...is that a caching header issue?

I really miss that "feature" -- anybody give me some insight so I can fix it.

On my sites it always just works, so I don't get it.

Maybe it's because you have "no-cache" in the header of the post form?  Try taking it out?

Works for me here. Using Firefox.

Doesn't work for me...  using firefox.

What is it, random?!?

Ok...  anyway..  I gotta get back to work.  No more bug fixes from me until tonight.

While you're at it, didn't the post count on ?off include the OP?

Nope -- it was number of replies.

Added one more feature: The focus is now set to the text area when you reply (and to the subject on new topics).

I'm gone now.. really...

Yes, it's about the headers:

Headers sent by Joel's forum:
Cache-Control: private

This forum is sending:
Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0

Also you send additional header,
Pragma: no-cache

I think changing 'Cache-Control' to Private should do the trick.

Is there any reason the posting page would modify itself after it loaded?
