Why does my space bar not work when sending messages; but works when entering this post?
The space bar also hasn't worked for me for quite a while now when replying with a quote to a thread. I have to quote the person, close that box and then copy and paste that quote into a new window. Only then will the space bar work. Or don't use the quote button and just type your new message. This was happening before this new format.
If we're making a list....the word wrap function in the reply box doesn't appear to be working. It will jump to the next line in the middle of the word..hard to read/edit when 1/2 the word stays on the upper line.
All in All....so far it's impressive !!
If you encounter the non functional space bar problem simply click on the "Go Advanced" green button on the right hand side down below the window and you will return functionality to the space bar. This bug is a real pain in the "BAR"
At the bottom of each post is a "reply with quote" button. At the end of the quote,move your cursor down a line or two. When you type your first word if the space bar doesn't move,use your mouse to move the cursor one line down,then back to where you were. That should restore the space bar function. It seems to be a problem with Google Chrome's last update and it's a PITA.
My understanding of the spacebar issue is that it's a browser bug. That's why the upgrade did nothing to fix it. It happens to me too, I'm using Chrome. What are you using?
The quick fix is to hit enter then backspace, that should get your spacebar working again.
I use Firefox and it works fine for me.
