I get around this by hitting the 'back' button until I'm back at the page I wrote the post in, and hit the 'post reply' button again.

    Actually, leave that last one unresolved, I need to learn to blab less anyway...
    The area where you log in, there should be a 'remember me' tick box.
    Then allow your browser to accept cookies from this site.

    This is what saves me from logging in all the time...

    Might help you...

    Spyro, what Pappy said. Next time you log in, remember to check the "Remember me" checkbox. That will make the system remember you, you will never have to log in again. And it will also re-log you in, when your session expires, like when typing a long answer.

    One thing to remember, if you ever use that checkbox from a public computer, make sure that you log out when you are done. If you do not, the next person who would sit down on that computer, will be able to come in here, and post whatever he/she wants, as if he were you.

    I already logged myself out and back in, ticked the box and it solved my problem! Thanks - I generally avoid ticking "remember me" boxes, as an old habit from when I relied on public (university) computers, and since I don't like setting up my PC to request a password on start-up.

    Don't worry, I am, if anything, almost paranoid when I log in anywhere on a public PC these days!
    Too many people miss the silver lining because they're expecting gold.

    Gee! If I thought about that, I could have blamed someone else for the mistake I made. Oh well! I'll use that excuse next time!
