on the form/field length... you immediately get a scroll bar and no more typing in the field. Make sense? Again... rolling back to FF12 was the trick during the interim to patching.
