Autosave functionality in peoplesoft

Question

hi, i've placed an autosave code (which i've got in the internet) in an HTML area (property is constant) then when I access the page where the code has been included, I've encountered an IE error which states:
Char: 41
Error: Expected '{'
here's the code being used:
<script type="text/javascript">
pollingInterval = 5000;
threadLock = false;
saveMessage = "saved";
function addLoadEvent(func) {
var oldonload = window.onload;
if (typeof window.onload != function()) {
window.onload = func();
else
window.onload = function()
oldonload();
func();
function timeoutHandler(){
clearTimeout(SaveTimeout);
SaveTimeout = setTimeout("autosave()",pollingInterval);
function autosave(){
var changes = checkFormChanged(document.%formname);
if (changes && !threadLock) {
threadLock = true;
if ("%page" == "EP_APPR_BASE1")
$('input[@name=ICAction]').attr({value: 'EP_BTN_LINK_WRK_EP_STORE_PB'});
else
$('input[@name=ICAction]').attr({value: 'EP_BTN_LINK_WRK_EP_STORE_PB$19$'});
update_defaults(document.%formname);
var params = $('form[@name=%formname]').fastSerialize();
$.ajax({ type: "POST",
url: $('form[@name=%formname]').attr("action"),
data: $.param( params ),
dataType: "xml",
success:
function(msg, msg2)
$('input[@name=ICChanged]').attr({value: '0'});
var searchFor = "'ICStateNum' value='";
var stateNumStart = msg.responseText.indexOf(searchFor) + searchFor.length;
var stateNumEnd = msg.responseText.indexOf("'", stateNumStart);
var newState = msg.responseText.substr(stateNumStart, stateNumEnd - stateNumStart);
$('input[@name=ICStateNum]').attr({value: newState});
display_notification();
SaveTimeout = setTimeout ( "autosave()", pollingInterval );
var SearchFor = null;
var stateNumStart = null;
var stateNumEnd = null;
threadLock = false;
else
SaveTimeout = setTimeout ( "autosave()", pollingInterval);
function display_notification(){
var topValue = window.pageYOffset;
if (! topValue )
topValue = document.documentElement.scrollTop;
if (! topValue )
topValue = document.body.scrollTop;
var topValue = topValue.toString() + "px";
notification.css({top: topValue});
$("body").append(notification);
notification.fadeIn("fast",
function(){
setTimeout("fade_notification()", 2000);
topValue = null;
function fade_notification(){
notification.fadeOut("slow",
function(){
notification.remove();
function start_autosave(){
if ("%PAGE" == "EP_APPR_MAIN1" || "%PAGE" == "EP_APPR_BASE1")
if ($('input[@name=ICChanged]').val() != 0){
SaveTimeout = setTimeout ( "autosave()", 1);
else
SaveTimeout = setTimeout ( "autosave()", pollingInterval );
$('body').keypress(timeoutHandler);
submitAction_%Formname = function(form, name){
form = $('form')[0];
$('body').css({cursor: "wait"});
function submit_the_form()
form.ICAction.value=name;
form.ICXPos.value=getScrollX();
form.ICYPos.value=getScrollY();
processing_%Formname(1,3000);
form.ICResubmit.value=nResubmit;
form.submit();
nResubmit++;
function check_for_lock()
if (threadLock){
setTimeout("submitAction_%Formname('" + %formname + "','" + name + "')",250);
else{
submit_the_form();
check_for_lock();
if ("%page" == "EP_APPR_MAIN1" || "%page" == "EP_APPR_BASE1")
addLoadEvent(start_autosave);
</script>

i guess you are trying to use ERMS(email reponse management system in CRM) either support desk or help desk.
u need to configure a whole setup in order to make this functionality work.
please make clear whether this is the one you are trying to achieve.
ERMS functionality in short: it has all mail box servers in place. once the mail comes from a user to a mail box, based on content and information the email is routed back to respective mailing list. the person picks the mail and replies back to the mail box which routes back to the user requested.
it uses process schedulers,IB gateways, nodes,SMTP servers to do the job.
Thnks!
