What I want

[Anglo]

Is for someone to fix the p.m. system so it does NOT cause a reset when I try to use it , and no , I am NOT the only one to have this problem




EDIT: this may be a firefox problem ( ver. 15 ) , a older one seems to be working

I have the same problem with Opera 11.64.

Could you describe what the problem exactly is as I don't know what you mean by this.

.... with Opera 11.64.

We are already at opera-12.02-44

when posting a pm , everything is normal until you press "post ", upon which the browser is dumped off the forum ,with the screen announcing the page has been "reset".
I did think that the browser ( firefox in my case ) was the problem , so I switched to a older version , it seemed  to help , but I'm not sure on that , I also (NOW) make sure I turn off the "send copy to outbox"

OK , I just tested again using the same method , It worked this time. I'll try again later

I know... When I noticed that Opera 12.0 (with several tabs open and being set to "Work Offline" before closing it) asks me for EVERY tab whether I want to go online, I decided that I will never update it anymore. Maybe I will switch to firefox later on.

And I have the same behavior as Anglo. Or I had - NOW it works, regardless of the setting of "save a copy to my outbox" - a feature that I also see properly working for the first time.

Many thanks for fixing it to whoever did it!

UPDATE: I had JavaScript turned off. When I turned it on, I got the same problem as before - but it's not reliable anymore, a few trials later it workes with JS on and a copy in my outbox. So it's not yet perfect but much better already.
All this with Opera 11.64.

Using Opera 11.64 on VL-7, PMs are broken again, no matter whether "safe copy" is set or not, JS is on or not, Ghostery is enabled or disabled - it says the server closed the connection as soon as I hit Send.

Anyway, here is the missing link:

Have fun!
