#27429 [Fbk->Bgs]: Search auto-completion bug in Opera

ID: 27429 Updated by: goba@php.net Reported By: woom76 at hotmail dot com -Status: Feedback +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Website problem Operating System: Windows XP PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Since this is a browser bug, we will not be able to fix it... Other browsers behave better here :) That comment might look odd, I have not digged into why that number needs to be even, this code was written by several people... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-29 23:34:14] postings-php-bug at hans-spath dot de I think this is a browser bug. I've not found a way to "fix" this behavior with JS. By the way: Goba, would you agree that this comment is a bit "odd"?: > // how many matches to show at most (must be even!) > fh_showmatches=29; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-28 14:13:45] goba@php.net If there is a way to position the cursor in the input field, please provide us some info. Otherwise we will not be able to fix this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-28 13:20:51] woom76 at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ In Opera 7.23, the cursor does not move to the end of the text when auto-completion is used. Instead, the cursor stays at its current position and the auto-completed text appears after it. This makes it troublesome to add text after the auto-completed part, as the user will have to manually move the cursor to the end of the text field. This bug occurs with both the drop-down list and the space bar methods. Expected result: ---------------- e.g. "aspell_[CURSOR]" (This is the behaviour of Mozilla 1.6 and Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1) Actual result: -------------- "asp[CURSOR]ell_" (This is |wrong|. :P) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27429&edit=1
