In summary, there is a problem with posts disappearing on a forum and the user is unable to view their own post unless they make another one. They are asking for help and suggesting refreshing the thread and checking browser/OS and Java script settings.

Hello Readers,

Something strange is happening on here. after I have posted something it promptly dissapears!, I can only get the original text up on screen if I post another after the first!. is this problem happening to anyone else?.
for example I have left a response in the thread entitled- alien life forms, do they exist?, my reply would be after post 16 but I can't see it, can anyone else or is it just me?.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Try to refresh the thread.

What browser/OS do you use? Do you have enabled Java script?
