<SCRIPT>
function fnSave(){
   var oTimeNow = new Date(); // Start Time
   oTimeNow.setMinutes(oTimeNow.getMinutes() + 1);
   var sExpirationDate = oTimeNow.toUTCString();

   oPersistDiv.expires = sExpirationDate;
   oPersistDiv.setAttribute("sData",oPersistText.value);
   // Save the persistence data as "sTimeout".
   oPersistDiv.save("sTimeout");
