Anyone know why recent attempts at posting have been met by a 'Service Unavailable' window ?

I always do a preview before a large post, just in case this happens, then in case the back key doesn't work, you have a copy of your posting.

Good thinking Batman - the only flaw in this otherwise sound argument is that the Preview button attracted the same window [n]

No odds - hitting refresh will resend the data

Mine always pops up in another window, in Opera and Firefox. [?]

Yes but if you're going to get a service unavailable you're just as likely to get it with the preview window

Ah yes, but you can just press the preview button again and hope it works that time. Better than losing all your text when the back button doesn't work. [|:)]

As I say, pressing Refresh will ask if you wish to repost the data and then do so - so nothing lost.
