I HAVE TRIED TWICE to type up a rather involved post on sensors and ewar,a nd each time I click post, the page resets and ALL MY WORK IS LOST. I've lost two hours of my life because your post button doesn't work> i'm given no error message, and the text is completetly gone and irrecoverable> WTF is going on?!

I'm on Latest Windows 64vit using internet explorer 9.08112.16421. My computer is up to date.

Obvi this, much less time consuming, smaller post works. So it must be something about the post length?! or formattng. I did use parenthesis in the "Subject:" line if that makes a difference.

But NO error message. The post was near the word limit, but under.

anyone else experience this?

OK, I found the problem.

There is some kind of restrictions on Character types in the title. When you disobey these restrictions and hit preview or post, the next screen that shows up is a blank message screen. THERE IS NO ERROR MESSAGE AND ALL TEXT IS LOST.

Please fix.

Best regards,
