Hi Soosky,

Which browser do you use? Also, can you see the "Quick Reply" box below the last message of every thread?
Thanks,
Torsten

Hi Soosky

If you have posted something and then want to post again in the same thread, the only place that the "answer button" will appear is in other people's posts. You will never have an "answer button" in one of your own posts.

I can see an "answer button" in each of your posts and also in each of Torsten's posts. I will not be able to see an "answer button" in my own post (this one), but I'm sure you and Torsten will both be able to see an "answer button" in this (my) post.

Hope that helps.

Hi Amy,

Thanks a lot for clarifying this -- your explanation makes perfect sense. Soosky, yes, you see an answer button only next to another poster's message -- not to your own. If you want to post another message, you can use the white "Quick Reply" window beneath the last post. Simply type your text into the window and then hit "Send message" (the button beneath the window).

Let me know if this makes sense.
Many thanks,
Torsten

Okay, I am just experimenting with the "answer" button, just to see the difference with "post reply". I suspect my post will appear after the person's post that I am "answering".

What do you know, it didn't. I thought it will appear after Torten's first reply. What great theory I have. Confused

On second thoughts, why would people want to do that, it will totally jumble up everything. But I thought the "answer" button would mean answering the person's answer button I clicked.
