Hi,
When I click on the Preview button and then again in the Design editor loses the cursor, I can write but can not see the cursor. I came to that as you click to a different place than the Iframe editor then it works and appears to back the cursor. I did also go to edit my own but it will not come. The error occurs in the latest Firefox, I checked the Opera is working properly. The same error is on your side in the demo.

Hi Dan,
Yes - I opened a ticket and it was Telerik that replied with the answer:

Hello,

The following table contains the Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) properties and corresponding values that, if set, cause an HTML element to have layout:

CSS property	Value
display	`inline-block`
height	any value
float	`left` or `right`
position	`absolute`
width	any value
-ms-writing-mode	`tb-rl`
zoom	any value

If at least one of the above properties is set to an HTML element will cause it to have a layout and to edit it the user should double click on it and the resize handlers along with a border will appear. The hasLayout is an IE feature that cannot be disabled. It is also not supported by the other browser vendors. You can find more information about this browser functionality in the following MSDN article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533776%28VS.85%29.aspx. You will experience this behavior in all DHTML based competitors' editors as well as in the standard editable IFRAME / DIV elements.

The only possible way to stop the hasLyaout feature of Internet Explorer is to make sure that none of the above CSS properties are applied to the HTML elements in the content area.

All the best,
Rumen
the Telerik team

In my case, I had some of these properties set on my "p" tags in CSS. Changing them instantly fixed the problem.
Good luck.
