    I think there is a little bug in the counter of remaining caracters (to be sent to someone)

    Beside, the error message make you loose what you've already written instead of allowing you to apply corrections

    the error message only makes you loose what your cache is set to a very low amount, if your cache is set to a normal amount you shouldn't have that problem

      I was saying:
      If there is for instance 2 characters left, you think it will be ok. You apply the "send message button" and the site is telling you that you're message too long, and ask for correction.
      Then the message you've started (the one you couldn't send) is cleared.

      There should be some javascript somewhere clearing this edit box, which should be the case is the most of cases, but maybe not if the preceding page was an error page.

        have you tried hitting the back button? before submitting a message i usually copy it to my clipboard (Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C), so if something does happen I can just paste it (Ctrl+V)

          Yeah of course this works (behavior of the operating system, not the web site)

          I was just laying the stress on a point that may be improved

            By the way, I forgot to answer something important: back button simply doesn't work. The edit message box is cleared when loading the page.

              that shouldn't be hard to do assuming that the validation of lenght is processed before displaying the page, the variable would still be in memory, and it just needs to be "echoed"

                you got it. Or creating simply a global error variable that would prevent some behaviours if set.

                  prevent what behaviors?

                    If you use Internet Explorer and you type over 500 chars, it will pop up a javascript alert telling you that your message is too large, and message will not get erased.
