Endure and persist; this pain will turn to your good. - Ovid

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. - Romans 5:1-5

The same thing happened to me on Saturday with my race entry, so it took me a couple of days to rewrite it.

I assume it is because the session times out on you. To keep this from happening until I get around to coding up auto-save, just submit periodically and then re-edit if you are doing a long entry. I do this instinctively being the programmer and knowing how the system works, so it never bites me, which is probably why I have not gotten around to fixing it. If you do get a timeout after typing a long entry - back on the browser, open another browser tab or window, log in, then hit submit again.

Actually, it was a pretty short entry, without a lot of time between my login and pressing "submit". What happened was that I wanted to look at my previous week in the blog while I was typing the entry so that I could see my shoe mileage. So I clicked "My Blog" and opened another instance. This must have been what messed it up. I do this fairly often though, and it doesn't always cause a time-out.

From Sasha Pachev on Tue, Apr 10, 2007 at 22:55:28

This should not have caused a timeout. However, there are many ways to lose a session without a timeout - web server restart between the time you login and the time you submit, or just a browser bug that drops or mangles the session cookie. The solution for this is to implement the auto-save.

Same thing happened to me yesterday. Kind of strange that three of us have this happen all of a sudden.

Could be a bug in handling sessions on the server. See if you can make it happen again on purpose. Then I can debug it and fix it.
