Question

Hi, I was testing the simultaneous edit feature using 2 client workstations, where I clicked on the save buttons of the 2 browsers at the same time. However, TWiki did not flag out the expected simultaneous edit warning message on either of the browser. Instead, the two browsers both displayed one of the two versions of the edit, and the other version just got lost. But if I click on the Save button one browser at a time, then I could see the expected warning message saying someone was editing the text and so on... Am I missing out something, or is the simultaneous edit function based on some sorts of timing information, and if so, what is the granularity of the time resolution?

Environment

It looks like you where using one and the same user. TWiki supports simultaneous edit sessions of different users.
