Sounds like a browser issue, the text boxes in threads are standard textarea's, just like say the input box on hotmail or gmail... He shouldn't have any issue with threads that he wouldn't have anywhere else...

Code
<textarea tabindex="1" cols="65" rows="10" class="form-input" id="texteditor" name="Body"></textarea>
