Predictive text not working when typing on discussion boards.

Hi everyone, I'm new here and hope someone can answer me a question.

When I post a message on the comments pages of some online news sites such as The Guardian in the UK, I find that the autocorrect on my Android keyboard doesn't work. Even more annoying is that after I have posted the comment if I return to the site to view my post I find it is littered with pieces of code such as   even though these weren't visible when I typed it.

The problem does not occur when typing SMS messages, emails or anything else, it only happens on certain comments pages.

I am using a Nexus 4 and the problem happens with both the native JB keyboard and with SmartKeyboard Pro.

Any suggestions?
