: I've got an online form that's fairly long, and has become a source of great frustration because whenever a user resizes their browser window, the data they've already entered into the form disappears, so they have to start all over....does anybody know of a workaround for this problem?

Well you'll not be able to use the onResize event handler as thats after the event and not before.
What you could do is store a copy of the form field values in a parent frame, and then retrieve then using the onResize event handler.
Or you could put the form in a popup window that you set so that it can't be resized - althoug I think the min/max icon still works.
