Public bug reported:

I am using Mahara 1.3.3 which has been set up for us as part of our
Moodle. I am using it in Windows.

I am trying to use Mahara to allow people to create and record their CPD
records. We have set up a standard view using text box blocks which
people can then edit with their own details. However, when I try to edit
the block using configure ‘name of block’ block it brings up an editing
screen with no scroll bar visible so that the only way to move up and
down the page is with the arrow keys and if you use teh scroll bar that
is visible it just takes you down the greyed out background screen. This
isn’t going to be ideal for most users.


It happens on mine and my colleague’s computers (using IE7) but does
work normally (it opens in a new window with a scroll bar that can be
resized) on another colleague’s computer (using Chrome or IE8).

Are there some settings I can use to ensure that it is possible to edit
the content of this block.

Thanks,

Cat Shepherd
