Thread: isspace()

What is wrong with that code?
It executes else() but wont execute if(). It just hangs.

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <cctype>

using namespace std;

int main()
{ 
   char x;
   for (;;)
   {
        cout << "Type a character: " << endl; 
        cin >> x;
        if( isspace(x) )
        {
            cout << "It's a space." << endl;
        }
        else
        {
            cout << "It's not a space." << endl;  
        }
    }
}
