    I spent 30-40 minutes digging up and entering medical visits into MedExpress and the effer timed me out on the last entry with no warning. None of it saved.

    It's software written by government contractors. It's not supposed to work all the time.

    That may be some obscure HIPAA regulation or guideline. Start a bank transaction, and walk away, and it will time out.

    I have no problem with that. But a 90 second countdown would seem appropriate.

    My bank site does a pop-up about closing the session, but if you don't notice it ...

    Kyleb, the most common error is to have any punctuation in any data field. Then, it won't allow you to move off the page. That information is actually buried in the pull downs but it shoudl be prominent. It's the #1 cause of aviators tryign to drive a stake through their machine.

    Yeah I love that the pop up doesn't pop UP into view.
