Is anyone else having this problem. I go to saved article draft, and the text from it has completely disappeared. All the articles I am currently writing don't have any of the content I put into them.

Refresh your page and it should come back. 

Some of them are appearing now, but one still has no text in it.

Which one is it? I can see if I can retrieve the text from the database on the server side.

My Spongebob video game article. Yeah, I don't know why the content is gone now. I just checked it the other day and everything was there.

Frustrated. Was working on some articles for a few hours and saving my progress. One mistake and all was deleted. If you save as draft then hit the preview button it adds blank lines at the top of the draft editing page. It is easy as they accumulate to knock your pictures and text down below the viewable window. A simple fix is to delete these lines every few times you preview your article. I had gotten into this habit. I was then also saving the progress after returning to the editing draft page. However if you attempt to save your progress immediately after returning to the editing page from the preview you have to wait to allow the article so far to load prior to saving. If you save prior to it loading it will save as just the blank screen and all your progress is lost as it has been overwritten and saved over. I guess I will take a break for awhile then come back to it when I feel better about redoing it.

That sucks. Sorry this happened man. I could never figure out why the lines get added in certain situations. There must be something in the code that is causing it to happen.

This probably doesn't help, but I tend to do all my writing, editing, etc in a seperate word processsor program, then copy over the finished product. That can casuse its own little formatting glitches (I never do seem to know what my article is going ot look like when it spits out the other side :-p ), but will at least avoid the disappearing text.
