A question about direction...
Posted: 02:19 pm Dec 23 2004
Say I get a notification of thread response.
I click on the provided link.
I go to that thread...but NOT as a 'signed on' person.
If I 'login' in from that thread, after login I am sent to the front of the forum...NOT back to where I came from.
Why?
I noticed earlier today that even though I WAS logged on (obviously..I was writing a reply), when I got done with that reply and submitted it, I was taken to a 'login' screen. Luckily, I anticipated what was going to happen next. I went 'back' copied everything I'd written to the clipboard, forward to the 'log in' screen..and sure enough! I was then directed back to the thread...but everything I had typed was gone!
I could just paste it back in, though.
I presume this is because I spent too much time on the reply? I 'timed out'?
Oh...and furthermore...
Merry Christmas!
