Until Scott can get the monkeys to fix the website problems, here is a tip on replying to a post.

I've noticed this after doing it twice myself, and caught on.

When you try to post a reply, and it crashes, or gives you an error link, just close the window, and open a new window for the WIX message board. Go check your posting of interest, and your reply should be there. The posts apparently go through, but look like an error on our end. If you use the "back" key and then try to post again, then a second or even third identical post will pop up.

I posted twice this morning (unidentified T-6 frames) and did two edits to test my theory from past errors. Otherwise, people will continue to do double and even triple posts.

If your quick when you do an accidental double post, and nobody has viewed it yet, there's a delete button at the top right of the posting that lets you get rid of the extra posting.

Anyone else got an idea on this?

I'm just glad you've cleared that mystery up! For a while now I'd suspected that I'd put on all thumbs or had suffered a brain cramp-

Great post, I swear it's happened to me on several ocasions and I thought I was having a "Senior Moment". Reminds me of the time I told my X-wife that "all of that Salt Peter they fed me in the Army is finally taking effect".

Actually, when I posted this topic, it vanished, but did appear on the board when I looked later
