I lost one post last night.

Does anyone else keep getting a box on the screen saying that there's a problem with the script on this page and asking whether you wish to continue running it?

I click YES two or three times in one session whenever this box appears.

A few nights ago I lost a post to Constance in the China thread. It hasn't been a problem since then.

^ I've never lost any posts here (as far as I know) but, when I get that message outside this forum, I invariably press NO. For what it's worth... geek

I have been told that using firefox can cause problems for some sites . I had some problems with firefox as regards internet banking.

a 'Draft' button is a good idea.

and no more lost posts here either.
