I composed a reply to my Yahoo group; previewed reply; clicked back arrow key to edit; is my reply gone?

Question

It was a carefully composed reply in a medical forum. I can't recreate it!! Please tell me how to get my reply back.

thanks.

Answer 1

it's not a tech issue, the back arrow doesn't work in yahoo- sorry. avoid using it while posting off the group OR right click and hit copy before ever back key'ing

Answer 2

I have had this happen sometimes especially with my e-mail and I have found that the reply is still there.  To see if the reply is still there when you click on the back button look at the top of the text box (the section where the message goes whether in the e-mail program or at the group site).  If you see the words of your reply it means it's there.  If the box is empty the reply is gone.

Sometimes with my e-mail too I will type out a reply and then save it to draft so that I don't lose something in case something like that should happen.

If this is something going on with the group site that the reply is gone it could mean a technical issue.  I would recommend getting in touch with the owner of the group to let them know what's going on.  To send an e-mail to the owner send it to an address that will look something like this:
