Problem posting to C-D using Firefox? - About the Forum - City-Data Forum

Just wondering if there’s a problem? This morning I enter a “post quick reply” and my screen comes back with “post positively”. I check and the post did get entered but its not what I’ve normally seen occur.

Me too. I didn't think the first one went through so I posted again..........went back and I had two posts

Happening to me and the page just stalls...It's not showing the post going through. I have to open another window to see the post has indeed went through..

I'm glad you posted this. I've noticed it today, too. Every time I post a quick reply, I get a page that looks like this. That page sticks and never advances forward to the thread.

It'll probably help the City-Data troubleshooters fix the problem if we speak up about which browsers we're using.

Mac Firefox user here.

[edit] Also noticing it on a different machine running Firefox 3 for Windows. On that machine, the symptom does not appear when posting with IE7.

So, it's probably a FireFox Issue? That's what I'm using.

It did almost the same to me a few days ago minus the post positively thing.

I didn't notice this problem late last night, it seems to have started this morning for me.

I'm trying the IE v 9.6 on this post. I used the FF v? on the last post and it failed.

I entered this post and it worked fine with IE on the same pc. Looks like a FF problem maybe?

I think so, too. I just updated the title of the thread to be more specific and grab the attention of others having the same issue.

I just finished rebooting and now I'm trying FF ver. 5.0 again, and my OS is XP Prof. ver 2002 ser pack 3 if that helps.

It failed again when using "quick post reply" button. I was able to come back and edit this post for the updated info.
