Hello all,

I'm not sure if anyone else has this problem or if it's a computer setting, but I thought I'd broach it anyway: When I prepare quotes and go forward to the preview window, it tells me to click "back" on the browser window to edit the quote. However, when I do this, the "page has expired" and I have to refresh to view the page and lose all my information. I've tried a few different things but can't seem to get around this. Any help would be much appreciated!

Open a second browser window Feb 21, 2007

Hi,

When I want to see the job offer while quoting, I open a second browser window (or tab with IE7) so that I don't have to go back to the previous page, which indeed deletes everything you have typed so far.

editing the actual quote, rather than viewing the job ad Feb 21, 2007

Ah yes, I see what you mean Marie-Céline - I do that too.

I don't mean seeing the job ad, I mean actually being able to alter or change my quote (whether it be for a typo, or to add or delete something) - after you have clicked "preview quote" but before you click "submit quote".

I think it needs an edit button on the screen itself, to avoid using the browser back button.

A BACK button in form was added. Mar 8, 2007

Hi all,

Problems with back button from browser sometimes have problems in depends of browser configuration, cookie's exipire time, and some other stuff.

Now, a Back button at the bottom of the form was added to solve that problem.

Best,
Gastón
