I was hours into entering information into an online job application and accidentally closed the tab; is the information I entered saved or backed up somewhere

more options

I was hours into filling in a detailed job application on-line, a fill-in-the-blanks web-based form, when I thought by closing a tab I would simply be going back a page. Instead, it closed the entire form. The form didn't have a separate save function. When I reopened the tab all information I entered had disappeared. Can Session Restore or some other function access the version of the application containing the information?

This happened

Just once or twice

== I closed a tab thinking I would be moving back to another section of the document.

Did you already read through your History and even temp files? You should be able to reopen the page/tab. (I feel your pain...hope you get your form back)
