Default Text turning white?

Every now and then on a post (several a day) the text turnes white, and highlighting sometimes makes it show up black again....

I'm sure its not completely on my end, but if so let me know what to do. I've seen other people reply to messages I posted because mine was white.

its not just on what i post either, it sometimes is in the middle of a thread that I'm looking at for the first or so time, and sometimes for the umptheen time.

There has been some talk about this in the admin section. It mainly happens when someone has edited a post. It is not something that seems to happen with all browsers but, quite a few of the moderators have reported this happening.

It seems to be some sort of bug in the VBB software and the admin is looking into a fix.

Something that you can do until this gets resolved. Highlight the text in the post that is white and then click within the post box area but, not on the highlighted area. The text should reappear like nothing was ever wrong.

Keep this thread updated and maybe list what browser/OS combination you are using also.

Windows ME, IE v6.0.2800.1106. Scrolling the post off the screen and then back on the screen seems to bring the text back also.

White text here also. Edited and changed the font to correct it.
