Hi Tommy..Sometimes when I type (usaully a long winded response) I click post when done and get a message: Page cannot be displayed...Instead of clicking the back arrow (you will lose your post) I click the red x at the upper right and exit...I then find my post in tact at the bottom of the thread.

P.S....Happy birthday my fellow Libra or is it now Scorpio???

Happy Birthday!

The easiest way to never lose a post:
just before clicking the post button, click inside the text box (where you wrote your post). Push Control-A to "select all", then push Control-c to "copy" your post.

if your're post doesn't go through or gets timed out, just reply again, click in the text box, and push Control-V to "paste" your reply, and try again. :)

learn this well young padiwan. ;D You can use this trick all over the web.

Tommy, Happy Birthday to you.

I've written a few posts, trying to put into words how I'm feeling and then the bastard computer loses it.  I hope it wasn't too important and next time if it is, remember to copy before sending.

Have a great day.

Try to enjoy your birthday in spite of minor irritants like computer glitches!  When you're in a better mood post the exciting things you did today!

leatherman has great advice for almost everything you write on any web site: aidsmeds,gmail, myspace, etc.  Getting into the habit of copying everything you write is the hard part.  Some folks compose messages in a program like MSWord or a plain text editor and copy that to the forum post.  That doesn't work well for me since I proofread and edit what was pasted and sometimes copy and paste it over the original document and proof and edit again, stuck in an endless loop.  I send a fraction of the email I begin and find myself saving an unfinished movie review for IMDB or Amazon.com or a comment for a forum knowing the odds are small the document will ever be finished.    I'm a lousy writer but a pretty good editor.

Happy birthday!  I look forward to your post-birthday post.

;D sounds just like me. It's easy getting caught in that loop. LOL I must have hundreds of "un-sent" posts to these forums. (ooo, the flames I would have gotten if I had sent those. LOL)



Hey TommyJ. What a birthday for you though, huh? Hear anything from your parents yet? Hopefully, they're safe and just can't get in touch with you yet. ;) With some luck, I hope you'll get a great bday present hearing them on the phone, safe and sound, sometime today!

my family lives out side of san diego .  they have been evacuated !  i don't know where my parents are

Hey Tommy,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Now, we have a tradition here. or at least I do.

It is the Birthday Swat! Let's see, that would be 47 swats, plus one to grow on and a grope to give us hope!  ;) ;D

HUGS,
