Help with saving

Can anyone please help me save my drawing. I have just spent the last few hours designing a circuit as a first time user and now that I have finished and want to print it it says I must be logged in. I log in and then it goes to another page saying I have no drawings saved. I do get this mesage Browser compatibility warning: CircuitLab may not work as expected in your web browser. Please see our System Requirements. I have been in and enabled the active scripting section then refreshed still no luck??

Well, there could be a bug with the “save” and “logged in” status in CL because I had that a second time now - but:

  • I can’t reproduce it, so it’s simply not there.

  • It would be hidden deeply in CL’s code or file structure, as I use a “strange” browser (Safari) and I think most of these other incidents are not with OS X / Safari.

However, to overcome the “can’t save” problem:

  • Don’t close the “bad” schematic!

  • After logging in (… you are logged in …) start a “New” circuit, add an element, save that new schematic - it will work.

  • Delete that element, go back to the “bad” schematic, select and copy everything, change back to the new one and paste it there.

  • Save it again - it will work.

  • Report here always mentioning OS and browser version.

" Deleting the cokies seemed to do the trick."

Hmmmmm.

Are cokies like pixies? Sort of small junkies?

Or maybe they're some sort of residue from a steam powered browser ... the lumps in the electricity left over from coal fired powered stations?

OK, but can you read postings:

“Report here always mentioning OS and browser version” ?

:-(
