      It didn't look like the first post went through as my browser crashed during the posting for some reaosn.

        Hi,

        I'm curious about the browser crash you mentioned. Has it happened again? What's your OS and browser version (for example, Mac 10.3 Firefox 2.0)?

        When you restart your browser, one way to verify if your discussion post went through is to refresh your cache, or else you may not get the latest data (i.e. you may not see your most recent post). The way to do it is this:

        If you don't see a blue "Dev Tools" bar at the bottom of your browser in Freebase, hit F8. Then, from the menu that appears, click on "Refresh cache". Then refresh the discussion page. If your post went through, you should see it now. While it doesn't address the crash, this should at least help you avoid double posts.

        Faye, this happens to me often but not always after posting a discussion using FF 2.0 on WinXP. I've filed at least one bug report and have corresponded with Gordon about it too.

        Hi Faye,

        I am also running FF 2.0 and the crash does not always happen.  E.g. happened when I posted the question above and one time shortly after.  I have now posted 3 additional times without a problem.

        I am running Vista Ultimate Edition.

        Thanks,
        Biosopher
