Odd board behavior when adding new posts...
« on: May 08, 2007, 05:39:02 PM »
Every once in a while (I'd say every five or six times I add a reply to a thread), I have to click on the "Post" button three or four times to get the thing to work.  Is this a glitch in the message board software, or an issue with the browser on my computer and mine alone?

It's not a major issue, just a bit of an annoyance.

Nope not just you. I have the same problem.  I am beginning to wonder if this site is ran on ASP.  That would explain that.

If you wait for it to load entirely, then click in the message window, you should be ok.

I don't know how many times I have tried to type a quick message and hit enter to fast.  The post would be blank!

But no, you are not alone.

**Guess it is not ASP. Kinda obvious when I finally payed attention to the php icons in footer of the page.**

Hopefully, with the move to a faster site, these problems will be less prominent.

It seems to have gone away.  I changed browsers (to Firefox) and also changed my firewall software, so one of those may have been the problem.

Firefox does seem to cure many of the web's ills!
