Remember form content ...

Post by TheHighwayman »

Hi,
I've another problem with the new phpBB3 board.

Practically, with the old phpbb2 board, while writing a new post, if I opened a new html page in the browser, overwriting the page of the form I was writing, wait for about 15 minutes, and then clicked the back browser button, I returned to my unfinished post, and could continue writing it.

Now, with phpbb3, If I stop writing my post, open a new page on it, and then, after 15 minutes, go back to it, I obtain a blank form, so I have to rewrite it from the beginning.

I've noticed if I wait for less than 10 minutes on new pages, before going back to the unfinished post, I can continue writing it without losing nothing.

So I think there's a time limit I can set; what is this limit?
How can I modify it?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Pit$Bull,
thank you for the answer but I've already checked this value: it is set to 7200 sec (2 hours).

So the problem doesn't depends on it.
Besides, it neither depends on session time limit, because I've set it to 0, that is I've disabled this limit.

So, what it can depends on?

Thank you again.

HI,
I've noticed this problem happens only with Internet Explorer.
Practically if I write a message and then open a new page on it, if I go back I find the form empty.

Is it possible to fix this Explorer misbehaviour?

Thank you in advance.
