I have an iPad that I use regularly to edit posts and such, and I have found that it takes much less time to expand the editing window than to scroll to the bottom of the editing window (which is a very slow process).

Is it possible to add a feature here to have an instant expand to the end of the text? This would be especially useful when adding new Q and A in my Larfleeze Answers thread. This would be a very simple solution that would make a huge difference for those iUsers out there.

If it is not physically possible for the software to to able to register where the end of the text is or whatnot, can you just make the window expand more than it does? I have no idea about anything releTed to programming, and I have no clue is this feature is even possible, but it would be very awesome if it could exist.

Thank you for listening to my rambling =]

I use my iPhone for posting alot. Moreso than any other device actually. Quoting and editing take some getting used to and come with plenty of challenges. I think that it has more to do with the programming of the device than that of the website though. Then again my computer skills are nowhere near what they should be for this day and age. So I could be wrong.

I know that a lot can be done on the end of the device to make it easier, but since Typhon does not work for apple (at least I image that if he did, he wouldn't need the donations =P), so he can do nothing on that end of it.

As it is, I can edit pretty freely, it is just much easier to have the entire editing window expanded since scrolling is not as easy on the ipad as it in on a pc. It would just be awesome if I only had to hit the button once instead of 50+ times (it seems anyway), to get to the bottom of the Larfleeze OP.

Ok I see what you are saying now. That would be alot easier actually. If the edit window were a page instead of the box.

Yup. Much, much easier.

I'll check the site on my ipad later and see what can be done. My company (day job) is actually making an ipad app for out client, so I'm learning a lot from that and may be able to bring some of it over to the 'realms.

My phone handles calls and (clumsily) text messages.

Get off my lawn.
