 * Hey,
 * I got some problems with the text editor in wordpress 2.5. When I’m writing my
   page in the visual editor and I switch to the html editor, it whipes out all 
   my text, forcing me to start over again. This did not happen in 2.3.3!
    In addition,
   the visual editor seems to be too big and overlaps the save and publish button(
   screenshot: [http://www.rbaoreven.nl/wp-content/uploads/wordpress.JPG](http://www.rbaoreven.nl/wp-content/uploads/wordpress.JPG)).
   So, I cant use the visual editor since switching makes me lose everything. Help
   would be appreciated!
 * Regards

 * I am having the same problem. I have already posted 3 times to get help and no
   one has responded. Sorry for your trouble, but glad to know I am not the only
   one.

 * Can someone please reply to this?

 * I have fixed mine. A moderator named moshu told me what to do.
    Deactivate all
   plug-ins and then go back and reactivate them one by one to see what causes it.
   For me it was WP Super Edit. Also, make sure you refresh the page when you go
   to “Write” after each change in the plug-ins. I hope this helps. Sincerely, David
   Collins

 * Okay, thanks, problem solved.
    Deactivating all plugins (with the TinyMCE Advanced
   plugin) and reactivating all (including the TinyMCE Advanced plugin), solved 
   the problem. By my understandings, this is weirdness, but as long as it works,
   I don’t really care.
