Back Button Erases Previous Page Content

[garysmith]

Hello Gang,

1) I am a registered user and I want to post an ad
2) I choose the Place an Ad text link >
3) I Choose a Category for my ad >
4) I am taken to a page to choose a Package (Free or Pay) >
5) I am taken to the page in which I enter most of the ad information >
6) I am then taken to the Image area for the ad (this is really a great site!)...wow I can even post photos... Oh my! Wait. I forgot to describe that part of my ad that explains those details...I will just hit the back button and return to the previous page and enter the info before I add my photos... > (clicks the back button)

error page! (Clicks Back Button Again) >

Where did my information go that I just entered? Oh My! I have to re-type all the infomation again?

3)I Choose a Category for my ad >

Is there a way to have the software hold your information during the "Ad Submission Stage" so that users may hit the back button if they want to preview or change the ad? If not a little verbage at the bottom of Step 5) (see above) might let users know that if/when they move to the next step there is no coming back until their ad is placed? And then I assume that they may edit their ad details 24/7?

Thoughts.

Here is some language you may want to include just above or below the "Choose Your Category" field.
