I play an online RPG. When playing the game a typing through the chat, I attempt to switch to another tab. When trying to type anything in the tab, everything being typed is ending up in the chat box from the game. This is happening every time while connected to the game and does not make a difference if it is a new or existing tab that I am switching to.
