Re: Can we fix our Trac that doesn't lose new ticket text

My very pessimistic rule of thumb is don't trust a form field unless the site actively saves a draft as you type. On Fri, Apr 24, 2015 at 10:13 AM, Eric Crockett wrote:

My Firefox also has this issue. So it seems the problem is the browser itself. How can this be fixed on the server side?

Steps to reproduce:

1. Click "New Ticket" 2. Type some text into the box 3. Press "Back" in your browser 4. Press "Forward" in your browser

If you try this with an official Trac this doesn't happen, so either this was fixed in a new version, or we have a plugin installed which is causing this to happen.

Current version of Trac is 1.0.5, we're currently running 1.0.1
