I just forced a timeout so I could prove you wrong, but it looks like it's fixed! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Previously (prior to last weekend maybe?), once the OK confirmation on the Javascript timeout popup was clicked, I would get a page somewhat similar to a 404, but more cryptic. Since I can now recover my research MOS tabs, the timeout issue is MUCH less of a hassle to me. I give Oracle Support their due props for that fix!

Yong also mentioned my Check4Change workaround, which had broken with the HTML version of MOS prior to this past weekend. Perhaps I'll check to see if it works again, which I suspect it will since a browser refresh on my tabs also now works.

I needed this good news today.... :) Thanks!
