How do you use the "draft" function?

On the tool bar above the entry box is an icon named "Drafts". It looks like a floppy disk. How is it used? Can you start a post, save it to somewhere and come back later and work on the post.

Thanks,

Yes you can manually save a draft but you don't have to. The forum already auto saves anything you type in the post box. As long as you do not hit the post button whatever you typed will be there even if you navigate away from the page and come back.

If you come back and don't want to post what was saved then you can use the delete draft button.

John, I can no longer seem to recover anything I've erased by accident. There are times I'd like to use the drafts function - like saving a partly written post overnight, but can't figure out how to use it. Where is the draft saved, etc.....
