How did you manage to submit this without a submit button?

This one had one...maybe Ed gets first dibs on the buttons....

But this answer box doesn't....
Hi Pasta,

What browser are you using? If it's IE9/10 you might need to click the torn piece of paper at the end of the address bar.

By disappeared do you mean that it isn't clickable, or that it's really just not there?

Hi Ed...I use a Google nexus tablet,so its google I guess.
The word 'submit' is not there...but it seems if I tap the area where it should be,I can still submit. Weird. And its not on all threads...it is missing on this one...but it could reappear next time I reply.


PS...just tapped the space where 'submit' *should* be....and it suddenly nappes red.
I was having the same problem at home over the weekend. When replying to a post the 'submit' button was ghosted off. Did have that problem with submitting a new question though.

not sure if its a browser thing, as I'm at work and its fine.
sorry 'DID'NT have that problem with submitting a new question though'

How odd Pasta. We'll try and do some testing - we'll just have to get someone to bring in their nexus tablet, so bear with us!
I have this problem sometimes. The submit button is there but it is very sometimes and not others. I have to keep bashing the place where it should be.I use a Toshiba Tablet.
Sounds like the data that shows it didn't get to the PC ?!? How's the Net link ?
Pastacake is an American, Ed....like her indoors.....need I say more? :0)
Have you tried http://m.theanswerbank.co.uk/ on the tablet? It's optimised for touch so should be easier regardless.
Testing from android 4 device. All seems fine....
Hi Pasta: please let me know what version of android you're using on your nexus tablet.

We've tested v2.3 and v4.2
I'm IE9 and my button is fine :-)

(see that? it's poetry)
I'm using IEv10 at home and the 'submit' button isnt clickable. Works fine in Chrome though.

Oops...sorry I've not looked at this in a few days..work and all that.
@Ed...I'm on 4.3 android.


Yikes...just saw this on my last answer....''.and it suddenly nappes red.'' Weird predictive text!

My Kindle Fire does this too. It is mighty annoying too. I typed up a long answer to a Q the other day but the submit button kept ignoring me. It only seems to be on this site. My PC has no problem at all submitting answers.

Kindle is mainly for playing games under the duvet - computer games that is.
"I'm using IEv10 at home and the 'submit' button isnt clickable. Works fine in Chrome though."

Click the torn piece of paper beside the web address box.
