I suffered this same aggravation while editing one of the pages. I ended up re-editing the page and typing the changed parts back in that could remember. I know there were several other changes that I made to the page but someone else will have to add those now since I can't remember what they were. Next time I will know that I can't change anything will take more than 15 minutes or I will lose all of my changes. Preview mode is nearly worthless when this limit is in place.
I second the motion. Please change this ridiculous limit. -----Original Message----- Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2003 21:41:34 -0500 From: Greg Wooledge <[email protected]> To: devl at freenetproject.org Subject: [freenet-dev] The Author of Tiki Will Know Pain! Reply-To: devl at freenetproject.org --qc5DkMWUFEsp7/mK Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Someone please tell me how the hell I can tell Tiki to give me a cookie that lasts for at *LEAST* 4 hours? Or better yet, a week? Also, I'd really, really like to get back the changes I just lost because the fucking thing decided that I was no longer allowed to edit the page I'm working on, which I'd just previewed half a dozen times in the last half hour. And no, Hops damn you, I do not want to "return" to the "home page". I want to go back to the EXACT SPOT I WAS JUST IN, WITH MY TEXTAREA POPULATED BY ALL THE TEXT I'VE WRITTEN! Do you know what the upshot of this is going to be, if this idiotic 15-minute-cookie ordeal isn't changed? People are going to stop using "Preview", and they're going to hit "Save", lest the Baleful God Tiki become wrathful and strike, leaving nothing but a barren error message where once a bountiful page of marked-up text resided. They're going to have to save half-done crap, instead of taking the time to write things properly, because the very fabric of the universe is ripping to shreds beneath their keyboards. --=20 Greg Wooledge | "Truth belongs to everybody." greg at wooledge.org | - The Red Hot Chili Peppers http://wooledge.org/~greg/ | --qc5DkMWUFEsp7/mK Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (OpenBSD) iD8DBQE+aVhekAkqAYpL9t8RAgtDAKC53k1OnS1Oo6HS6uhqXFVJEB1SYQCgjy2n FmqBZnf/PCT6PE4KCJk4JdU= =cAcU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --qc5DkMWUFEsp7/mK-- _______________________________________________ devl mailing list devl at freenetproject.org http://hawk.freenetproject.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
