I've had this complaint from one member after another on my sites (and had it happen to me too).  My only suggestion is: right click/select all, right click/copy and do that every time you are posting anything (do it in the HTML window if you are posting more than text).   Then, should the page expire, you can go back and 'paste'.

Try to use ajaxify plugin that will do this for you.

These issues have come up repeatedly with Elgg.  They are being taken seriously and have been addressed in 1.8.

Believe Brett.

"Believe Brett."

Ok. It was you who said 24 minutes Kevin, so I wanted to be sure!!

I'll add a warning that they have a hour to complete it.

The two discussions are about different things. I was referring to a login cookie. Brett was referring to the security tokens.
