Text Area - Netscape 4 Limitations

If you are using Netscape 4, you might come across a situation where it will not let you type in the text box for your story. This is caused by a bug in Netscape 4, that limits the number of characters in a text area to 30,000. If your story text is longer than 30,000 characters you will have to use Netscape 6.x or Internet Explorer 4.x or higher.
