Title: losing my connection to FF
Post by: 47sawdust on June 27, 2015, 10:12:26 AM
So when I'm researching a topic and multiple threads come up,I choose a likely thread to view and when I'm done and try to return to the multiple thread selection I lose my connection to the forum and have to start over again.Is there a way to avoid this?
Thanks for your help.
Mick

I generally open a new folder when I venture off.  That way I can easily return to the original folder.

I can just go to my "back" button (arrow) and hold that down for a list of the "history" and pick the right one.
Do you have the "back" option? 

What computer system are you using?

Wow, learned something.  I did not know that I could hold the back button down and it would bring up the previous "history".   :)

47,

   I thought you had done a no-no and were getting your __ -__ whacked and being booted off the FF. Glad it was just cyber gremlins and folks have ways to avoid them.

Or you can right click the back button. Same thing as holding down the back button.  ;)

Hitting the "Backspace" key takes you back to the previous page.
