Dear Monks,

When I try submitting a reply to a question, I get some strange url in Chrome:

data:,

and all I see is a blank page, and my reply does not show up at perlmonks.

    Something smells really funny about this report, “7 ...”   Can you effortlessly reproduce this behavior, even right-now?   And, when you say “some strange url,” exactly what do/did you see ... and where do/did you see it ... that causes you to refer to it as a “url?”

    I’m 99.9% certain that there must be something “mistaken” about this bug-report, because ... well ... because PM isn’t a JavaScript-driven site.   The HTML that generates the “Preview” button on this particular page, for example, is simply this:
    <input type="submit" name="op" value="preview" /> ... in a perfectly-unadorned <form>.   Really, nothing at all for Chrome (or any other browser) to screw-up.

    Please advise.
