You seem to have problems or you do have problems?

Why does it seem and what does seem?

Statements are never ignored: they error or they don't.

It doesn't matter how a particular editor (note, that's not an OS 
thing!) displays indents. If you use only tabs or spaces that's just 
fine. I'd personally go for spaces because:

1. I don't like things I cannot see (control characters)

2. I never had problems with spaces but plenty with tabs
