Telerik RadTextBox becomes readonly after selecting a Chrome AutoFill option - asp.net

Wondering if anybody has seen this issue before or fixed it:
When the form loads, I can manually type into my address field (all fields are RadTextBox) with no issues
If I start filling the form from the top, after I enter the first few characters of my email address - Chrome provides a list of email addreses for me to choose from, If I select one - it fills in the rest of the form with the information associated with that email address.
So far so good.
When I now try to edit the subsequent fields, I cannot - they have become readonly!!!
In trying to solve this, my instinct is to open Chrome developer tools to see the difference between the fields that work, and those that don't.
But lo and behold - as soon as I open developer tools - the problem goes away!
Any ideas?

All Thanks to Stefan Sedich!!!

Google Optimize: Unable to preview experience. Please make sure to enable cookies and restart the browser

I can't preview my Google Optimize experience. Google optimize throws below error:
This happens to me quite often too. The suggestion Google gives is wrong. Clearing cookies and restarting the browser does not fix it. Sometimes rebooting does, but that's a huge disruption.
What I found to work pretty reliably is to end the preview (dropdown), then click the EDIT button to go to the editor. Come back to the setup page, then try Debug again. Debugger should work again.
This is how it worked for me:
In Chrome go to Clear Browsing Data (chrome://settings/clearBrowserData).
Make sure you select checkboxes Cookies and Cached images and files.
Submit the form by hitting the button "Clear data".
Go to preview experience.
For me it started working when I gave the Google Optimize plugin access to all pages (not just the page running the experience).
I think I've found a fix for this. Go to the top right corner of chrome (the three dots) Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies & other data > and add the url in the bottom section called "sites that can always use cookies"
Example
There can be multiple reasons.
Most obvious: enabled cookies like mentioned by others. should help
If it does not work even when cookies are enabled and you have restarted the browser then more chances are that the issue is in the Experience/Test that you are trying to preview. This can be due to:
A preview is already running in another tab. Turn off preview
2.You have set the experience to run on certain URL patterns and you are trying to preview on a page that does not qualify the criteria.
You have set some Audience rules which are not being met fully. For example: You have set the Audience Device type to mobile and you are trying to preview on a Desktop. Although Optimize will load the preview in a mobile mode but it will not be able to run the experience properly.
In my case the issue was due to wrong device type. I hope it helps.
It's also possible to get this "Unable to preview experience. Please make sure to enable cookies and restart the browser" error message if the content you're trying to modify doesn't exist when Optimize tries to modify it.
I had Optimize set to modify on page load, but the page I was working with was a form, where the text I wanted to modify didn't exist until I clicked through to the second step of the form (still on the same URL).
I was able to just run the study instead on another similar page that had all the text loaded at the start. I'd guess that setting Optimize to trigger from a custom event triggered upon loading the second step of the form instead of "on page load" would also have resolved the issue.
If you are using chrome then:
Click the context menu in the browser toolbar to the right of the
address bar.
Choose Settings.
Select/Search the "Security and Privacy" section.
Choose "Cookies and Other Site Data" Ensure that "Allow all cookies" is selected.

Wordpress Contact Form Jittering & Not Submitting

I don't understand what's going on - used several different contact form plugins and it's the same problem every time. Whenever the form is filled out and I click submit, the page acts all jittery and freezey and then keeps popping back to the top. Anyone have any advice on how to troubleshoot this problem? Don't really know how to debug and such....
http://www.adivineweddingmadeeasy.com/contact/
I spent a minute looking at it but have not found a definitive answer yet, but it seems like something is up with your form control, particularly as it is defined within each field. I was able to get the form to behave when removing all of the wcpf7 form control classes. Then again, simply removing them would not fix your problem because the form would not function as designed.
In case you want to try checking it out yourself, try right-clicking and selecting 'inspect element' or 'inspect' from the drop down menu. It won't mean much to you unless you understand HTML but it is a start in terms of troubleshooting.
You easiest solution is trying a different form application to see if it works.

