Forum Bug
-
On a few occasions I have lost my forum reply on submit. This seems to happen when I spend more than 5 minutes or so on my response. So now I copy my responses to notepad before posting in case my data is lost - this has saved me as recently as this morning!
Anyone else experience this? Perhaps a browser setting?
Thanks!
Sincerely,
Dan B

Happened to me and at least 5 others that complained about something very similar... it's probabely the session that's ending on the server or something like this (haven't worked with asp. net in over a year).

Yes, there is a timeout. Don't know if it is configurable.
Usually when I need more time for an answer I copy the reply to the clipboard, cancel that reply, open a new reply, paste from the clipboard and hit submit. Not nice, but it works when you remember to do it.

I find that if I get the blank after submit that if I hit the back button and then submit it will work. I'm using Opera.
Note that I at least copy it to the clipboard just in case. I've been burned on it too.

Jim P.A little bit of this and a little byte of that can cause bloatware.

The words "slow typers" comes to mind here

Slow typers? BAH! Even with having had five operations on my right thumb I can do 50+WPM if I want! It's the thinking speed that slows down... 🙂
This happened to me yesterday. I've used Word to compose messages before for my blog but I hadn't experienced that here before. Now I know better.
And hitting the Back button didn't do anything for me, IE had already eaten my wonderful prose.
