The visual editor suddenly stopped working (3 posts)

    I was working on my blog this evening, and everything was cool. Suddenly, the visual editor quit - went blank after a save. The code is still visible in HTML view. When I click back to visual from HTML, the source code is still what shows. There are no toolbars at the top of the visual editor either.

    I thought this might be something about the particular post, but I'm seeing the same behavior on every post I edit. I thought it might be something about Chrome, which I usually use to update the blog, but it's not working in Opera either.

    This is most puzzling. Ideas, anyone?

    I'm still talking to myself here I suppose, but I thought I would post back what seems to have been the cause. I installed mod_pagespeed on the server the other day, and I believe its cache may have been responsible for the difficulty. I placed an .htaccess in /wp-admin with the following code:

    <IfModule pagespeed_module>
    ModPagespeed off
    </IfModule>

    The visual editor resumed working properly when I did this.
