Have you had issues commenting on blogger blogs that have the comments form embedded below the post? Yes! It seems blogger has not tested properly the new preview your comment feature has of yet. This issue occurs when the comment form asks you to verify a word to make sure you are a human and not a spamming bot. It seems they didn't make the preview big enough to fit the word verification so it cuts off making one unable to hit the publish button.
For the time being, blog owners that wish to keep using the comment form.... simply disable the word verification and turn on the moderation feature if you are worried about spam. The other option is to switch back to either the pop up comments or the blogger full page comment option. I have no idea when this will be fixed! Hopefully soon!!!
***** UPDATE*****
those with my template who have been suffering from this problem email me I can fix it by updating the blogger comment-form code!

I have never come accross anything like that, but then, I do not use the word verification option, i do not care if I get spam, and I must admit, I have in two years of blogging only had spam message once, and that is nothing to complain about.

Saturday, October 10, 2009 9:36:00 PMit happens on custom templates that are a bit older... it's actually quite easy to fix it's just a number to update.... if you are still having the issue you can email me even if it's not one of my templates ... it's most likely the same issue
