    Firefox - Reply box not clearing


    Don't have this issue with Chrome or IE. When using FF (latest), any reply to a post on any thread here does NOT clear after posting the reply. I clear cache, history, cookies, everything and still "remembers" last reply entry. Is it FF or forum? (or me?) Befuddled... *Confused

    :)

  2. Spinning Blue Circle while typing an e-mail in yahoo mail

    My wife recently had this problem on her Mac Air using Safari & Yahoo Mail-lagging cursor,

    spinning wheel, to the point it made the email virtually useless. I never have had it on my iMac.

    I decided to use Firefox, and it worked.

    FIREFOX TO ACCESS YAHOO EMAIL

    (Clears up lagging cursor, spinning wheel)

    · Download Firefox

    · Open Firefox

    · Go to Firefox preferences

    · Select “Search” from the left side menu

    · Under “Default Search Engine” select “Yahoo”

    Close Firefox

    · Reopen Firefox

    · You are now in search mode in Firefox

    · Click on the big blue arrow for “Search”- auto takes you to Yahoo,

    · Click the “mail” icon in upper right corner-takes you straight to Yahoo In Box

    · So far have no problems, opening and replying, composing and sending.

    Firefox as default browser

    Thanks for the reply.

    I'm using Firefox 3 but anyway, I unchecked the "check every time" box and now the problem is gone and Firefox remained the default Firefox - Reply box not clearing :)

    If I choose 'Reply with Quote', it works normally, if I choose 'Reply to Thread' button, I have to click 'Submit' twice! *Confused

    Might be FF

    Test #2. If I go out of the thread and back in, do reply with quote it's fine. Weird!

    Firefox - Reply box not clearing

    I'll just let it be for now. It's a buffer issue somewhere. If it persists a long time, I'll feedback Mozilla and/or Tenforums. Thanks for the testing, Edwin.

    It might be a forum site setting,
    when I choose 'Reply with Quote' I'm in the 'Quick Reply' UI,
    if I choose 'Reply to Thread' button I'm in the 'Go Advanced' UI.

    Should paste all this info in the 'Site Bugs and Suggestions' thread. *Wink

    Thanks John, I figured that.

    EDIT: Hey! It didn't make click 'Submit' twice!
    'course, my site prefs are probably reset now since I cleared cache etc a bit ago.
