171669 - Javascript double-dropdowns

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect)

Description

[Stephan]

In all Mozilla versions up to / including 1.1:
There is a problem when there are two dropdowns available on a page, with the
options in the second dropdown triggered by a choice in the first one.

Instead of the intended operation, javascript causes the first dropdown to
return to the default startup choice.

I have noticed this problem, among other places, in the administrative consoles
of UBBthreads ( http://www.infopop.com/products/ubbthreads/ ) , a popular
discussion board software.

Browser, not engine. Not sure of ultimate component for this, 
but let's try HTML Form Controls for now. 

This report sounds familiar, and may be a dupe; but I haven't 
found it so far -

Reporter: Is this still a problem with a current Mozilla version? If yes, can
you give us some URL to a such a forum page?
