Description

1. Ask to add a new publication
2. Add a new author and start editing it
3. While editing the author, hit Submit on the whole form (without entering title &c)
4. Observe that the page comes back with the author fields "closed up" but with the edit/save button still labelled Save Author rather than Edit Author

Expected behaviour was:

4. Button is labelled Edit Author

History

#1 Updated by Chris Cannam about 13 years ago

  • Description updated (diff)
  • Priority changed from Normal to High

Probably the same bug, but with more serious consequences:

1. Ask to add a new publication
2. Hit Submit without adding any authors, and leaving at least one mandatory field empty
3. Observe that the page comes back with errors on it, in apparently correct condition
4. Click to add an author
5. Observe that the author edit form is now incorrectly in "closed" form, but the text fields in it are in fact editable and the save button is labelled Save rather than Edit

Expected behaviour was:

5. Author edit form is in "open" form

I've just noticed that when you edit a publication all of its edit/save buttons come up labelled Save Author instead of Edit Author -- that's pretty serious. Not sure whether this is technically the same bug but it's certainly quite similar.
