Unable to Type in Text Box

It worked just fine yesterday but today I found myself unable to post in the text of my game. My player was able to. I attempted refreshing, closing my browser and reopening it, clearing cookies and cache, clearing the Chat Archives from the Settings tab of the game page and... still nothing. I am using Windows 10, Chrome as the browser. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

A game's Creator is often able to fix issues with their Text Chat by Clearing the game's Chat Archive from the Settings dropdown on the Game Details page of their game (note: not Clearing your Current Chat Log from the My Settings tab of the in-game Sidebar). To clarify; were you clearing the game's Chat Log (in-game) or Chat Archive (out-of-game)? If you were clearing the Chat Archive out-of-game, could you please carefully work through the first three steps of our guide to Solving Technical Issues ? Step 1: Make sure to use the right browser Please check if these issues persist when using both Chrome and Firefox. Step 2: Ensure that there are no extensions/addons interfering with Roll20 Please disable all add-ons/extensions and anti-virus programs. Step 3: Clear your cache If none of the above succeeds, please thoroughly work through Step 4 . (Don't forget the complete Console Log!) Thank you!
Thanks, Silvyre, I appreciate your time and the advice. I did try that and unfortunately it didn't work. I am creator of the game and I tried joining as a player and rejoining but that didn't help either.

Hey Dani, I have to questions for you so I can try and help you further. If you'll answer them for me I'll see if I'm able to get you typing again: Is this happening in just one of your games, or is it broken in all of you games? If it's just one game, which game? What do you mean by you are "unable to post in the text of my game"? When you type in the box the text just doesn't show up? You hit enter and the text just doesn't show up in chat? Is it like this for all text in the game or just for text chat?
Thank you for the response Phil! It was just for typing in the text box- the cursor didn't even appear but I could type in the text boxes, for example. It seems to have resolved so maybe it was just a momentary hiccup.
