      Findings

      This problem seems to be only reproducible in Wiki Markup Editor and in IE 8.

      Confluence Version Remark
      3.2, 3.2.1_0.1, 3.3 Reproducible
      3.0.0_0.1, 3.1 Not reproducible


      Workaround
      1. Turn on Compatibility View on IE (via Tools > Compatibility View). You can add your Confluence to be always displayed in Compatibility View at Tools > Compatibility View Settings.
      2. Switch to Rich Text editor or Preview, then switch back to Wiki Markup editor.

            No more wiki markup editor, so closing this as obsolete.

            Workaround

            1. Go to Custom HTML (accessible via http://<confluence-path>/admin/viewcustomhtml.action) and add the following in "At end of the HEAD":
              <style>
              #markup textarea { width: 100% !important; }
              </style>
              
            2. Save it
            3. Flush Confluence and browser cache. By right, this should be forcedly applied to all Confluence Spaces.

            We face some issue here with IE 8 and Confluence 3.5.13. Vertical Scroll Bar shown in the middle of the screen no matter if youcreate new page or edit existing page. Attached please find a screenshot. Switching between views does not help here. Any idea what else I could do?
