I tried a search but didnt have any hits. whenever i try to create a thread or reply to a thread, my iphone wont let me type in the text box. I can write in the title box though when creating a new thread. any idea why this happens?

I think you have to turn off fancy GUI Editor.

Yup same here.

Now that I got one, I really realise how much we have to make NS more friendly for that. I'm obsessed with the idea of an app or something...

We'll look into it this summer.

Yeah the only problem is that if you switch off the fancy gui, it turns it off for all other devices you use for the forums, ie your computers, so i cant really live with that but thanks for the work around. I wish NS kept track of ip's or whatever so you could have separate settings for different devices.
