Afternoon,

It seems a few users have lost a question/answer today for some reason.

Could you let me know the OS, browser and the circumstances which lead up to losing the question (as best you can remember that is)?

TIA.

No.
I'm not joining in then :-(
I've just answered 2 threads - on clicking 'Submit', the screen refreshes as normal, but the answer isn't there. A 'Reload' then shows the answer - is that what you meant, Ed?

I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium & Firefox 12
Did it for this one as well...
And that one...

...This could run & run...

:) thanks L-i-K.

I wonder if it is actually a FF issue. It's been funny with the site over the last few updates.

I'll see if any others think to offer their experiences before investigating further.
happened to me yesterday can't remember the thread now..but my response did not show
I lost two questions yesterday. I don't know what the 'OS' is. Don't know the term.
Mine's all right, Ed, I'm on IE9.
Sorry, just noticed that the question was posted yesterday (tues) So, yes, I have lost two questions.
I have xp professional and internet explorer.. sorry forgot to say earlier..

Oh, so not just FF.

Tilly, the OS is likely to be Windows XP or Windows 7. What does the computer say when it starts up?
Tilly, OS is operating system
Thank you. I had to turn the computer off and on to find out! Windows XP and IE
I think my questions got deleted rather than lost as they referred to the spam that was irritating everyone, earlier in the day. Someone (can't remember who) reported the spam and it was dealt with. Both my questions were answered and then they disappeared.
Morning Ed - as yesterday, still doing it - needs 2 'reloads' to show in the thread & Latest Posts...
Mine appears to be OK......OS:-Windows Vista. Browser:-FF 11.

L-i-K...Have you cleared your cache?....It might help to do so, if I understand correctly the following.:-

Ron.
OSX 10.4.11
FF 3.6.28

No problems.
Hi Ron - just done that, let's see...
Rats! I cleared my auto log-in as well so didn't see if it worked - let's try with this post...
