[Geoserver-users] Style editor in GS 2.6 beta does not work on Windows

Hi,

I tried to test the new Preview legend button of GS 2.6 but the style editor is somehow broken at least on my Windows 7 with jre7-64 bit (Oracle). For example starting to create a new style by loading an existing one just does not work. Once the existed style is selected from the list and I press the Copy... link nothing happens. With GS 2.5.2 I get a dialogue which asks "Really want to overwrite the current editor contents?" Now the button does not seem to do anything. Same thing with the Validate button and the new Preview legend button.

My browser is Firefox 31.0. As I said, GS 2.5.2 does not suffer from these problems.

Jared made a pull request to upgrade the editor component some time ago,
and I've
followed it up by adding a browser detection bit (because this new editor
does not
work on old IE versions).
This might be the cause.

Jared, any chance you have time to look into it?

Cheers
