Trouble leaving comments......

I was just informed by a very smart person that I directed the question of "why can't some people leave a comment here on my blog. I've had lots of people try unsuccessfully, and just give up?"
 
Here is the response...let me know if it works for anyone.

It's more of a browser issue. Firefox doesn't work with this embedded format, and Safari on an iPad is wonky. Just making this comment on an iPad is frustrating if I need to correct something I wrote above.

Even now I can't go up and add that I use Firefox on a Windows laptop and Safari on an iPad. The best format seems to be the pop-out, accessible through settings/comments. I hope this helps - its been a frustration of mine for years and I have loads of experience with it.

Adding that I agree on Internet Explorer, but choose not to use it due to security issues. Chrome consistently works with this embedded comment format as well, but I don't always remember to launch Chrome since I'm so used to Firefox.

The easy answer is to change your comment format to pop-out. In my experience it works with IE, Firefox, Chrome and Safari.

I use Chrome and I never have a problem here.But there are some blogs where I have to switch to IE.

I dont know if this will help anyone or not but a couple months ago I was having the same problem using only my gmail (google) email address and was only able to leave comments as anonymous. At the time I was not using google chrome.
So I downloaded google chrome and have not had the problem since.
Just had to throw my 2 cents worth in the mix. haha but really that's the problem I had with leaving comments on blogger.. I know it totally sucks too when you want to leave a comment and cant..

I never have trouble leaving comments when using my Dell PC, but I find it very tedious leaving comments from my IPad for some reason. If I type a wrong word and want to correct it I can't move the cursor back to the location of the error. I have to Preview the post and then click edit to go back and correct. What a pain! So... I try to do blog posts from my PC. (I like using a keyboard better than a touchpad alphabet anyway.)
