Best bet is to check for JS errors in the browser console, then take it from there. Even if the post didn’t publish, you should have autosaves. Also: did you click “Save Draft” while typing it?
thanks, i do get some messages but i wouldnt be able to understand them.
the problem is that when i click save it wipes the content on the page, but i’m getting good at copying my work to clipboard before saving, and the problem happens less when i dont have any other pages from my site open in the browser, particularly the preview one.
it been causing difficulty again this morning. i get the follow errors from the javascript console, but i dont know what to do with the information:
event.returnValue is deprecated. Please use the standard event.preventDefault() instead. load-scripts.php?c=0&load%5B%5D=jquery-core,jquery-migrate,utils,plupload,plupload-html5,plupload-f…:4

This is the culprit:

There is no “getScrollerElement” method/function in WordPress, so this must be coming from a plugin. There is one in CodeMirror, but could be something else. To determine which plugin it is, look at the URL next to that error message, then disable that plugin.
