DESCRIPTION =========== The Autosave module automatically saves a node after a period of time. Content types that can be autosaved as well as the period of time a node is autosaved, is configurable. Autosaved nodes are are saved as a snap shot of the form. NOTE: this version of autosave only works for single form (of selected node type) on a page. DEPENDENCIES ============ None INSTALLATION ============ 1. Place the "autosave" folder in your "modules" directory (i.e. modules/autosave). 2. Enable the Autosave module under Administer >> Site building >> Modules. 3. Under config for a node type select it to use Autosave. 5. Under Admin -> Site Config -> Autosave enter the period of time before each autosave (in milliseconds).

CHANGE LOG ========== - 6.x-2.0 version is a complete re-write to remove dependencies on TinyMCE. - this version is now tied to the WYSIWYG module and currently is known to work with FCK, CK and TinyMCE 3.0 editors but requires the 6.x-2.x-dev version of WYSIWYG with this patch: http://drupal.org/node/614146#comment-2193764; this patch should be commited soon and will eventually be expanded to include other editors.
