I'm having trouble with editing text in mobile Facebook's comment fields - so far, I have only found this to be a problem on m.facebook.com comment fields in Android Firefox. Elsewhere, or in Desktop View, or with a different browser I don't have this problem and I can move my cursor around and make selections and edit text fields no problem. On m.facebook.com comment fields: once I start typing, there's no going back except for using back-space, which is a nuisance! Not being able to move the cursor also means no selecting, copying, pasting, etc...the only options are to type onward or delete backward.

This makes comment writing a little bit more of an art for me, but really it's a nuisance. I otherwise prefer Android Firefox so I'd rather find a way to fix this than switch to a different mobile web browser. Any ideas on what could cause this and how to get around it?

This is a Facebook bug. We know about it. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1266547

It is best for Facebook to hear about this from users. To report this to Facebook

  • Open Firefox for Android
  • go to https://m.facebook.com
  • tap the Facebook 3 bar button (top right)
  • scroll to the bottom and select Report a problem
  • Tap the "select a product" menu
  • Choose news feed
  • Copy and paste "Unable to move the cursor when replying to Facebook news feed items in Firefox for Android. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1266547" or write your own message

The same problem. After 6 months nothing has been done? I don't know if this is a facebook bug because I don't have the same problems in Dolphin, android browser, Opera.
