What does your chatbar look like: white or black ?

If it looks like the 2nd one (black), that means Battlemode is enabled.

1. to disable it so you can type a message, press Enter.
   Pressing Enter again when the chatbar is blank will switch back.
   
2. to disable Battlemode completely, press Esc, click BM/Shortcut Settings, uncheck the box "Enable Battlemode" and click OK.

and if that wasn't the problem, maybe the hotkey.lua/lub file does not match your client date. =[
