On Clicking Back Button on a fom, unsaved data is getting saved

Posted on by 305

When form has some unsaved data, usually it requires clicking on the save button in order to save the changes.

However when the back button is clicked , the unsaved data is saved.

This feels odd, one would expect that on clicking the back button, the unsaved changes either get cancelled

Can this behaviour be changed

I have the same question (0)

    This behavior occurs if Autosave is enabled (it is enabled by default), to get a warning etc you need to disable the autosave. Advanced Settings->Administration->System Settings then turn off "Enable Autosave on All Forms".
