[Geoserver-devel] Some checkboxes do not work with Firefox

Hi,

The button that works looks like this in Firebug:

Enabled

The button that does not listen looks like this in Firebug:

Enabled

By making the non-responsing check box code to look similar than the responding one by removing the pair with Firebug the check box started to listen to me while still open in Firefox.

I apologize, I am still not a programmer and couldn’t find in which file and where in the code these extra spans are.

Hi,

There is this open ticket about not responding check box

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-6036

I found another similar case on the Edit Raster Data Source page where the “Enabled” check box can’t be toggled with Firefox 35.0.1 on Windows. The Editable box on the vector store page works. I wonder if it could it be possible to do some Find-Replace operation in the UI code and try to change all boxes which do not work into same kind of boxes which work on the vector store page.

I wish it was that easy. The issue is CSS related, does not have anything to do with the UI control chosen. Someone with good understanding of how Firefox interprets the CSS is needed to solve the issue.

If memory serves me right, It’s the hit area of other nearby HTML elements that is covering the checkbox making it impossible to click.

Cheers

Andrea
