the backspace key does not work and the delete key does not work

greenspun.com : LUSENET : ASPEdit : One Thread

When I click on the backspace key it just goes over the text and does not erase it. Also when I hit the delete key it deletes text three and four characters to the right of my cursor. very strange. It makes the editor totally unusable. Any thoughts ?

Run the tab to spaces converter first, it looks like its confused by the tabs (im working on a fix)

I'm having the same problem with the "-" key. The underscore works fine though. But like you say it makes the editor unusable. How am I supposed to type cgi-bin? I hope there is a patch for this.

Use the minus key on the keypad.
