I have tentatively moved to Firefox and am currently liking the tabbed browsing. Much better than the crappy experience I had with it a few years ago.

Anyway I have a problem: when making a post if I want to format something with BBcode even if I highlight the word the [] thing always appears at the very bottom of the post. This happens regardless of where the cursor is on the page. Does anyone know how to stop this, is there some plug-in or Options menu and I can select? It is really annoying. For those not using Internet Explorer, just so you know, in Explorer I can highlight a word press my formatting option and the formating []'s will appear on either side of the word instead of me having to move them from the bottom as currently happen in Firefox.

The second problem is not really a Firefox issue but more of BBcode issue. Does anyone know if I can make a list in one post where each item in the list is a link to another post below in the same thread?

I know javascript works on the webpage to do something like this by bringing you to the top of the page or when you quote someone you can be brought to their post via a post="1234" code. Can you do it without having a quote? You can move up and down the page in html using anchors but I can't seem to get them to work inside a post.
