I think it's not just scrolling. Oftentimes, folks will copy and paste a new tagline. If there are carriage returns in the copied text, I don't think more than the first line will paste into a single-line textbox. With a multi-line textbox, it all pastes in with no problems.

Grr. I hate counting my own characters.

I may be a minion of the evil empire, but I do like MSW's wordcount feature.

Yup, JS free. And not just because we have lynx users. Actually, no. There is JS to put your cursor in the name field on the login screen.

Oh, this is something silly I meant to ask a while ago. For WX, on the login page, you could just tab out of the password box and it'd start processing your login automatically. I just thought that was so cool.

Since there's already one piece of JS on the login page, could there be the one that does that? 'Cause I don't know what it is, but every time I used it it made me happy.

You mean hit "enter", not "tab out", don't you? I've never heard of the latter. I don't know how to code the "enter" thing, but someone else probably does.

Dude, check it out. Type your stuff then tab out, or click anywhere outside the password box.

You mean hit "enter", not "tab out", don't you?

I know what she's talking about. On WX, you can put the pointer in the "name" box, type your name, then tab, then password, then tab, and it'll log you in. Here, you need to press return at the end of that sequence.

It's just-- tab! I have no idea how it worked, because I don't know anything about that sort of thing, but it made me ridiculously giddy every time I used it. It was so cute.

t rereads last few posts I am such a loser.

I stand corrected! I looked at the code and it's not too hard to do, but it uses JavaScript. Basically it says, if you're in the password window and leave it (this uses the OnBlur method), AND the username field is not blank, then submit the form.

t edit Actually, it checks that both the username and password are both non-blank.

Actually, no. There is JS to put your cursor in the name field on the login screen.

And thanks for that. I suggested it at Salon, since other sites were doing it, even offered the exact code to cut and paste the second time I suggested (several months later), and they brushed me off.

MSW isn't my browser.

Please, let's not make tab emulate hitting the submit button. Enter shouldn't even emulate it on forms with more than one field.

MSW isn't my browser.

I meant, Word. You don't have any wordcount-having word-processing application on your computer?
