I have had intermittent trouble posting links and threads and have worked out how to fix it but not why it's happening (exactly)

The problem is at weekends when I use my Hudl not desk top.
If I have multiple pages open I get a problem posting.
Everything is normal except I cannot see my curser and when I type nothing happens, the page remains blank.
If I close my other pages the problem goes away.

I just thought I would follow up.

Thanks

Hi,
I can create the symptoms you describe if I accidentally pushed the 'preview' button

.
Is that your problem ?

Thanks for looking into it.
I tried to reply but couldn't because of the issue!
So it's not just posting a thread it's replying too. I am pretty sure I am not changing any settings by mistake or preview.
Pages open, problem, pages closed problem goes away.
It's nuts!

Sounds like a system resource - what version of Windows & browser?

For Win 10 try:
You can see resource problems by opening the task manager, click on browser process, look at data.
Create the problem then go back to task manager. You will likely see multiple processes in the process tree for the browser - which is okay, unless your browser is eating resources.
