Thanks for the replies. I'm using FF3 on Ubuntu. I can't seem to figure out when this happens, it just goes crazy occasionally. I love editing online and wish Katana would see some lovin' as it has the potential to be great (open source it guys!!) - how cool would autocompletion be??
Installing Rails locally every time Ubuntu changes versions can be a real pain, so I stopped doing it and just used Heroku online, but I guess I might have to do a local install and get with using git.
