    Are you replying to a thread that is already there or trying to create your own?

    Do you get any error message from the forum software?

    For a long post, it's often best to prepare it in a separate program or text editor and then copy/paste it into the posting box.

    I've never had that problem with composing a long post, but other people have.

    Hi Fermi.....

    It was a 'new thread' post by me. I typed it all out,then when I hit the button to enter the post,I was directed back o the 'log in' page ! It did this twice. Is it time limited,when you are typing a new thread post or something ??
    The only thing that I did differently,to get this post to 'take' was that I 'previewed it first... Hmmm.

    Hi, this has happened to me a couple of times. After you log in again, you get a blank page, I was really concerned as I had written a really long post, however, when I use the 'go back a page' thing in the internet until I get back to the message the new log in works when you submit post again. Hope this helps and it's not to garbled. :rotfl:
