Just been composing a nice long reply to a post and decided to look for an Emotie that wasn't on the displayed list. Kaspersky (my AV software) helpfully asked me if I wanted to allow the popup. I clicked "yes" and my nice long, carefully typed, reply was erased ...

But I'm sure this thread doesn't need my advice anyway.

B****y computers. I'm off to bed.

I hate to break it to you, but it would have come back if you hit "Back".

Not in Firefox it wouldn't have.

I only use Firefox, and it works all the time.

Never works for me. It's one of the things I most dislike about Firefox in fact. Using version 3.0.1 here, what about you?

Same here. Apparently, TGC is one of the websites that it doesn't work on.

But, it does on just about every other site.

I have never had the contents appear if I use the back button in Firefox if it was submitted with the FORM tag.

I don't know what I do, but sometimes I'll be typing away and hit a hotkey or something and my page will go back a page in history. I'll be typing away, a whole 5 paragraphs into something on Facebook or here, and I'll do that. Makes me want to scream!

No it doesn't. Just takes me straight back to the Geek board or whatever. I'm using IE7.

ON SMF and PHPBB forums if I hit back and return to type my message it's there - it really seems with TGC that I lose a message and it's bloody annoying, especially when I've written a long useful post and for some reason it don't work or I accidentally open a new link. So now whenever I make a long useful post I copy it and reserve a Notepad window to paste it into - so if something goes wrong I haven't lost what I've just written.

You sir have the moral ambivalence of a mutated shrimp!

Exactly what I've resorted to doing - when I remember.

It does that on pretty much every forum I go to when I'm using Safari.

95% of the time, I use:

<CTRL><A>
<CTRL><C>

before submitting. It takes 2 seconds and is a life saver.
The other 5% of the time, I forget and that's when it generally fails

The reason I don't rely on that is that I often want to copy and paste something else into the message.
