Autosave feature during quiz taking

Hi Guys,

     Does anyone of you know how to implement an "auto-save" feature during quiz taking? This will auto-save students answers every interval so that in case students forget to click submit and internet is cutoff or their system hangs then they still have assurance that their answers are still saved.

     I noticed that clicking the submit button will save all their attempts and in turn rev-up the seq_number value in the question_states db. However, I'd like that this autosave feature won't revup the seq-number since this will generate a lot of entries in the db given that this is run every interval.

This has been discussed quite a few times. I implemented one way to do it and it seemed simple enough, but as Moodle now uses YUI that will never be in core as such. It might help to do a search in the forums "autosave", that will bring up quite a bit of discussion.
