For the past 20 minutes or so, I keep getting the following message when I try to post:

Please push the back button and reload the previous window. Posting doesn't work initially normally or with the Quick Reply feature. After several attempts of reloading the page, functionality does not return. So far closing the tab, and navigating back to the page allows for posting to happen, as does copy/pasting the root url (ie removing the php stuff). Haven't changed any settings in a long time, and haven't done anything out of the usual today.

I get that same error message when I try to post sometimes. It's not frequent, but it's happened now and then for at least the past several months. It's usually when I've had a thread open for a while and then try to edit one of my posts or post a new reply.

I don't know what causes the problem, but the only solution I've ever found is to open the thread fresh in a new tab or window or force it to reload by messing with the text in the URL. Once the "token" (whatever that is) has expired, I've never had any luck getting that particular tab/window of the thread to work again; not even refresh works. I always have to load the thread over.

Thankfully, hitting back on the broken window usually lets me copy the edits I had been trying to make.
