    Posting problem

    Again I am having posting problems. Short posts in open threads are fine, but longer new posts are presented with a page saying that the page reset while posting and trying again gains the same rebuke.

    I have tried two different browsers, different forums and even did a reboot--to no success.

    Oh---and the post has nothing at all to do with Trump

    Dave, just a note, I get that message if I try to post a url that is a bit to long.

    In fact, I just found that the problem was being caused by a "bad" url that I had embedded in the text.

    Just saw this. Glad we know what causes it.

    I can't post any URL's. Have not been able to for quite a while.

    Just trigger the globe icon to the right of the big A, delete the “http//“ and copy in your url, or bracket with your own “[url]” manually.

    That's what I finally figured out also. Couldn't post any links for a while.
    This is your mind on drugs!
