  Happens with a lot of websites Vic, best to do long posts on Word or Notepad first then copy and paste to the forum.

  Happened to me once when I was writing a long comment on DDC planning website. Two hours work wasted by a timeout message.

  Happens to me sometimes when I am posting photos, usually packs up when the last one is going on. Irritating as I then have to go back and rename the photos as the forum will not accept the same ones twice. Don't usually have problems with text posts as mine are not usually very long but various websites have time out limits, I'm pretty sure DDC have one on planning applications so organisations with a lot to say tend to write a letter instead.
