If you use Joomla 1.0.14 or earlier, you will encounter this issue, and you need to be prepard or you will be very frustrated.
WHEN EDITING CONTENT: AVOID YOUR BROWSER'S BACK BUTTON!
When editing a post: Train yourself to not use the Back Button on your browser – if you decide to leave the page without making any changes, only click Save or Cancel, or else you will be stuck with a post "locked" for editing and you won't be able to get back in.
Only Use Save or Cancel:
If you click < back on your browser, the post you are editing will lock and look like this:
To break the lock, a Super Administrator has to log in and choose System > Global Checkin.
