I have written three replies/posts to a review, quite lengthy, and when I click "post" I get a message saying a post must be more than one character and everything I have written is gone? Any ideas?

That was from internet explorer, I am now logged in on Google Chrome to see if it makes a difference, any ideas would be appreciated, thank you!

That post finally went through, it must be an IE problem, the back arrow will not work either on this site with IE.

More times than not if you try to type text before the quote in a post you’re replying to you’ll get the “message too short” prompt. However, with a little finagling, you can get your text to stick before the quote of the post you’re replying to. But, to insert your text after the quote is sure fire.

Also, if you’re gonna type long, arduous text, do so in MS Word (or its equivalent) first and save, save, save. Then simply copy/paste into the post you wish to create or respond to. If something does go wrong posting, you have a copy of your work to resubmit.

In addition; word programs also have spell check so you don’t come across like an idiot such as I!

Thank you both so much. Drummer, you always come across as well spoken.
The copying helped already as IE still was screwy and I am back to Chrome.
Never use IE!
Chrome or Firefox are better....
