(but I only use IE for an internal work-site that uses ActiveX stuff, phew)

Just out of curiosity I notice MS has decided not to support ActiveX in Edge.  I wonder if MaxThon does or will continue to support ActiveX?  I used it back in v 2.0 when unsigned AddOns were still allowed.  So I am not aware of the current state of MaxThon browser vis a vis ActiveX Controls, BHOs etc..

Edit: A quick search found a fix in the MaxThon 4.x changelog for "automatically switching to Retro Mode" when encountering ActiveX.  So evidently it is grandfathered in.  :)

It may be a browser issue -- what browser are you using? Have you tried chrome?
Darn, it is indeed most likely browser related, tried before with Firefox and Pale Moon (a FF derivate), but in Chrome there is no such issue :o

In IE it is even worse, there it includes the line numbers and inserts an extra blank line between each line :'( (but I only use IE for an internal work-site that uses ActiveX stuff, phew)

Examples:

I'll have to take my complaints elsewhere, I guess :-[ ;D
Thanks for the feedback, didn't expect that.

Might it be an extension?

Just tried Firefox with extensions disabled, but the result is the same :-\
I'd call it a bug, but hey, who am I to judge this 'feature' ;D
