    Default Unable to post, yet logged on...

    I don't know how it's possible, but sometimes I cannot post anything, while it's obvious that I'm logged on. My name is visible on the site, with a green dot in front of it on the threads that I wrote on before.
    When I log in a second time, I am able to write postings.
    Can anybody explain to me why it isn't possible the first time?

    After an improvement in logging on about a week ago I have been unable to get onto the site since then?

    Is it possibly to do with my security software??

    Huh? I thought an Ipod was only for listening to music?!?
    Thanks for ansering anyway.
    O Geoff, would that be a possibility, the security software?
    Thanks Phil, for mailing Andrew.

    I could post from my Ipod but it would be a pain. The Kindle is a little better but the Ipad is much easier to use for posting comments but i prefer the actual keyboard of my laptops or desktops for posting comments as I make too many typos anyway.

    Have you tried different browsers to see if that makes any difference? I think it has something to do more with having a poor connection and occasionally i lose the connection altogether to this site. really frustrating if you have just typed a nice response and then to have it disappear altogether.

    Whether I'm on this site or some other site, over the years I have learned it is always a good idea to highlight and copy whatever you have typed before hitting post. At least, your message is then in memory and you can simply paste it back in. Doing that has saved me more than once.

    This has happened to me several times, either when I inadvertently hit the Reply to Thread button, or hit a keyboard character or characters of unknown configuration. Not so bad for a short response, but for the longer, time consuming, and thoughtful posts, this is demoralizing. I, too, have learned to save these texts before actually posting.
