I'm not sure what you are asking since you successfully posted a
question about a question you were was trying to post and you clicked
a "Post" button to post it.

I am also confused. I would like to post a new question. I click on "New"
with the drop down that says "Question" and a little question mark next to
it in a reddish circle, or "general comment". I then click on "Question"
and nothing happens. I know that now I am replying to a previously posted
question, because I don't know what else to do. I don't seem to have any
problem with the "reply" button. What am I doing wrong? What is the correct
way to do this?

It does nothing when I click on "new" button. What am I doing wrong. Unable
to post a question - unable to download Windows Media Player!!!!

Stop using the web interface. It sucks at best. (There! I've finally said
it.) Use Outlook Express or another newsreader or even Google Groups. Any of
those choices are better than the web interface.

Excellent link!

(Do you think people will get the idea that I don't like the web interface?)

I'm having the same problem. I can't post my question. When I click on
question, a hand appears but no box like this comes up. Help please.

Thank you Stefan, I have also not been able to post a comment. The reason is
because I was not allowing popups. When I clicked the link you included, I
noticed the band at the top of the page asking me if I would allow the pop
up, YES, and now I am able to post.

Glad I could help.

(Currently, there seem to be more oddities with the web interface, though.)

Hello Stefan,
I too am having a problem trying to post. I read all the postings and have
followed what you outlined, and I still get nothing when I click on the
question title. I am replying to your posting and hope you may have an
answer on how to proceed.

Thanks in advance

In the web interface, just click the New button (in the General Questions
forum), and then click Question. You will then be prompted to log in. If
your browser is set to block popups, you won't see the form to ask the
question, though. Instead, you will have to click New | Question again.
