Several times a day I navigate away from an editor page, either with forward or backward buttons, or a link, and sometimes I can lose a considerable amount of changes (and disturb the thought process...)
Isn't there a way we can prevent the web page from being navigated away while the edit window has changed data in it? There are plenty of websites that hold me captive until I dismiss their "customer satisfaction survey" or indicate that I definitely don't want their "deal of a lifetime". The editor must know when the data has changed, so can't it set a flag so you have to save or revert back changes before you can leave the edit page. Any ideas? I've tried to mitigate the problem by doing my editing in a separate window or IDE and doing the testing in another, but that removes all those great shortcuts that the online development environment has! Also, with the source in another editor, there's still the problem of forgetting to save it prior to running the next test. Rufus
