We are using the Editor2 applet. I set the autoSaveInterval and
autoSaveTimeout to 30 but neither waiting 30 seconds or making 30 changes
triggers a save. I see the status message for a save when I use the
application but the applet never shows the save message or any error. I've
opened up the java console but there are no errors there either.

I am also have a problem with the makeBackupFiles option. For the
application this works great. But the applet just saves the xml without
creating the backup file. Is there any known issues there (webdav)? We are
using the following option.

<param name="argument33" value="-putpref">
<param name="argument34" value="makeBackupFiles">
<param name="argument35" value="true">

This is correct.

This is unrelated to auto-save.

Yes.

Not to my knowledge.

Note that only the Editor2 applet supports auto-save. Editor1 does not
because in the case of Editor1 (see
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/xxe_applet.html ), it does not make
sense to do so.

We have not tested auto-save in the Editor2 applet. By design, it should
work, but may be there is a glitch in the case of the applet.

[1] Please confirm that you are using the Editor2 applet.
[2] If this is the case, please take a look at all the status and error
messages. In principle, each time auto-save is triggered, you should see
messages.

If you confirm that it does not work, we'll try to fix the bug ASAP.
Please do not wait too much, because we are about to release XXE v4.6.1.

Yes.

No.
