    Default Popup I sometimes get when posting a reply

    Sometimes when I post and hit post quick reply or submit reply, I get a popup which says - "This page is asking you to confirm that you want to leave - data you have entered may not be saved". Then there are two choices - either Leave Page or Stay on Page. What causes this popup?

    Yea, I've gotten that too. That is supposed to prevent you from leaving a page accidentally, when you have typed a message, but haven't hit submit yet. Such as if you are typing in the quick reply like I am now, and then click the back button without every clicking "post quick reply."

    That's how it's supposed to work. However, a handful of times I have seen it get confused and after I click submit, or post quick reply, and before it reloads the page showing me my post, it gives me the warning about leaving the page.

    I'll check on vBulletin.com and see if there is any information on it. I'm not sure if it's a browser issue (I usually use Chrome now) that gets confused, or a bug of some kind in vB.

    Thanks - I use Firefox, and with you using Chrome, I don't think it is a browser issue. Must be something in vB
