When navigating away from a page in APEX, you may get the message “Leave site? Changes may not be saved”. Clicking on “cancel” won’t give you an indication of what you changed. Anton and Hayden take you through how to get APEX to tell you which item has been changed to make sure you’re saving what you should. This tip is based on a blog by Martin D’Souza.
