And for those of you that can’t read that – I’ve typed this again in word then copied and pasted it…

What the hell is going on? For some reason trying to post anything on pistonheads the keyboard is typing backwards!

No joke, not playing silly buggers – typing in a postal field on pistonheads it all comes out backwards. Only pistonheads seems to be affected.

Are you using Firefox? It sometimes does that. Restart it!

Alternatively, use a mirror.

Tried restarting Firefox – no different, and it’s ONLY with pistonheads?!?! Can’t be copying and pasting from word all day!

call me a muppet if you want, but it doesn't help the fact that everything I type is backwards - it's going to mkae my posts rather annoying I expect! Or is it nothing to do with Pistonheads despite it being the only site affected?
At first I thought you were just joking, but if it is really happening then it is nothing to do with PH!

Do you have another computer or browser you can try? I think somebody might have installed something on your computer to wind you up.

In the mean time this website might come in handy!

Oh right. Are you sure Firefox (the process) closed completely? Try disabling Java and JavaScript then trying again...

Right, I've had a dig about on the internet and it seems to be a firefox bug, which you can cure by updating Java on your computer.

Give that a try and let me know how you get on!

OKthat's really wierd - every other site I've tried it's not had the problem, but on the reverse site it's the same LOL

I'll have a look into things my end as asyou say, would appear not to be a PH problem. Someone is going to be in pain if they've messed with my computer

It does seem to be due to a disagreement between Firefox and Java, so updating both should cure it!

If it doesn't then let me know and I'll see what else I can find out!
