Whenever we try to create a VM and some parameter is wrong (ex: missing CDROM path) the process results in an error and when we come back to the VM creation screen ALL parameters are gone.
This is an usability problem that needs to be resolved.

That's odd, your browser should preserve the contents of fields when you click the back button.

Ir does NOT preserve the contents. It brings the old contents as options for auto-completing the fields if the user starts writing on them, but after pressing the back button the contents are blank.

Do all of the fields come back empty for you, or just some of them?
In my tests with Firefox on Linux, this works as expected.

Clarification: the back button DOES bring the contents. But the user does NOT press the back button because just below the error there is a
<--- back to the previous page
link, that is put there by Cloudmin.
When the user clicks over that link - which is the logical thing to do - the user is brought to the previous page without any contents.

Ok, I see the mis-feature that is causing that - I will fix it in the next Webmin release.

This problem seems to be fixed. I'm closing this issue.
