"reply to the latest post" / o.k. how?

how to reply to "latest post"?

[Jacquilynne]

I'm not sure I understand your question. Every post on the boards has a reply button on it, and pushing it should open up a box that allows you to enter your reply. Are you running into problems with that?

I believe you have to be logged in, in order to "reply". I know that has tripped me up in the past.

it might also be because the "reply" or "reply to OP" options aren't working consistantly. As example, I had to exit this thread and re-enter, just to reply here now. Hitting "reply" or reply to original post", does nothing lately.

Yes, I've had this problem, too. Clicking on the "reload page" button at the top of your browser usually works, too.

Oh good! I'm glad I'm not the only one having trouble with the reply button! I, like cimui, have found that using the refresh/reload page usually works. But I also have to exit and re-enter sometimes. That is a pain when there have been lots of replies because then they all come up expanded and I only want to reply to the last post!

If the Reply box doesn't appear, hit your stop or escape key. Then, in rapid succession, hit "Reply, Report, Reply". Usually, the report box will open but rapidly disappear, replaced by the reply box.

I'll try that the next time it happens. It's been pretty stable, for the most part, but thanks for the tip.
