    Default Anyone having typing issues?

    I've been having a problem only on PL where with typing, the characters are being dropped and, there seems to be a lag time from when I hit the key until it appears on the screen. I didn't have it happen in this post so far but, it has in some other threads. I'm also missing some of the stuff that's at the top of the page.

    It's possible you have some extensions conflicting with the editor here, it's javascript heavy so things like no.script can be an issue.

    If the things on the top that are missing are the "blogs" and "articles" then that's intended, I disabled those largely unused board features yesterday.

    Is something else going on?

    Its not doing it now... lowercase alphabet... Not just on this forum, also EEVBLOG... Also I cannot inject smiles in either forum. Seems to be every 2nd or third character. Then it just started again. If I type incredibly slow, 1 char every 2 secnds, it gets through...

    Ok since it seems to be happening elsewhere, this would imply a browser update conflicting with the software, these other forums, can you link me to them?.

    What browsers are you running?

    Ok, different forums running different software packages are having reports of this issue.

    I'm not seeing a patch for vbulletin anytime soon so please, install Chrome/Firefox/Anything-other-than-IE.

    Or just wait for the IE dev team to do something.

    OK. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't just me. Yes, I have the same thing where smilies don't show up, etc. I'll just use Chrome for the time being and see how it goes.
