Brian Burke (aka brian41chevy) [ View ] [ Email ] [ Car Ads ] [ Blogs ] New Lenox, Illinois (815) 485-2989  There is a fine line between hobby and mental illness

Hey guys whats going on? I have just responded with two lenghty responces for the 350 trans blog and when I hit add comment it disappears. It doesn't show up in the blog and then it says to respond log in. I AM LOGGED IN. What gives?

I wonder where they go? There is a fine line between hobby and mental illness [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] New Lenox, Illinois Charter Member since November 2004   Posted by orphans2  -  08/16/2007 10:18 PM I have had it happen a number of times but not much lately. Last week I had typed a response to a post only to completely lose it when I accidently hit the tab key. The program does not forgive mistakes very well. If I am about to type a length post sometimes I will type it in my word processor than cut and paste to the thread. That way if I screw something up I stll have my document to try again. orphans2 [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] Stewartstown, Pennsylvannia Charter Member since November 2001   Posted by brian41chevy  -  08/16/2007 10:37 PM I give up. I have responded THREE times to that trans post in the last 1/2 hour and each time I hit add comment it goes bye bye. Then I have to relog in. Why doesn't it happen on the other posts I'm doing?

Amazingly enough brian , all three will probably show up later making you look like an idiot.

Eriq gave me his phone number for maybe a fix. Lets see if this one works......

But then when I hit the back button, I noticed 2 Phoenix Specialty Coatings "replies" that didn't come from me. One said "29 Model A Ford" in the comment and the other said '32 Model A.' Hmmmmmmm ... I'm not into Fords. And what those have to do with painting is beyond me ... but I deleted 'em. LOL Phoenix Specialty Coatings [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] Greenfield, Tennessee
