I use that in my app. If the user has been typing into an editing window, and then closes the browser window, they will expect that what they typed will show up again when they restart the app. I use the onbeforeunload event in the browser to handle this, along with a (rare) synchronous ajax request to run a PHP termination script. -- Cheers -- Tim
