Firefox not remembering my forum text

(1/12) > >>

ChalkCat:
Odd problem here, sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place but I don't know where the problem is.

If I'm in the middle of typing a post in my forum, then accidentally navigate away from the page, when I back-browse to my post-form (or forward browse if I used the back button to navigate away) all my typing is lost and I'm looking at a blank post-form.

I do have "Allow browsers to go back to cached pages" checked in my forum server settings, but this is the really weird bit.  I have checked Opera and Chrome and they both remember my typing.  On other forums, including this one, Firefox remembers my typing!  So what is preventing Firefox from remembering my typing on my own forum?  And how do I fix it?  I wondered whether I had somehow broken a cookie, but I ran CCleaner and the problem persists.  Any ideas?

Thanks :)

K@:
Yeah. Use Opera. ;)

Is this just happening for you? Or, is everyone using Fartfox affected?

ChalkCat:
I like Firefox  :'(  LOL

None of my members even have FF installed on their machines to test it for me, so I can't answer that.

K@:
Get PaleMoon. It's Firefox on steroids. ;)

The portable version's good.

Have a look at Firefox's settings, particularly the cache/cookies options.

ChalkCat:
Thanks, I'll have a look at that :)  I don't want to be rained off FF though - I'm sure this is a new problem and that it was remembering my typing in the early day of the forum - being a clumsy oaf I can't believe this is the first time in five weeks or whatever that I've accidentally clicked something while I've been typing....

FF is set to remember history.  It has my forum cookie showing dutifully in the cookie list, which figures, as I never have to login.  I can't see anything more to fiddle with in there  :-\
