When I refresh a page using javascript then textbox contents will disappear. If I pass the contents of the text as parameter then the formatting of the text will change and also if length of the text increases then page does not refresh but gives javascript error. The text box contents can go upto 15000 characters. What is the best way to solve this problem? Please help in this issue. Iam stuck.... Any suggestions would be appreciated...

Hello,

If the content has sent to the server, it is possible to have the content filled in (from server) when people refresh the page.
If the data is not yet submitted to the server, it would depend on user's browser, in my knowledge.

Hi,
Thanks... I am using window.location.href in javascript by passing the parameters to the page. The problem may be (not sure) that the length of the URL is exceeding the limit for Internet Explorer. At present its been tested on IE. This error happens when the contents of the parameters is beyond some limit which I am not able to estimate. The javascript returns an error 'Invalid syntax'.

I am not sure what is your idea to achieve this. You can use the form's submit button and make a preview page, as most websites do this way.
You can try "post" or "get" method, this could be easier than JavaScript's refresh method.
