westwood - as I understand it they're different parts of work, but they will be released in the same deploy so should be resolved at the same time. Mind you, I have been getting 'very soon' as the answer to the question of 'when will this be fixed?' since Thursday last week. So I fear the first hurdle is coming to a mutual agreement about the elapsed time that 'very soon' might mean.
go_2 - looks like you're in luck in this instance. Trying to work out what's causing a bug on lonelyplanet.com can be a bit like playing that board game Mastermind, but much less fun.
I always Ctrl A and Ctrl C my words before I post (although not strictly necessary since it is always there when I go back a page in Chrome), and I Refresh the thread before considering re-submitting the failed post (which usually - not always - appears after the Refresh).
When reporting a bug, it'd help me to get your problem resolved if you could please include as much information as you can, including details of your browser/system setup, the specific error message text, and the amount of times you've experienced the problem (all of these help our technical team diagnose what's wrong and give them a head start on how to fix what's broken).
Depending on the type of error, you can also take a screenshot and send it along to community@lonelyplanet.com.

Happens to me reasonably regularly as well Ozzie - one in three.I always Ctrl A and Ctrl C my words before I post (although not strictly necessary since it is always there when I go back a page in Chrome), and I Refresh the thread before considering re-submitting the failed post (which usually - not always - appears after the Refresh).

katija, i have reported a gazillion times about the non-functioning mobile site but nothing has been done, It appears the feedback here is not taken seriously.- can't zoom
- can't see 'recent threads'
- long threads with multiple pages only display the first one with no way of navigating to teh 2nd one.

I don't use the site on my phone much at all, but re: MTL's comment above, for the sake of comparison I'll note that when I use the website with my phone and browser (Samsung Galaxy S II with Dolphin browser):- I also cannot pinch and zoom (but I can double-tap and get a slightly larger text);
- When I hold the phone upright there is no way to get over to "recent threads," but when I hold is sideways I see them. They seem like two different page configurations;
- I can navigate to other pages on longer threads, whether the phone is held upright or sideways. But when I hold it sideways I navigate to later pages as I would on a laptop browser. When I hold it upright there is instead a dropdown screen requiring me to select a page number; and
- If I try to add to a thread and then accidentally tilt the phone (say, from sideways to upright), my typed text is deleted entirely.
