[resolved] Enter moves cursor down

This happens while editing both HTML and PHP files. So far it is not reproducible.

What happens is suddenly the Enter key moves the cursor down the page. Nothing stops the behavior. The only way to get the Enter key back is to close PhpED and restart it.

Anyone else have this problem?

Could it be that I've accidentally turned on a feature that I'm not aware of?

I have ran into this "problem". It's actually most likely because your are editing in "insert" mode.

When it happens, try hitting the insert key on your keyboard to get out of insert mode, then all should be fine.

You should also notice that while in this mode, typing before any existing text overrides it, instead of moving it over.

The problem I seem to have is I don't know how I keep accidently hitting insert, i'm not entirely convinced that I am hitting it either.

(Although, I do use insert, delete, home, end, and pgup/pgdown alot, so accidently hitting it is definitely possible with me.).

I wish there was a option/setting "never allow insert mode".

Hope this helps!!

AFAIK, There is no indicator visually in the editor that shows insert or normal typing status.

Thanks Skalir,

I remember thinking the same thing. I thought I checked that, but it happens when it is late...real late...and fatigue clouds my recollection of what really happened. But I did just get a new keyboard and the Insert key is right next to the Delete key.
