    Have you tried it? It will not work when you first create a new topic. It will work on the replies.

    For an example, press the preview on this topic, and you should see the draft button between the preview button and send button.

    Yes you can do it,
    Put all pages
    Code:
            function save_message() {
                ('Copyright © AvacWeb. All Rights Reserved. Use and  modification of this script is not allowed without this entire copyright notice in the original, copied, or modified script. No distribution without consent.');
                my_setcookie('saved_msg', escape(document.post.message.value), false);
                var note = document.createElement('div');
                note.id = 'saved_note';
                note.innerHTML = 'Your message has been saved automatically.';
                document.body.appendChild(note);
                setTimeout(function() { document.body.removeChild(document.getElementById('saved_note')); }, 3000);
            }
            $(function() {
                if(document.post && document.post.message && document.post.id !== 'quick_reply') {
                    var saved_msg = my_getcookie('saved_msg');
                    if(saved_msg && confirm('Do you want to restore your previous message?')) document.post.message.value += unescape(saved_msg);
                    delete_cookie('saved_msg');
                    setInterval(save_message, 30000);
                    $(document.post.post).click(function() { delete_cookie('saved_msg'); });
                }
            });
    In css
    Code:
            #saved_note {
                position: fixed;
                bottom: 10px;
                right: 10px;
                padding: 5px 10px;
                border: 1px solid;
                color: #c05;
                background: #E1EBF2;
            }

    Yeah i've seen that code but the little message made with css doesnt work on my forum for some reason. It might be because i probably have a few errors in the CSS that i dont know how to fix. (i dont even know if the javascript is working because the message wont pop-up)
