Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 597303
Add IE support to SearchBar
Last modified: 2010-08-12 12:52:35 EDT
Description of problem: The original SearchBar was written by injecting <span> elements with floated styles into the innerHTML for <option> elements under the combobox representing the suggestions. This worked well on FF, had alignment issues on Chrome/Safari, but outright failed to render on IE at all. How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load the inventory browser for resources or groups 2. Position the cursor in the search bar Actual results: Nothing happens on IE. Expected results: A panel should popup and display search assistance / suggestions to the user as he or she types.
commit 11e04e1ad95d6c06a24a8b3e8a27fa3ac1732f9e Author: Joseph Marques <joseph@redhat.com> Date: Fri May 28 11:53:12 2010 -0400 BZ-597303: fix auto-completion / suggest code so that it's cross-browser * fork the GWT SuggestBox component, which uses a custom MenuBar approach * integrate rest of assistance algorithm into this component * change styles so that SearchBar looks more consistent across browsers
Whoops, this bug should have been moved to ON_QA back at the end of May. General SearchBar support for IE is in, but there may be smaller bugs on specific versions of IE - those are already being tracked in separate BZs.
This seems to be OK in IE7 and IE8...
QA Verified.
Mass-closure of verified bugs against JON.
