112233 - onChange event being triggered by javascript

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 112241

(Core :: DOM: Events, defect)

Description

[Ray Aspeitia]

on versions previous to 0.9.6 (2001112011), tried with 094 and 095, the
following function would behave as follows:

1) person selects "Other" from dropdown
2) Prompt box comes up asking for input
3) Enter input into field and accept "OK"
4) 2nd dropdown option is filled in with input and selected

Now, after step (3) the prompt box comes up again as if another onChange event
was triggered and stays in a loop. (cancel prompt to get out of loop. NOTE that
last action was executed before the event was triggered)

Please advise on what could have changed in this version to cause this.

I see this loop as well. Build ID: 2001 11 27 03. Windows 2000.

Looks like bug 112241 (recursive onChange) to me.

What changed was a rewrite of most of the form control back end.

Good eye!  The only reason this one doesn't segfault is the manual
intervention--you eventually hit Cancel and the recursion stops there because
.text doesn't get set.
