[pmwiki-users] Save and Edit with Preview

[Dominique Faure]

Hi,

Maybe you need to organize the edit form in the same mood as what you
have on discogs.com: While editing record releases on discogs, the
input form shows only a "preview/submit" button. Once triggered the
editing form is reloaded with a preview AND the real submit button
display.
