"Note: before hitting 'submit', please save your work. If your browser
caches images, or if you take longer than 45 minutes to fill in the
form, you may have a stale image shown on your page, and your
submission will be rejected. Depending on your browser, you might lose
work in this case. Help save yourself from this common frustration"

There is a PR for this:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=www/99305

August 2006 ... Doesn't seem to be very high priority.

You may want to attempt to get the webmaster's attention by sending your
previous email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I would fix it myself but I'm not really familiar with perl (And even less
familiar with using perl for webpages) and don't have the time to learn/get
familiar...

If you prefer a GUI front end try gtk-send-pr (in the ports) It's a 
nice gui for send-pr and doesn't mangle patches.

The issue is app running for the submit PR form either buggy or it has a very 
small time-out. It does not recognize the image code typed.

That sucks :-(

In some browsers (Opera for example) you can press back and whatever you typed
in forms will still be there ... Not sure how this works with other browsers
... Guess it's to late for that now...

Other then this, I would recommend to _ALWAYS_, on any site/forum, copy
content to a file and/or the clipboard before submitting it in a webform.

You may also want to try using send-pr(1) included in FreeBSD base, IMO it
works a lot better than the webform anyway.
