Issue, when i reply with a quote the space bar does not work. No it's not my PC as it does it on chrome 3 different devices, and fire fox and IE on 2 other machines.
testing: testing: testing:
hopefully when I press reply with quote the spaced between the 3 words above will still be there. The space bar works just fine so far.
you are correct sir, the spaces appear WHEN I TYPE THEM, they are lost after I submit the reply. Likely a space savings algorithm they implemented to removed unwanted spaces.
Just so others understand what you're not seeing that you wish to be seeing, when you typed your test it looked like this:
Code:

But when you post it there is only one visible space between words. That is because HTML automatically eliminates repeated whitespace. That's because frequently in HTML there are tabs and all sorts of characters in the HTML that are more for formatting the HTML and have nothing to do with how it should render on the screen. Two words separated by 20 spaces renders the same as two words separated by a single space.
In order to force extra space the character entity is used. So if you wanted your test to render correctly you'd do something like this in HTML:

Unfortunately the forum doesn't really provide a way to insert non-breaking spaces (that's what nbsp stands for) that I can find.

Yes, this has been happening for a couple of weeks. You must type your reply on the same line as the quote and then hit an "enter" to move it down to a line by itself.
Strange. But it worked for you in the last couple posts right? Do you find it's still happening to you sometimes?
