After saving preferences, a message is displayed that says "Your preferences have been saved.". But if I keep doing changes to my preferences, and I leave my computer, then when I come back in front of my screen, I don't remember whether or not my changes have been saved. Some JavaScript code could automatically hide this message when changing preferences.
