Many times I have entered an answer to a post which is not showing any answers only to find that when I submit my answer there are already one or more answers previously submitted. How can I avoid this?

Type faster! ;-)
You can't. You just have to be quick to answer. It happens to me all the time.
i don't think you can avoid it if half a dozen peeps are typing the answer at the same time :-)
It also depends on the speed of your broadband.
^ See what I mean :-)
It happens all the time to everybody. He/she with the fastest fingers will get there first. Get those typing fingers all greased up, farr xx

Thanks to all. Ready...set...go!
i wouldn't worry, I often see duplicate answers in crosswords hours after people have already given the correct answer. I find that funny

a good b/band speed certainly helps. My old laptop would take about a fortnight to answer !!

You are absolutely right elliemay, broadband speed is a major factor
It may also be worth refreshing before you start typing, as maybe your laptop/browser only updates every 30 seconds or so
