I went ahead and created a class that will set up the scripting for you to save the draft locally so it will be available to the user even if they close their browser and without having to save it to a database. When class is made available to the public, I will recommend it for you.

Auto saving drafts is accomplished through ajax. There is a jquery plugin or there may be something on phpclasses sister site jsclasses.org

PHP AutoSave Form Draft: Save form input values in browser storage as draft

This class can save form input values in browser storage as draft.

It generates JavaScript code periodically will save the values of the fields of a given form to local browser storage.

The code can restore the values of the field values in case the form is not submitted and the field values were lost because the browser closed or for some other reason.

The time interval on which the form draft values are saved is configurable.

The list of fields to be saved and the type of browser storage to be used is also configurable. Currently it supports HTML5 session or local storage.
