It is not timeout Karen. It is the timer re starts instead of submitting the
exam. and the test starts from Question No.1. but all the questions remain
checked.. I mean the test do not begin from the beginning but just the timer
starts again and exam goes to question 1. I hope you are clear with this.

Is this patch being fixed in 2.7.1 as well in package that is available
online on subversion? or do we have to integrate the patch? We are not using
FF4 or 5 we are using 3.6 but issue is exactly what was there on
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAM-1244. I am facing the same problem
as mentioned there.
