I've recently switched to Firefox on the Mac. I use it on my Windows box as well.
I'd say that about 1 out of every 3 posts I'll make, the forum will "hang" after I click on the post button. If I click the button repeatedly, it will usually "take," but more often than not I have to copy my post, back out of the entry form, then re-enter it again. THEN it will "take" on the first post click.
I don't have this issue with Safari on my Mac, nor Windows IE on my Windows box...I don't have Firefox on my Windows box to test that.
Anyone else have this problem?

what version of FF are you using? Have you tried going back to a version that worked for you before? Do you have a bunch of add-ons active? Sometimes, they can mess you up.

Firefox 2.0.0.4...was released at end of May 2007.
This was the first version of FireFox I've ever loaded onto the Mac.
Add-ins are only those that came with Firefox...Talkback and DOM Inspector. No others are loaded.
It really does seem to be FireFox for OSX specific issue. And with this board. I'm on many other forums and the Post function works normally there. Just on this one do I have issues. (just did it again)

Most of our forum code is custom. It might look like other forums because it started with the same code base but has been mostly reworked behind the scenes. With custom code comes unique problems.
I wonder if FireFox on OSX is having problems with our encrypted cookie format? That's the only thing I can think of that might cause posting problems.

I've never had a problem with posting here. If you are loosing post it is possible that your connection is lagging.

I've now encountered this same issue on 3 different wireless networks. Must be my machine then, but it's only with this forum and only when I use my Mac with Firefox. Safari seems fine.
It's a minor annoyance. I'll cope.
