Greetings,

I have just encountered a very unusual problem. While I was able to do so only hours ago, for some odd reason, I am suddenly unable to scroll horizontally in the index.html file for my website. Vertical scroll works just fine.

I thought that it might have something to do with the fact that I just installed the latest pre-release build -- 10.5 (3227) -- about an hour ago. However, only this one index.html file -- and a copy of the same -- have this problem. If I open other HTML docs on my site, I don't have this problem. Both vertical and horizontal scrolling work just fine.

Please note that these are files on my local hard drive. I am not trying to edit them via FTP or anything like that.

I even tried copying the contents of the index.html file into a new document and saving it, but the problem is likewise carried over to the newly-created file as well.

I also tried zapping gremlins, but that didn't help either.

Any ideas why this would suddenly happen?

Also, even if I use command-right arrow key, the cursor will not advance to the end of the line . . . or at least I can't see it, because the horizontal scrolling has stopped working.

I need to get this fixed ASAP, because now I have an HTML tag in my index.html which I can't remove -- because I can't access it at the end of the line -- and it is messing up the format of my site's home page.

Thanks to whoever can offer some assistance.

You say you have been able to copy and paste to create a new file but it has the same symptoms. Try using markup->utilities->format to reformat the copy (use plain). This will preserve the original version. Now try editing the reformatted copy. Also Check Document Syntax on the original to see if it spots any problems.

If you want to remove a tag, why not just do a find/replace? If the tag exists more then once, do a find until you get to the correct version than do the replace with blanks.

Note that I know this does not find the cause but you are asking for a Quick&Dirty solution to fix the file and either of these may meet your needs.
