Np. The merge contacts plugin for contacts comes in quite handy once you add your fb IM account. Even more so when you add in your other IM accounts as well!

Im experiencing this again tonight and I think I've found a way around it.

I just enter a new line before posting what ive wrote - i.e. finish writing
>> shift + enter >> enter. That seems to work for me,

I don't have any problems with commenting on Facebook since I'm so used to selecting all, copy and pasting. What I do have a problem with is viewing photos.

Facebook has changed their site once again, and now it's more difficult to view photos and the comments of those photos. When you click on a photo, it pops up a big black background with the photo floating over the news feed, but when you try to scroll down it [the MicroB] thinks you're scrolling through the news feed instead, so the photo viewing disappears and reappears in the process. The picture is sometimes too big and I can't scroll to the comment section of that picture. Even the zoom in/zoom out doesn't work that well. It's just really annoying. I was just wonder if there's any round-abouts to this.

I donno about FB as I don't use that. But one of my hardware stores has a similar annoying pic viewer now. There microB's hover mode helps. Have you tried that?

when you see the new notification for the comments, just click the red icon to see list of new notifications, press the "see all notifications" at the bottom, then when the full list loads, touch and hold on the "photo" link and select "open link in new window" do it for all photos...

you might know this already, just wanted to give hints

Yeah, it is definitely easier to open photos in a new window rather than click on the directly.

I have the truncated comments problem too, and also the issue with photos described above.
I wish Facebook would employ some better developers. They don't seem to be familiar with the "if it aint broke don't fix it" principle. Do they have too much spare time on their hands or something?

Can you try my suggestion in post #32 above and see if that helps with the truncating issue.
