Cant post with Chrome, great difficulty with every other browser

[Hooahguy]

For some reason I cant post on the forums. I get a tan box (Im using the guild skin) whenever I try to post, and I cant edit either, regardless of the browser.
Is it a problem on my end or the forums?
It was working fine a few hours ago.

Nothing was changed with respect to the post/editing system over the time span you indicated. However, the new 'advanced' editor does run on javascript so if it's simply not showing up perhaps you have disabled javascript or otherwise made another change to prevent it from running.

I'm seeing this as well. Firefox/NoScript. I get a writable edit box when I disallow googleapis, but then of course the editor buttons disappear/don't work. When I allow googleapis, the edit box is non-functional.

Edit-> this is as of today, it was working fine yesterday after the main upgrade.

Can you both double-check the time frame for this issue? There is a bug with the current editor that makes the custom bbcode (i.e SPOIL, etc.) buttons not work properly. I installed a fix for this system which involved switching from compressed javascript to uncompressed javascript. However, I made that change at about 8pm EST on Monday. Both of you say it worked fine yesterday, which would indicate the problem started after my fix, not at the time I installed it. Are you sure about that?

The last post I made prior to seeing this problem was 14:33 EST yesterday. This was done at work (where I am now), I do not know if I would see this problem from home.

What browser versions are you using?

[Hooahguy]

Yea I can post with lightweight.

[Hooahguy]

Well, the problem came back.
Darn.

Using the lightweight mode now.

EDIT: and now the problem is gone. This is getting annoying.

Right so same thing here as with Hooah..... switched to lightweight to post this. I'm not really willing to stick with lightweight...... it seems light. Any known fix yet or even the cause? I am using Chrome as well and certainly am not desirous to use another browser especially..... *shudder* IE.

Does the text editor on this page work for you? If it doesn't load at first, try refreshing and disabling stuff like adblock and noscript.

For all Chrome users, we have made a setting change to the server that might help with your problems, though we're not sure. Please try everything, including cache clearing, and let us know if that has changed anything.

ok i am here to say it does work!

I changed absolutely nothing (stubborn angry little SOB i am)

and all of a sudden it works as of about 5 minutes ago. 1hour ago it did not work however.

also from the very beginning of when i had this problem the text editor did work for me no problems.

I can't post in Opera. The reply box is just totally white. I'm posting this in Firefox.

I'm pretty sure this, and most of the other problems mention in this thread, are caused by the browser not properly loading javascript (which is what runs the new editor). Update your browser, clear your cache, and disable any noscript addons you're running. If all else fails, switch to the basic editor in your profile settings.

Browser is fully up-to-date. Reinstalled javascript. Emptied cache. Set posting mode to basic. No dice.

Hold up. I think it was my content blocker. All good now. :)

From what I can tell, it comes from updating Java.

[robbiecon]

Still no luck for me. Not working in chrome at all. My iPod is the only thing I can comfortably post on, but I don't have wireless net during the week.

I've tried updating java, but that isn't working :(

Is it all browsers or just chrome?

[Hooahguy]

Using Win7 and chrome, and even with Java updated, it works fine for me, no problems.
