Post Preview
January 2, 2009
I can't preview my comments before I post. The prompt says preview loading but it never does. At first I thought it was only in posts that I added links or images to but now I can't preview anything. Anybody else having problems?
Argh, I just hit preview post for this comment and it worked but there has been a number of posts that I can't preview so I end up posting and editing afterwards.
I see the same thing from time to time. What browser are you using?
For what it's worth, I've seen this happen too (most often when I've been on the road.) Not sure why it happens. I think the previews are done using AJAX, so there might be some situations where the AJAX just doesn't work (JavaScript interpreter dies or something). A newer update to the message forum software might fix it, but I try to save updates for the off-season except for major security patches.
It's just my laptop, the proverbial bug. Desktop does fine but wireless network speed may vary.
