Description Alberto Garcia Gonzalez (reporter) 2009-11-21 17:48:43 UTC

SOFTWARE VERSION:
42-11

EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM:
1. Open about:config in the browser
2. Find a setting with a numeric value (e.g. browser.history_expire_days)
3. Try to change it

EXPECTED OUTCOME:
The value can be changed

ACTUAL OUTCOME:
A dialog appears with a text entry, but there's no way to
alter its contents.

REPRODUCIBILITY:
always

OTHER COMMENTS:
Other types of settigs (boolean, string) work fine.

The dialog for changing an integer is not even hildonized (as opposed
to the dialog for changing a string).

I assume we talk about settings with Type == integer here when you say
"Numeric".

I cannot reproduce this in internal 2.2009.47-18 as I can change the value
after clicking into the field, but there's definitely a bug around.

Removing the value in the "Enter integer value" dialog by using backspace makes
the OK button greyed out. Entering a new value does not enable it again.

OK button works for me when changing e.g. "0" to "02" and then removing the
"0".
This change also survives restarting the browser (have not tested rebooting the
device).

For future reference, exact titles of dialogs are welcome for searchability.
:-)

Yes, of course :-)

Good to know! With 42-11 the problem definitely happens, Valério
confirmed it too on IRC.

I thought it was obvious in this case, but I'll try to give more
details in the future :)
