A few minutes later I returned to the page, and the textarea was suddenly visible!

I can consistently reproduce the problem.

What version of chrome do you have? What extensions are you running?


Also, 1.6.3 is quite old at this point. This issue doesn't sound familiar but so many things have been fixed in the 1.6.x releases that I can't remember them all. If possible, I'd recommend upgrading to 1.6.13

I've experienced this issue. It was a regression in Chrome, and upgrading Chrome fixed it.

Confirmed. Upgrading to from Chrome 18 to 23 fixed it.

Thanks!
