Not sure what happened there.

Does it happen on all edits or just that specific one?

[FN-GM]

Well, it did it on that post and this one. But it seemed to clear up by the end of the night. I will keep trying.

Just had it happen to me too, will try to repeat it on this post.

 

Edit to test!

 

Edit worked fine, seems to be when the post is located next to the advertising banner.

I've had this happen as well but it is intermittent. It also happens in both IE7 and FF2 with about the same frequency. A page refresh puts it all right though.

The weird thing is I can edit all these post in this thread for example without issue.

Hmmm the joys of AJAX

It seems to happen when you have two posts one after the other and then go back and edit the first post. I think it may be something in the AJAX code getting confused as the two new posts seem to be rendered fine client side then the edit stuff comes up in the right place. Its just when you commit the changes and it tries to update the post that it seems to get out of line.
