Posting problem in forums

Just noticed this yesterday and thought it was me doing something wrong.

When I post a reply in any of the forums and I want to return to read other topics in that forum or go to another forum it won't let me go back.

I have to scroll to the top of the page, logout and get back in.

It only happens when I post a reply or start a new topic, not when I am reading other members posts.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Hi Doug. Good to see you here again. ;)

I've been posting continually throughout the forum update. Can't say I've noticed this problem.

Hi Doug it is good to be back.

This never happened before and now since I posted this reply it will not let me leave this spot.  I will have to scroll up and logout and then login.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

I just noticed at the very top of my computer screen several buttons I never notice before.

I just hit "Compatibility View" so now I shall try to exit this post.

If this works I need a "Raise".   :)

Sorry Dave, I have no idea. I think Doug has Vista so assume it's something to do with IE8.

That's odd. I use the current version of Firefox & never had a problem posting in the forum.

Good afternoon all... :)

Got the same problem again even tried the "Compatibility View" several times.

I now have to Log Out after posting a new topic or reply and then Log In. 

These electronic gizmo"s  hate me I tell you.  ::)   :P

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Doug. Let's go back to the beginning. Instead of clicking the Back button on your Browser after posting a message try clicking the Home link on the forum menu.

Tell me if it works for you. That's how I've always done it & I've never had a problem.
