I signed into yahoo and started to type an email. I was almost finished when suddenly half of what I typed disappeared, I checked the drafts folder and it wasn't there. I still had the first sentence but I just signed out, cleared the cookies and started over. The second time I was able to type the email ok and send ok. what happened? is this a firefox issue?

I think, you accidentally pressed Ctrl+z.

I hope its not a Firefox issue..

If you used the mouse then you may have selected text and deleted that selected text by accident. In such a case it can be restored via Undo (Ctrl+Z), but this won't help if you have closed or reloaded that window.
