No, I would say that is a bug. As far as I know, IE won't keep the form contents if the user clicks back after clicking away. So in some common cases, this will lose the user's data. Losing data is generally a bad thing. A couple possible solutions which I haven't fully thought-out: - Attach a false-returning click event handler to '.preview :link', with some sort of "this is a preview" notification to explain why clicking is doing nothing. - A whole draft & autosave system so incomplete posts are never lost under any normal circumstances.

Hi there!
Does anybody know why when previewing a node its title appears with a link to "/node"? I have seen some users accidentally clicking on this link and loosing their content.
Is there a reason why the title appears with a link?
This is a support question. The preview flows through all of the normal node view methods and shows the teaser and the node to the user as it would be if the user saves and publishes the node. However, I agree that it would be a nice feature that the preview link would just wrap to itself.