How to hide "Messages" section in Phabricator

I am using Phabricator for a long time. It was working fine until I mistakenly press some key combination on my keyboard. Now it shows me "Messages" section all the time (Code review mode, tickets details mode and etc.). It cuts a lot of useful space.
I tried to find answer on 'Phabricator User Documentation' but no success.
Does anybody know how to hide "Messages" section?
I am using Safari 8.0.7 on OS X 10.10.4.
Use "?" to bring up keyboard shortcuts for that screen.

Flex - invisible text until mouse pointer moves outside textInput

We have an application running flex sdk 4.5 and have recently encountered an issue with textInput fields which we have not been able to reproduce on our end for the better part of a month now.
Here are the symptoms:
Users opens an input form which contains several input fields (combo boxes, calendars, text inputs, etc)
User clicks inside a text field
Users types (obviously!)
** Nothing appears in the text input - we have validators on some of these fields and they do kick in properly (ie. user sees red box around textInput disappearing)
User moves cursor outside of text input field and text appears
Give or take, this is the test case we've been provided. We have been unable to reproduce this and I'm reaching out to see if anybody has heard of issues like this in the past.
They are running our flex application in the following environment:
Windows XP SP3
IE 7.0.5730.13 (locale = en-gb)
Flash Player 10.3.181.14
Upgrading either of these components is not an option. Installing the flash player debugger is not an option either.
Now we've setup a pc exactly the same way as they have on their end and still haven't reproduced. So we're really stuck at this point :)
Any suggestion is greatly appreciated. I'll provide any additional info needed.

Feb. 2nd 2012 - Update
As I noted in my comment reply to shaun, it seems our customer was more or less precise in their description of the issue. We ran a webex session with them this morning and actually saw the issues first hand.
Here's what happens:
- User loads our application via its url
- User is able to input data and pretty much do any function for a 'random' time period
- All of a sudden, the issues start (there are more symptoms than just the one I originally mentioned):
1. Users type in text input fields and they won't see the text appear until they move the cursor out of / into any other component (could be entering an hbox, exiting a text input field, etc)
2. Combo boxes behave more or less the same. They can drop them down, but then the mouse wheel no longer refreshes the list. It actually scrolls in the background, but until the user moves the mouse, the list does not refresh
3. We also communicate between the server and client via an amf channel. The events make it to the client, but again, they won't see the screen refresh until they move their cursor.
So basically, the application still seems to work, but the screen is no longer refreshing. Could it be something to do with an invalidate / update of the display list that doesn't kick in? We'd like to get them to install the debugger version of FP, but that doesn't seem to be an option.
Another thing to keep in mind: they have a VERY bad internet connection. They average around 1-1.5mbps (megabits) which is enough for our app, but I just thought I'd let you know.
We learned that they also use a Citrix presentation layer to deploy IE 7 to the end users. We've received confirmation from the end user that even if they launch IE on their workstation (not through citrix), they get the issue also.
Another note is that we've seen no errors in our web server, jboss or application logs...
So that's the update I've got... anyone have more thoughts on this? We've more or less discarded the fonts being an issue at this point since the issue affects more than just 'fonts'. Is everything on the screen not updating anymore.

DataDynamics Active Reports entering extra spaces in long email addresses

I'm using Data Dynamics Active Reports to generate some reports on our website.
Action: User runs a report on user accounts (this contains an email field) and Exports to an excel file.
Issue: If the email is relatively long, extra white space is added in the field.
Has anyone else had this problem? If so, what did you do to fix it?
Here, I found a solution to hide blank sub report space:
Add group header and footer
Check the condition
Make Group header or footer visible false/true
After some research with DataDynamics and GrapCity I found that this is a known bug they are working on Case 00023478.
To work around it I made the TextBox larger that the email fields were bound to. It's a sucky work around but it's all we have until they fix this issue.
The issue has to do with wrapped text in a texbox that forces line breaks in the excel export.
EDIT:
The better, but still sucky, workaround is to make all of your textboxes alignment "Justify". This removes all the spaces from the text on export to excel no matter what size the box, but everything is now justified...
