JavaScript on some ticket form elements not working in Opera 9.10

[kontakt at meitzner dot net]

I'm using Opera v9.10 as my default and development Browser. When managing tickets with trac, I cannot set the resolution or reassign the ticket, because the greyed-out Form elements are not activated by Javascript. It works in Firefox though, so I hope it's not a bug in Opera… :-/

It'd be grand if you could fix that because it's a bit of a PITA switching between two resource-hogs :-)

Verified with Opera 9.02 (Windows).

A workaround is to select resolve (or reassign) then click Preview. This will enable the corresponding control.

This can help while waiting for a fix…

[Christian Boos]

Fixed by r5103. Before that, I tried with a more recent jQuery version, but it didn't help. I didn't find a bug report for that either, so I'm not exactly sure of the reason why the CSS style selector failed.

[Christian Boos]

After some more testing, it seems that Opera returns an <input> element when queried for #action (even when using directly document.getElementById("action")). The HTML source contains only one element with that id, and that's the <fieldset id="action"> element which contains the different actions…

cboos: can this ticket be closed?

It does sound like this is an Opera bug though, so the OP should probably still report the issue to them.

verified on IE 6.

thanks!

[Christian Boos]

Yes, we can close it. It's a strange issue, though, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's not the final word about it ;-)

Filed as Opera bug #257542. I'm not an experienced bug reporter, hope I described everything correctly. Actually I posted a link to this Ticket for reference.

btw: patched my ticket_view.html with your changes and it works now. Thanks a lot!
