Lomag, there's one small bug since the upgrade that's been "bugging" me but I didn't say anything about it until now because I thought I'd be able to adjust to things. I'm now a bit frustrated by it so here goes:
After typing a reply, after you add an attachment or add a link to the reply, the entire message is "selected" (or highlighted). This never used to do this.
I didn't think it was a big deal until recently when I typed a long reply to something and wished to throw a link to another thread at the end of my message. I used the "insert link" button on the reply page which brings up the window for the URL of the link (as always). I entered in my URL and pressed enter to get to the "title of the webpage" window (as always) and typed my title and pressed enter. The result is that the link is inserted like it should be but the entire message is now selected (highlighted in blue). Why does this matter? Well right after adding the link, I hit the return key to continue typing and bingo, my entire message was gone. (Any key would have wiped things out, not just return.)
Anyone else frustrated by this new "feature?"

[/quote]I have had very large problems from Belgium. I try to add attachments that are not overly large and many different things occur. My first attachment typically attaches. Then, when I go to do the second, it often takes the place of the first. Trying to get around these issues I sometimes try to preview my posts. I am sure that that is when the duplicate posts appear. Once the duplicates start appearing whatever was attached to my real post disappears only to reaperar later. With respect to the duplicates, some have the attachment and some don't. I seem to never be able to get a second attachment attached. I am going to try again now, form Bruges, with very small files. I have left some of the detail out of the woes I described above, but I am sure that you get the gist of the issues.

Hi Lomag:
If interested, check out posts #14 to #17 in this thread. The issue there is similar to the one I mentioned when I said, in post #3 of this thread, that duplicates starting appearing every time I previewed a post [after editing]. The current problem does not appear to have anything to do with attachments; mine probably didn't either even though I was dealing with attachments at the time the problem arose.
