Bug in Firefox? after onclick event mapviewer go up. (Digitalizing and Readlining function)

[maciej.skorczewski@…]

I observe strange thing in Firefox Browser. Allways when you use Digitalizing and Readlining function like:

DigitizeLine() etc...

the mapviewerpane go up! (map area) (all mapviewer move on top) sometimes 10px and more up!

IE don't have any problem whit this... function are call by OnClick event. (in BUTTON ) ex. <input type=button name=ev1 OnClick=DigitizeLine()>

look on screen

1. map on begin

PATCH: after onclick event mapviewer go up. (Digitalizing and Readlining function).

The problem here is how Firefox handles the focus event. If you have a look a the StartDigitizing() function in ajaxmappane.templ you will notice that at the end of the function a line like this:

document.getElementById("KeyTarget").focus();

This ensures that the input "KeyTarget" captures the key pressed by the user. It seems that FF forces a minimum height when focusing this input.

What worked for me was making it invisible, but only in non IE browsers (IE 6 doesn't allow focus on hidden objects). For instance, in the InitDocument() function you could use something like:

if(!msie) document.getElementById("KeyTarget").style.display = "none";

A fix was suggested by Maciej Skórczewski - also applies to this error, which incidentally is back in 1.2 Beta2

1. try turn on properties pane.

2. edit ajaxmappane.templ (on end of files modyfity)

<input id="KeyTarget"

type="text" onKeyDown="return KeyPressed(event);" style="position: absolute; left: 0px; right: 0px; width: 0px; height: 0px" >

to

<input id="KeyTarget"

type="hidden" onKeyDown="return KeyPressed(event);" style="position: absolute; left: 0px; right: 0px; width: 0px; height: 0px" >

Possibly additional info in #68

Just some more info, but only from the perspective of bug #68

The problem seems to manifest itself if the properties pane is turned off in the web layout.

This is in MG 1.2.0RC2
