Anyone else with Firefox/Tech Talk issues?

[tomzarbo]

Last few days I've had a terrible time posting replies to posts.

I'll write something and click 'post' and it will just spin, and spin. I let it go for over 10 minutes yesterday and it just spun, wouldn't post it. Of course I clicked one or two more times over the next 10 minutes or so to make sure it wasn't 'locked up' or something.

Then I open up another tech talk to find that it did post, and so did my other two... although the original tab where I first tried to post the reply was still spinning...

That's just in Firefox... Edge seemed to work okay.

This has happened before on occasion, but it's all the time for the last few days it seems.

Not meaning to complain, just wondering if anyone else is having similar issues.

Does the same thing with new posts it seems..... This /|\ post is still spinning in the other tab after a few minutes.
Maybe I need to update Firefox. I'll see if I can do that.

Just hit F5 after you push the post button to reload the page.

+1. It's become second nature to me to hit F5 after posting

I experience the same issue, but with Chrome, not Firefox, and not recently. It has been this way for a while.

The same happens to me, but only occasionally.

I have the same problem on occasion but the wait just seems really long when it's only 30 seconds to a minute I'm estimating.

Hmmmm, F5 after I hit the post button? Let's give that a try.

Well, F5 did work

Thanks for the tip!

I've posted twice now, once in this thread and once in Wolf's Tandems thread, and both of my posts appeared in less than 5 seconds.

Another chrome user here that has the same experience frequently. I'll keep the F5 thing in mind.

Have never had a problem in FF

I have the same experience with chrome. I've learned not to watch the pot boil....

No current problems posting w/Firefox on a DT, but . . . it's an "old" DT still running Vista !

The problem is with the PartsExpress forum software, not with your Browser. I access the internet with three different devices, each with a different Browser and I experience the same problem as you.
