Moodle 2.6

Issue:  Assignments to be submitted by online text.  Invariably circa 5% of submissions show a blank page with the number 1 placed in the top left portion of the screen being the only visible entity.  For these students a search through the logs indicates that they did submit a response and the number of words in their response  is shown.  Curiously, in one case, the online text submission originally was visible, then when I revisited the submission the following day, it had changed to 1, then the full response  reappeared again on a further visit, and  then it returned to 1 on the next perusal.  

Anyone else out there have a similar issue and do they know how it might be resolved.

Can you take a look/post the HTML behind that page with a 1 in it?

Hi Marcus,


Please see attached shots of relevant section of HTML for a normal response and an abnormal response of 1.  Apologies but the two images are merged.  Each begins with: <pclass="MsNoSpacing...    Essentially, ten questions were posed with very short responses required to each.  In these two examples, both students did answer the ten questions posed.
