    Default A 'Forum' question about 'Auto Saving' ??

    Sometimes, while composing a new 'Post', I've been distracted and come back to it later...
    However, while typing 'posts' etc, I keep seeing a yellow pop-up saying the likes of 'Auto Saved'...
    Occasionally, I've done something wrong, and LOSE what I have been typing, but I have no idea
    about how to 'retrieve' what/where I was up to in my typing?...
    Am I missing something?

    Yes...where you were up to in your typing...

    Seriously, I have no friggin idea....
    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

    If you log off etc it will save it as a draft.

    If you close & reopen/reload that page, then start to compose another (new) message/reply, there should be a little grey box below the text entry window that says "Restore Auto-Saved Content", click on that and see what happens!

    It's a jscript implementation of CKEditor (used in vBulletin) ... one should search the vbulletin forum for nuances like this -->
