  At work, I’m more or less stuck with IE8, and I’m having a devil of a time trying to write a blog post. Whether I use the visual editor or the html editor, the cursor seems to jump around a lot–when I unindent a blockquote in visual mode, when I delete lines in the html editor, and at various other times. I’m posting at hyperpapeterie.wordpress.com.

  I’m wondering:

  1) Is this a common issue (assuming there’s actually anyone else using IE8 w/wordpress )
  2) Is there any way to work around this aside from posting via email?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi. This is a known issue with IE8. Possible workaround here:

  Another workaround would be to use an offline editor, such as Windows Live Writer.
