Description Chrisotpher R. Bowman 2004-03-06 21:10:17 UTC
I type in a long PR into the web page including text from the console which I have no ability to reproduce except manually.  I mistype the anti-robot code at the bottom of the form and submit. I get an error saying that the code was wrong, and go back and resubmit only all my text is gone.  Can the error web page please be a copy of the sibmission with an error message at the top and all the text submitted and a new code?

I was under the impression that refilling a form when the user clicked 
Back was a function of the browser.  If that's not the case, maybe 
someone on www@ knows how to correct this?  I don't.

I suggest to close this PR. I agree with ceri that 'back' is a function
of a browser. When I try to reproduce this with <unnamed evil browser>
it just works (i.e. the text is still in the form) and I cannot
reproduce.

I am sorry but I (and Siebrand Mazeland as well) cannot reproduce 
this on various webbrowsers.  When we press the back button the 
text is still in the submitted fields.  This must be a problem with 
your browser and not with our pr submit page's. 

Close the PR as a result of that.
