Have you ever filled out a large form and accidently hit back, closed your tab, or even closed your browser?
savant.js solves this problem with easy to use, true form persistence. Forms will remain as is for whatever amount of seconds you set (default 300). You can even skip sensitive fields, such as password fields.
bower install savantjs
- jQuery
Add the script inside your head tags.
<script src="/js/savant.min.js"></script>
Before your body close tag add this script.
<script>
$(function(){
$('.savant-form').savantForm({
expiresin: 300 //number of seconds to persist (default 5 minutes)
});
});
</script>
- Add the class "savant-form" to any form you wish to have persistence.
- Add the class "savant-skip" to any field you wish to not persist.
