So I've been doing a bit of reading on AJAX and on the most part 'they' seem to be going on about retrieving data from elsewhere, but I'm wondering, could it be used to save a form that's being filled in every, lets say, 5 minutes? (much like the google mail draft thingy)
This is probably the biggest issue our user base has with our current intranet system as they usually have to fill out long reports. Obviously I've suggested that they manually click the 'submit' button every now and then, but that basically doesn't happen.
Anyone got any first hand experience of this type of thing? Or maybe something I could read up on?
Cheers
