Funny thing, I have always found the white box to be ultimately superfluous to delete a message, since in order to delete my own message, I've always had to empty the contents of the message verbage anyway, then posting as an edit.
A message checked to delete with verbage intact never did work for me before the recent changes; but I had no problem when verbage was removed.
To my knowledge, that made the white box's only function I could see in the code was to remove the date/time and edit comment stamps. No matter to me, works then and now same for me just fine.
BUT.... we should believe each other as to problems encountered, given it is at least a moderately experienced member, as code is subject to "&if &then &do &else"-type nearly infinite variations that CAN lead to one member having a problem on one day through no fault of there own, and another not. Anyway, seems everyone is happy.
Like John I think, I have not been having a problem given my caveat, however I do recognize the validity of others. Chaos theory I guess.
I'm sure all of us who have written code for a living have seen our program break in just one case for one user (no programmatic error is suggested here), after long periods of time with no problems. I'm sure we could get the Navy to do a P.E.R.T. chart on this, but all seems well ! LOL
Thanks again Florian.
