While composing a reply, the session time out despite frequent and recent "auto saves" (i.e. changes in the reply).
When I clicked on Go Advanced, the forum notified me of the expired session.
But as a consequence, I lost the reply that I was composing. When I clicked on the browser (Firefox) Go Back icon, the reply composition pane was gone.
In a previous posting here, I asked whether I can control the session expiration time.
But regardless, it would be nice if the session expiration clock were updated every time "auto saves" occurs.
And it would be nice if a session expiration error were handled in a manner such that after logging in again, we returned to the state we were in -- in this case, in the window with the composition pane.
I know the latter is possible (SMOP) because that is how it works in another forum.
In any case, the composition window must not be lost. At the very least, I could copy and paste into a new composition window that I open after logging in again.
