    pbm,
    I have noticed that when you pause and spend some time within the entry of an unfinished message, it will eventually refresh and wipe out your text. There is a 900 second meta tag refresh (possibly to grab a new ad for the ad on top) and therefore what happens is it refreshes the entire page wiping out any unsubmitted or previously entered text?

    Please understand the new site in every other way is fantastic, and If you know about the time problem, you can work with it. It can, however, be annoying to be 2/3rds the way through a message...get a phone call, come back and have to re-type in the entire messsage.

    Just a suggestion, TIA Dave

    I agree but you can't have it all can you? I think it may be good it does that due to the fact that the posts I lost were WAY too long anyway! lol
    I now use Word and import it if it's gonna be long or I'm doing something else.
