@badp - what device/platform? In not aware of either, but we can look.
(as in: neither turning grey nor clearing on entry is known to me, and I use mobile a lot)
 
7:43 AM
@RobertCartaino fixed btw (the bug, not you)
 
 
3 hours later…
10:56 AM
@MarcGravell Opera Mobile 10
Turbo or not makes no difference
 
that really sounds more like an Opera Mobile issue
 
I don't experience it with any other sites, however.
Could it be that I'm tapping the screen in the wrong place to dismiss the onscreen keyboard?
Although once a message hasn't greyed out, no amount of further textbox focus events turns it into gray again
 
I don't think we even catch focus in/out events for the input box
 
you do catch text change events, though, I guess.
 
I'm trying to reproduce in the emulator
not successfully, though
 
11:03 AM
just chat normally
also loads up the emulator
 
works just fine
 
I don't know, I'm sure I'm not making this up :)
although obviously it doesn't help you if you can't repro it
 
oh, I believe you :)
 
let's see if the onscreen keyboard makes it easier to trigger the problem
it surely makes it easier for myself to get aggravated.
I probably tap in the wrong place to dismiss the keyboard; that triggers the problem
not quite sure where it is I tap though. Stupid fat fingers.
 
11:10 AM
okay, trying on the device itself with the stylus.
because this problem just is that annoying.
you painstakingly type your message for a minute
then bam! it's there, gray, mocking you
and have to start over.
I guess, however, that for now it's just
status-norepro
closes Opera Mobile, defeated
 
the only time we disable the input box is when you tap on "menu"
 
11:27 AM
@balpha Next time, I'll try tapping on menu then :)
