Hi SJ and welcome to our community
I just now conducted a little test using IE. Mine allowed me
to resize with no issues. I know you said you could reproduce it
both on the work and home PCs. Here are some questions:
1. What version of Internet Explorer are you using? (I'm
using version 7)
2. What recording mode and options were you using?
You ask if there are any ideas at the end of your post. I'm
not being snide here, but I'm sure it could sound that way. Just
wanted you to know it's not intended that way.
Fom what you have posted, it would seem you have discovered
your own workaround. For starters, I'm not sure I'd ever be trying
to resize a window I'm recording, but I'm sure you have your
reasons for doing so. And as you have seemed to discover, before
you resize the window, just make sure you click outside the text
field before resizing it.
Cheers... Rick
