Jonathon Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Hi Larry I've experienced this a few times, but it is monumentally more upsetting when you have a large post. But I'll write a big post have several blocks of code and it will just chop most of the message away. If I had to guess I'd say it tends to be when there is a use of [ code ] blocks. But I can't be sure. Obviously this isn't your fault, but I thought I'd let you know. Thanks Jonathon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HartleySan Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 I just experienced that myself for the first time yesterday in the following post: http://www.larryullman.com/forums/index.php?/topic/2146-buttons-not-opening-page/ And like you said, Jonathon, my post got cut off right after a code block. I've had similar problems in the past too with losing parts of posts, so I've gotten into the habit of always copying and pasting my entire post into a text file before I hit the post button, in the event that something like that happens. Also, I like to copy the whole post to a text file because it's easier to edit/spell-check and format code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
margaux Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 I've also experienced similar scenarios. If I recall properly its when I'm posting a long response with several blocks of code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathon Posted March 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 I sadly forgot to copy it before posting last night which annoyed me as it wasn't the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Sorry about that one and all. I have to do a minor upgrade of the forums, maybe that will fix the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
