    Space bar doesn't work

    For some odd reason my space bar doesn't work when posting in the regular forums (it's working here). This is not a problem except for LH Forums. I'm using Chrome if that helps. Exiting the post and then going back into to edit fixes the problem until it occurs again.

    If I quote a post and reply a line below it, the space bar doesn't work in Chrome on my Mac. Started about a week ago. If I back up all the way to the quoted section and then start typing, it works fine. Odd. Didn't seem to have any problem just now typing a reply without a quote.

    This is a problem widely reported by chrome users on another forum I frequent. Always when quoting in replies for me.

    Have to hit enter after the first word to get any spaces, or go back and add them.

    Annoying. Assuming this is going to get worse before it gets better and both vbulletin and Google need to get it figured out.

    Using my Samsung phone with Chrome I often find I can't type anything but the occasional symbol or punctuation mark when quoting on some of the other sites where I am much more active. It is very annoying. I hope vbulletin figures this out quickly.

    Sounds like the fix is you don't use Chrome, huh?

    The fix may be to leave vbulletin behind -
    like Audiokarma and TivoCommunity (and a number of other sites) have done ...
    I don't think vbulletin has done much in the way of updates themselves ...
    from what some other site admins have said ...

    It was screwing up again on my first reply today, after inserting a carriage return between the quoted post and my reply. Deleting back to the quoted block allowed me to use the space-bar and I haven't been able to make it not work properly since then.

    Hmmm, I (exclusively) use Chrome on a Dell laptop running 8.1.

    Preview looks good ( formatting wise ).

    I'm wondering when ( & where in the reply process) is this problem supposed to manifest itself.
    - ( ie; after the Editor does it thing, Closes & actually Posts the Reply ?? )

    Guess I'll find out soon enough.

    Nope, that's not it.

    My guess is your NSA is simply data-filtering ( with Googles help ) & not quite clever enough to replace the intercept ( as originally discovered ).

    It seems to be a recent issue. I haven't changed anything on my end since when I was able to reply with spaces.
