Hi all. First of all, this post is NOT directed at any one individual. Second, there is no need to post a apology... this has happened to most of us at one time or another... even to some of us veteran members.
Sometimes when I submit a post or reply, I receive an error message that gives my the impression that my submission was not accepted. If I back up and resubmit the post, what happens is a double posting of the same message. Double posting is really not a big deal but can easily be avoided. When I receive this error message, what I do is to simply open a new window and check to make sure that my post was in fact submitted correctly BEFORE resubmitting it.
I have no idea what causes this error to occur in the first place.
Yours,

Dear Jim
This has happened to me on a number of occasions. Thankyou for the info on "what to do". I will make a mental note of this for next time.
Cheers, Angie.

Jim,
It just happened to me for the first time. I thought I'd let you know. No double post because I backed up and reloaded the page. The post went through even though it said it didn't.

| I'm having problems posting replies - it takes me to the forum home page instead of the reply box. |

So when you hit the -reply post- button, it takes you back to the forum's index ?
Maybe not hitting the button squarly and it is going on the index button, which is right next to it. ????  not sure.

It does it whether I hit "quote" or "reply".
It then takes me back to the forum index. If I got from there to the thread and hit it again, it works.
Even to post this reply, I hit "quote", was returned to the forum index, clicked on this announcement thread again, then hit "quote" a second time.
After all that I was taken to the reply box and typed this.
This has been going on for a few weeks.
I'm on a new MacBook Pro and very computer literate, it's got to be a bug in the software. |

I also got a error message when posting the above, but it did post.
My posts also never "quote box" even though it is written correctly. |

well, I'm totally NON- computer literate.  I have no idea. I know when we had alot of spam and people doing spam pm's etc. we had the problem of the "error start then- well, for me it did.
So maybe it is a bug- we'll have to see.
(Jim- maybe Leo ???) Though I know he probably wouldn't know any more than us.
starseed- Any suggestions?
