Why <br /> <br /> ??
Shouldn't it be the invisible characters [CRLF] [CRLF] instead?

When did you get this?
Is this the first time, or have you gotten it before?
No I see this quite too often. But just thought of getting it corrected today.
This will come up if page is left idle for a long time (say 24 hours or so). I'm not sure of the exact time for session expire though.
I have my browser set to show the last webpage it was showing when I closed it. So the next day when I open the browser (firefox), and feel like repping someone, reply to post etc. on that page itself, this comes up. After I refresh the page, the message will not appear again.
It's because you're using Firefox and it is showing you a cached page.
Yes, that's right.Quote:

Not at all!
In fact you can concentrate on more important ones while work on this on least priority basis. Afterall how many people get this box anyways? I think I'm just the first, and that too due to my browser settings and addiction to forums. This is usually the last site I visit before shutting down the system. ;)
Well, if you actuall "shut down" the system, closed your browser, and powered off your machine, then you probably wouldn't get that message either.Quote:

If he saved the tabs, then when the system is powered up and he re-opens firefox the page displayed is from the cache, so the message would still show.Quote:

If you're using Firefox, you sure will. It's not widely known but Firefox has a real issue when it comes to loading cached pages. I know it because I've been dealing with users on 30 forums for the last five years and it's come up a number of times. As a browser, it's a brilliant marketing job.Quote:

Edit:
Which version of Fire fox are you using?
If I clear the cache, I need to relogin by putting in the userID/password again for each site I visit that requires authentication. Additionally, all sites I visit will take longer to load than it takes now. That's a bigger pain.Quote:

It is just that no one had pointed out this error till now. So I just did that, so that it gets into their list of bugs and is fixed some day or the other.
@: Pradeep: I am also using firefox with the same settings that you have. I never log out of VBF and in fact I never even close the tabs. I directly close the FF like you do. Next day when I open the FF, I get my pages back but never have I got that message. Probably because I refresh the page before answering any post... Never tried 'repping' someone the moment I open FF though :D
Next time just click the rep link/image on any post for a test. This box should come up.
Don't worry about accidentally repping a bad post because the site prevents you doing so until you refresh the page ;)
Ok I will try it on JPnyc as he has already got his rep disabled...
