Cannot post comments on YouTube.
Posted: Sat Jan 09, 2016 10:29 am
Hi Guys,
Sorry for the long post.
Did a quick search but nothing really recent or relevant found.
I'm running Firefox v20, v38 & v43. All have the latest No Script installed,
along with Ad Block Plus.
The problem is as follows in all versions...
I go to YouTube using my usual bookmarked sites & check for any new videos.
Linky > https://www.youtube.com/user/xjet/videos
If there are any I like, I log in & try to add a comment, but cannot post anything.
As soon as I try to "write" anything, the paused video immediately starts to play
&... I cannot insert a space between the words.
It comes out as per...
Heythere,thatwasgreatcamerawork.Nicelydone.
Now, the other night I tried with IE 11 & it functioned fine. (It only has Ad Block Plus installed.)
I was able to write & post my comment with no probs.
Plus, my comment remained visible after & I logged out of YouTube.
This does not happen with any version of Firefox. My comments mysteriously vanish into the Ether after I log out.
I've tried all the suggested fixes but none work.
Disabled Ad Block Plus, tried adding all the Google.com & api's etc., in No Script, clearing cache & site cookies etc, etc. Nada.
I just tried again, but disabled No Script, restarted Firefox v20 & was able to copy & paste my text from Notepad into the comments box with nothing weird happening.
BUT, when I try to write a comment, the paused video starts to play & I cannot add any spaces between the words, as per above.
NB: I do not "normally" use copy & paste, but it worked.
An eg; of the error.(Laurence235)
In this video, I can see my comment when logged in but cannot after logging out. All Firefox versions do the same.

I've also checked at "their" forum, but the people there are just ridiculous & argumentative & none of their suggestions work.

When I tried the suggested "Test" site from that link, my comments were visible, correctly spaced & still visible after I logged out.
I do not know why that site worked, when my usual one does not.
Anyone got any ideas, coz I don't want to run without No Script & I really need to be able to post the occasional comment.
Ta muchly.
