Once I complete that puzzle, I just log back in. That method may seem aggravating, but it sure beats learning the hard way that you weren't logged in..... [cursing]

Isn't it possible after 10 movements there be an autosave ? And a button to reload? (restore)

Autosave is definitely not always wanted. If I'm really stuck I use the save function as way to "freeze" a partial solution before messing everything up. I wouldn't want such baseline to be destroyed by a badly timed autosave.

Why don't you add another button to load a previous game? Must we retire the page and return to it to restore a saved game?

That method may seem aggravating, but it sure beats learning the hard way that you weren't logged in..... What I often do is open calcudoku in a new tab and see if I'm still logged in. If you are logged in you can go back to your original tab and submit your puzzle. If not you can log in from the new tab but I'm not sure what happens to your existing puzzle, but you can still do your copy and paste trick. Also, IIRC, save for later is a non-destructive way to check if you are still logged in.

Isn't it possible after 10 movements there be an autosave ? And a button to reload? (restore) That really shouldn't happen anymore. In any case, an autosave could be a good idea.

Yes, I thought about that: there'd be two "save slots" for each puzzle then: one the latest autosave, one the latest "user save".

I have just experienced another timeout. And I saved the puzzle before entering the last numbers but it didn't load ( restore ). Why don't you add another button to load a previous game? Must we retire the page and return to it to restore a saved game?

I did restart the database server just now, so the site was unavailable for about 5-10 seconds, I'm guessing you fell into that gap, sorry.. Patrick
