Editor screwed...

Have a look at the attachment to see what I mean Wink

I managed to get this to happen (where it continuasly re-posts your message for as long as it takes the browser to stop) by doing the following;

1) Type a message

2) Preview it

3) Preview it again

4) Click back once, and it should do it.

Let me know if anyone else has seen it, or if its one of M$'s magical bugs Wink

I'm using IE 5.5 btw.

Got it to do it again (see attachment)...there is definatly something here. I was doing a modification of a post, and just going back and forth with preview/make changes/clicking back etc. Then it just seems to get stuck in a loop and keep tryign to print the post Frown

Clicking back when using the editor isn't such a great idea, and realistically, there isn't any need to do so. I took a look in the Javascript code, and everything seems to be in order. It sounds like yet another random IE Javascript bug.

I always do it...faster than clicking the main page link again, and waiting for the whole thing to load...just a stupid habit I've got into Wink
