When answering a PM the space bar on my keyboard will not work. I tested it in other apps, websites, google searches etc and it works fine, just not in a PM reply on the RPF.
Question Space bar not working

It has to be something local to your computer because it works with all of my computers and we have not heard from anyone else. Are you able to try a different browser and what browser and version are you using?
I thought it might be Chrome also....iHeartRadio just decided not to play anymore with Chrome. Uninstalled Chrome, still won't work. Works with IE....of course :/
I use Chrome as well. Seems to be happening when quoting another member, I haven't tried it in PM yet, but maybe it has something to do with prior text in the box? For example, note that right now, if I type above the quote, it works fine.

So it looks like it's only happening with Chrome. We'll see if we can figure out how to resolve it.
Thanks, Montagar.
Still happening with PM's. Not a huge deal, but just an FYI

I just tested it using Chrome and was unable to replicate the issue you are having. I tried replying with a quote in both posting and sending a pm. I am running version 53.0.2785.143 m of Chrome.Thanks, Montagar.

Trying to replicate this issue quoting in Chrome (also tried it by replying/quoting in PMs). Are you guys still having this issue? I am not seeing it.
I am running Version 55.0.2883.28 beta (64-bit) on Windows and not able to replicate. Will try on a Mac.
Using Chrome version below, and still replicating at it work. I'll try again when I get home on my desktop to see if it continues there too, or if it might be some weird setting. Same thing, if I hit "Quote" and type above the pre-inserted text, like I am now, it's fine. But if I start typing underneath, I get no spaces.
HOWEVER, I did note that if I click "More Reply Options" it clears up. So for me at least, it's only if I just click quote, and then try typing underneath.
I'm not sure if that helps or not, but that's what I've found so far.

Same problem here. If I try to quote, no spacebar.

So... it seems this is specific to 54.0.2840.71. Let me see if we can find the issue.

Found that I have the same issue.
Quoting and typing immediately underneath the quote means the spacebar doesn't work.
Typing a bit, hitting the return key, and going down a line bypasses the "no space" zone.
RPF is the only site where I have been experiencing this.

Glad its not just been me. At first I was ready to pop the space bar off the keyboard and try and figure out why it wasn't working. Glad I didn't do that.
