Re "can't edit"--I can

4 years ago

If you're having the problem with the submit button sticking, I've found that it actually works. Just to be cautious, I'll copy my text to the buffer, but then I hit the refresh button, and my message has posted correctly.

I just had two edit attempts work. Thought it was fixed. Third attempt failed. On a mac with Firefox.

I couldn't edit yesterday -- I had the same thought as you then, but my edits never did post. I assumed they were "upgrading" their website again and we know how well that always goes. LOL!!!!! I'll post this then try to come back and edit....

edit here. So it's working again for now.

Mine was still not working yesterday - and refreshing just took me back to the original post.

Trying again...

Still nope - unless I change the url to 'houzz' instead of 'gardenweb'.

Ouch. Carol, I was hoping it was the stuck button thing.

Nope, mine isn't working either, I just tried on another thread and it was a no-go. (sigh) Maybe tomorrow.

Mine doesn't work. It just hangs there in limbo and I can't refresh or do anything for that matter.

Thanks, Olychick, for saying so. I thought I was losing my mind when it did work then it didn't. On Windows with Chrome. I wonder if it's a matter of cached old code, somewhere...
