I typed a responce to a thread...

Then I wanted to start another thread...

I did this too fast, and got the "90 second" message.

So I clicked the back button...and my original message was gone! This was a small thread, so I retyped it easily, but I have had this happen before to me when I have typed out larger posts.

Someone said that this site is "cached"? And that it stores what I type. How do I get what I originally typed back when this happens?

 

That used to happen to me on the "old board" - but it's never happened on the new format.
Could be really maddening if a long reply was there.......
Mabye there's something you can do with your internet options to correct this?

 

This happens to me on my home computer all the time... but it never happens on my work computer....


Must be some setting I have different or something...

 

If you are ever typing a long post, type it in Word or something. A few times ill be typing a reply and ill hit backspace to correct something when the cursor isnt in the box. Go ahead, try it.

 

I think it has something to do with IE's settings or how the boards cookies are installed on your PC...
