Forum: movies Subject: "Reply to this Post" link is not working properly

I was unable to directly use the "Reply to this Post" link in responding to the topmost post. here:
http://archive.org/post/408575/new-video-audio-player-opt-in-is-live

The topmost "Reply to this Post" on the URL above was saved as follows:
http://archive.org/iathreads/post-new.php?reply=1&;parentid=408575&threadid=408575&nested=1&subject=Re%3A%20new%20video%2Faudio%20player%20%27opt%20in%27%20is%20live%21&forum=movies

Selecting the "Reply to this Post" link, using left mouse key as would be expected, does nothing. I tried it several times but it does nothing.
As a result I had to open the "Reply to this Post" link in a new separate tab to be able to respond to it. --which I am doing now.

I am running Firefox 11.0 on Linux Mint Debian Edition. With all updates applied. I am not seeing this problem

Your problem just happened to me this morning. So I right clicked and opened - then I wrote my problem and query but when I went to post my reply the message "Your post has been successfully applied" popped up for a split second then it defaulted to "error: you haven't chosen a forum". Since the "forum" was listed on my post for "Movies" I couldn't figure out what was going on. I went through this several times only to discover after I had refreshed my screen that my original post had been posted here about 6 times; so then I can do go back through and delete all of the extra posts. I see that someone else has posted their same message three times on here which indicates to me that I am not the only one with this issue.

it uses some very basic javascript to request the "reply to" form from the server so it can inline show it (so you can see what you're replying to).
I put that change in maybe 2 months ago?

Anyway, sounds like there is a JS issue with your setup or something...
