365128 - "edit" text should change to something else when the edit field is open

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Christian :Biesinger (don't email me, ping me on IRC)]

If I click the QA contact's "edit" link, the text field appears but the "edit" text doesn't change, even though it hides the textbox when I click it again.

What would you change it to?  I have no idea how to improve on this, personally.

Not sure... "unedit"? "hide"?

[Justin Dolske [:Dolske]]

The mockup I did at http://people.mozilla.com/~dolske/bugzilla/ is a possible idea... When you click "edit", the normal text of the field is replaced with a text input box (containing the same value), and the "edit" link disappears.

The UI may very well change for the next bugzilla update, but this would be an easy enough workaround if needed in the interm.

Rearranging this component to not have me as the default assignee, so that it doesn't appear like I'm intending to work on bugs that other people could be taking care of if they didn't think I was already doing them.  If this bug is a software issue on b.m.o and you'd like to fix it, the modified source is now available for the patching (see bug 373688).  Reassigning to the new default owner.

The "edit" text now disappears when it is clicked.
