    Ok I just wrote a big message lol and what happened, i wanted to check the source b4 i hit the post button, thinking that like the forum it would open in a new window, i read the source and closed it and lost my message :-( can we prevent this tragedy from repeating itself?

    Dela, did you try just clicking back in the browser? The one thread were I have two posts, I posted the message, went some where and clicked back too many times and thought that the message didn't get posted. So I click post again and it add again. Thus two posts appear, that may be a solution to your problem, but a potential problem on it's own.

    no I mean on news comments, their is a link to the source of the news. On the forum, an external link usually lead to a new browser window, but on the newsw comments it used the same window and i didnt realise and closed it when i was finished reading!. All i was doing was verifying what i said!
