Backspace Function - Highlight to Delete Text
Hello, Lately, when I highlight text/content and press the Backspace Key, the word doesn't erase. I can't type over the highlighted text either. The cursor just moves to the place before the text I'm trying to type over. The Delete button does work though for my work purposes, I really need the Backspace Key function. Thanks in advance. -- riceandfries |
