Have you ever received this message when you tried to post a comment on HealthBeat?
It happens to me too.
I finally realized that this happens when too much time elapses between the time I started writing the comment and when I try to post it. (Since I often respond to many of your comment in one long comment, I may spend a half hour writing it.)
The solution is simple. Just "copy" your comment, then close HealthBeat.
Open a new HealthBeat, scroll down to the comments section, paste in, your comment, and send it. It will be accepted.
I'm sorry for any inconvenience, but this is just how typepad works .
I’ve had similar problems on several blogs. My solution now is to copy my comment whenever it is long on any blog. Then post, see if it works. If not, refresh the window and repost.
Saves much aggravation.
With sometime unreliable IT taking over our lives there is NO avoiding some aggravation.
On the whole however the web, the internet and the blogsphere are miracles

I have read the information regarding printing problem of useful data.I agree with your stand that The solution is Just “copy” your comment, then close HealthBeat.I am facing same problem in another site but through your quick solution my problem solved with an ease.
I have been successful with just copying my message, deleting it from the original “comments” window, and then repasting it and immediately posting it. I haven’t had to close and reopen Health Beat.
Here’s a tip if I may. Firefox has a blogging plugin called ScribeFire (.com) that pops up an editor window at the bottom of your browser. I prepare my comment there, then paste it into the comment box.
If a blog allows it, I can use the WYSIWYG editor to bold, italicize, blockquote and add links. Then I switch to code view (so all the html tags are visible), copy and paste. Check it out.
I have also had the same problems and opted to copy and paste my comments. Thanks for the tip.
