FrontPage dicsussion groups

[Jim Haberman]

There is a known issue with discussion groups created in FrontPage (I use FP
2003). When a user posts a message to the group, it will often post twice.

1.) Anyone have a fix for this?

2.) Is there a method by which the group administrator can delete a specific
posting without damaging the table of contents?

3.) Is there a method by which the group administrator can review postings
prior to their appearing publicly on the group?

Thanks!

Jim - from personal experience I've found this is caused by a user who
double-clicks the "post article" button. I've added a warning of
sorts on the post page to only single click the button. That has
pretty much taken care of the problem.

Doug:

In this case, the "post" button is definitely not being pressed more than
once. The double posting occurs when I post as well.

Guess I've just been lucky so far. After posting the warning about
single-clicking the post button, I haven't had the double post problem
again. I'll keep my eye out for both the problem and a fix.
