Sometimes, when I submit a post, I get returned to a location a step or three before the specific thread I'm posting to - someplace I was just at recently, but not immediately, before the post. It's half Twilight Zone, half contest - where will the Forum take me this time?

That should be the consequence of opening several browser windows, specifically opening another window after you opened the window with the topic that you eventually reply to.

Heh. Tabbed browsing has been my downfall. I've looked up and realized that I have 4 or five CCF windows open at once, a few times.

Rui, I have been studying this accurence for about a month with IE7. I have found that it does not happen with windows (browsers), just tabs in the same browser.

I will open active topics in the mornig then just hold down the control key and start clicking topics I want to read. With my new computer, I can easily open 30 tabs with no consequence.

Now if I start all the way on my right, the last tab opened, and work my way left, there are no issues. However if I start anywhere else, it could drop me anywhere.

I have also noticed that SMF doesn't have the issue, but it may be easier to deal with in PHP.

Bobby, the culprit is the Referer Mod, so it's to be expected that you won't get that issue with SMF.
Without the Referer mod this wouldn't be happening with Snitz either. Anyway, with different tabs you still have a single session in your interaction with the forum, so the page opened in the last active tab will be the one you will be returned to. With different browser windows, each browser window creates its own session, so pages visited within that session won't affect pages visited from other sessions.

Ahhh... makes sense. Just so everyone knows, the referrer mod is absolutely necessary or users with Norton IS (tons) will get stuck in a loop on the registration page.

Also makes sense that if I work from right to left, I have no issues.

Thanks Rui.

So Dave, in a nutshell.... live with it.

OK, so the solution is to do my grazing in a different browser window than the one I'm posting from. I see Firefox has a shortcut for that, so I'm cool.
