Forum's reply editor being weird

So I've noticed something a little weird going on in the editor and I don't know how to get around it.

I'm trying to paste a bit of code from Acrobat's JavaScript into the syntax editor (Which is a bit crappy anyway but that's another subject)

It keeps doing this to my text:

This of course is not ideal, I cannot see what my text looks like in the syntax editor, pasting the text in line by line doesn't work either as it just does that but to all the lines individually.

There's a lot of code there and I'd much rather not re-type it by hand as the whole purpose is to search for a mistake I may have made in the code I wrote, writing it again would be pointless as I could make another mistake and then the answers will be irrelevant due to the inaccuracy of my information.

This didn't happen until today but then again I haven't pasted any text into the forums for some time, is this a new feature or a bug?

Either way its impossible for me to use the editor as is and I'm wondering if there is a workaround.

Thanks for your time.

Any help is much appreciated.
