Doh, simplemenu broke the cursor in textfields and textareas again. Fix: change position 'fixed' to 'absolute', which changes the behavior of the menu but doesn't break textareas. The absolute positioning is also much friendlier for the Advanced settings which allow placement of the menu anywhere on the page.

The fixed position is very useful, but unfortunately not enough to compensate for the missing text cursor. Is there any hope of resolving the conflict?

Firefox 3 :-)

Seems to be working in that version ;-)

Yes this should be able to be fixed when I get around to rewriting a lot more of it in jQuery.

Ok, I changed changed this to position:absolute per Nate's suggestion.

While at the top is useful, it does indeed break basic browser functionality which can be very annoying/hard to get around. Note, the cause of this is the rendering issue in Firefox 2, which is fixed in Firefox 3 alpha -- this feature shall return when that day arrives :-)
