My problem is that I am working on a page and then I receive ....Error saving the journal. Perhaps your session has expired-try reloading the page". I used to receive from Firefox when reloading page...To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action'. Now I don't receive this message and I lose info that was entered. How do I get this to pop up again so I can save my messages. Using Firefox 22.0 u to date

You get an alert about resending POST data if you go back to a page or refresh a page that was previously requested from the server by submitting form data via a (hidden) POST form.
Firefox can only make sure to get the same page by resending that POST form.
Firefox doesn't know what that form data means, so Firefox asks for confirmation before resending that form data as such an action can cause you to repeat an action and buy another item or post a message another time.
A way to prevent this pop-up about resending POST data is not to use the Back button, but to open links on a page requested from a server by sending a form with POST date in a new tab (window) with a middle-click or a Ctrl + left-click.
