Edit and Delete

mszee · 05 Sep 2006, 05:13

I understand that I can't edit or delete messages which have been answered already but today I've tried to both edit and delete unanswered posts of mine and every time I've tried that, it would freeze and not post the change.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

There is a time limit.

I can't remember what it is off the top of m head but basically you can only make alterations for the first X number of minutes after a post is made.

I know that too. This was immediate reaction...that's why I am asking...

Time limit is 60 minutes, regardless if there are replies or not.

This is most likely a client issue due to javascript changes. Clear your browsers cache and try again, if you see an Edit button it should work.

Thank you so very much.
