Has anyone noticed that the 1st Edit does not take?

I edit a post, click 'save' and notice that my edit is missing and the post is the same. The second time around it seems to take. Now when I edit I make a copy of the entire edited post, click save, see the changes are not there, click edit again, Paste my saved post back on the page, click save and it takes. After this procedure, following edits seem to hold.

This seems some kind of technical fault with the edit procedure.

Update:

Kendra is using the site to SPAM a job site

    You have to click out of the question altogether and then click in again to see the updated or edited version. It's no good just clicking "back" because that just takes you to where you were before. As far as I'm aware it's always been like that.

    No... everything always works in one go for me...

    90% of the time, however, I do have to refresh the page after I submit an answer or save my changes.
