Can someone tell me why my contributions are being posted multiple times even though the SUBMIT button is only clicked once.

It seems to happen after I SUBMIT and then re-visit the thread.

I'm getting a bit fed up having to go into every thread I contribute to and manually delete the erroneous posts.

Can you give me a bit more information about exactly what is happening, is it happening on your PC or something else? Are you pressing "Back" after you have posted and read the topic, going through the "Message posted. Thanks for your contribution." message a second time?

It seems that clicking on "RETURN TO TOPIC" does the repost.

(using Safari 5.0.3 on iMac running 10.6.5)

Pressing "Back" to get back to the "Message posted. Thanks for your contribution." page and then clicking "Return to Topic" by any chance?

Are you going back to/refreshing the "Message Posted" screen when it happens?
