IE8 Bug: Jumping Scrollbars

Here is the new bug that is very popular in IE8 explorer. This is often termed as Jumping Scrollbar. The problem  occurs when text is appended at the end of text area then the scrollbar automatically bounces to the top. This is really annoying when user is in middle of typing something. Now several patches are their on web to resolve this issue. This problem occurs when the width of the text area is given in  percentage terms in CSS. The simplest solution to this problem is provide the width of the text  area in in absolute terms instead of percentage terms, like 750 px. Hope Microsoft will resolve this issue soon.
