If you type slowly like I do, I have found that the site times out after perhaps 3-5 minutes and when I go to post it makes me log in again and I loose what I typed.
So, just copy what you typed and if it has timed out, after you log in again you can just paste your text back in the block and hit submit.
I was so frustrated with this for a while I stopped posting here. I would type this long detailed response and blam - GONE!
Now I just automatically always highlight my text and hit control c before I hit post just in case.
Hope this helps others.
I didn't know where else to post this because the treehouse section is closed to all but the moderator.

that might be a problem specific to your internet browser...

anyway, most people who have experience with internet forms do this automatically Wink

tip: you can use ctrl+a to highlight all text - so just ctrl+a,c before hitting "submit" Wink

Hi all....

I closed the Treehouse section because it was getting ultraspammed.

I have found that older versions of Internet Explorer have been seriously crashing lately on the web, especially when typing stuff. I do a lot more writing on Mozilla Firefox now.
