If I hold the SHIFT key the post will *not open!* How do I OPEN a post to
reply while holding down the shift-key? How do I stop it from JUMPING back
to the top of the message as we're trying to read it and perhaps trying to
reply????
Is there any way to FIX this problem so we can READ and REPLY to posts
without having them constantly jumping back to the top of the message?
Thanks
