System Error (in General)

A small one but:

editing a wiki page, after the edit I saved. But I forgot to edit a few other things, so I pressed back and back on the browser so I was back on the same edit page again.

Not opening a new edit page. Doing my edit and tried to save it again. That resulted in an error on the page.

Did another test on another page, resulted in the same thing

I think I know why:


You edited and saved the edit.
Then you go back to the page before your edit.
Then you input more info there but you are working in an OLD page.
Then you try to over write the new version with an newer version but you come from an old version.

Updating a version 3 from a version 1 while you already saved version 2 is making you get the System Error. Just don't save that way because it's not built that way.

Edit the just new saved page instead.

very much true Shade, but it shouldn't result in a system error

Why not? You are trying to make a change which is impossible by the system, hence the error.

Otherwise it could give a warning page but that hasn't been coded by Jon/NS :)
