I have done that MANY times now. Considering how long some of my posts are, that can suck BIG time! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
I try to "copy" before hitting my Continue button - especially on long posts. Then I can just past back into a new post if it won't continue.
Sometimes when I hit the back button, my post is still there. But, a few times, it has dissappeard.
... sorry you lost your post.

If I'm doing a long post, I write it in Word, then paste it here when I'm done. That way I can't lose it.
