I cannot edit my Answers?

Is it just me or it's happening to everyone else?

The problem is, I cannot edit my answer, whenever I click the edit button, after I typed something and clicked Preview, it jumps directly the the Question page (The asker's question) without any edited stuff...

Is this a glitch? Computer problem?

Update:

LOL yea

I just realized many people have asked the same question after I posted mine

    Earlier today the problem was posted on the Suggestion Board so by now Yahoo! should be aware of it.

    sure, I even have. it quite is a device glitch , in all probability brought about with the aid of too many human beings making too many demands on the3 Yahoo servers to close collectively in time. Yahoo has band width issues, , so which you get that default demonstrate whilst the device can not handle your "request without between the Yahoo server computers crashing and going offline, probably coming up a chain reaction situation with all the different cervers crashing and YA going offline. Tha't's assuming there are no issues at your end. attempt fresh the website or in simple terms take a ruin and are available back and attempt back later. Takea bathing room ruin. it quite is an extremely short-term glitch.

    It's a GLITCH for everyone. You must know that Y!A will ALWAYS have glitches.

    The edit glitch is BAD for experts because if someone adds "Additional Details", experts won't able to edit their answers due to the glitch.

    It has also been reported in the Y!A Suggestion Board many times.
