An auto-save feature was recently added to vB4, so I figured it would be nice if we vB3 users could also get something similar
 While this this isn't a server-side solution, I think that it's still pretty solid, as it relies on the localStorage system in your browser, which is supported by Safari, FF 3.5+, Opera, Chrome, and IE8+. I have tested this on FF6, the latest Safari and Chrome, and IE9. I wrote it with IE8 in mind, but haven't tested IE8 as my forum skin doesn't support it (yup, it's a terrible browser). For now, I am marking this as a beta release until we're sure it works in all browsers that support localStorage and there aren't any outstanding bugs. Where does this work?
How does this work? You can start typing a post, close your browser, open the same page, and the post will still be there. Note that this mod keys data by URL in order to avoid collisions. The mod automatically and silently restores posts when possible. However, if the editor already contains something when you load the page (i.e. PM quick reply), then you will receive a prompt asking you whether or not you want to work with the recovered text. This mod works even if you disable the WYSIWYG editor and it will quite likely work with older versions of vB all the way down to 3.5. Installation Installation is simple.
HTML Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="$vboptions[bburl]/clientscript/vbulletin_autosave.js"></script> *the script tags must be placed after the editor text area element; this doesn't necessarily have to be the very end of the template, although it's good practice to do so License: You are free to use, modify, re-post and re-distribute the code as long as you credit me in the script comments. Improvements and derivatives are welcome! Note: This is a CLIENT-SIDE mod. Please be sure that any issues you may report aren't related to the fact that a. your browser is misconfigured or b. you are using an old/unsupported browser. Download Now

first, how do you know if it works, i have it installed, went to close browser (safari) in the middle of a post as you said to do and i get this message see attachment. Here is the code i put in all threads you mentioned and i placed the code after &footer in all templates you suggested. Also changed the .txt to .js and uploaded the file to the client script folder. Am i doing something wrong?
Thanks in advanced. <if condition="$show['member']"><script type="text/javascript" src="$vboptions[bburl]/clientscript/vbulletin_autosave.js"></script></if>

I as excited about this mod but it doesn't seem to do anything on 3.8.7 PL4
I installed it and get no errors but it just doesn't seem to do anything. Started typing a new thread, saved the URL and then closed the browser. Went to the link that I had save and there was nothing there. Am I misunderstanding how it works and/or how to test it?
