Clicking on the leftmost pixel of the preview button = post eaten. I should fix that.


How the fuck did you figure that out? I'm amazed.


I used my enormous penis as a sort of dowsing rod, which I then pointed at caltrops. I already had a hunch from the last time somebody bitched about it, and having my post eaten reminded me to test the theory. Boom, repeatable eats.

I haven't looked at the source, but I can't imagine what would be sitting there that would cause it. I thought it was just the post gif and nothing else?


I don't remember the specifics, but browsers send some x-y coordinate bullshit with image submit buttons. IE and Firefox might not even behave the same way. Anyways, the code must think a zero in the x coordinate means that there's no input. Result: forum routes you to the initial makePost screen and throws out your post like so much Sassy.
