2010-10-13 Thread Jarmo Pertman

Or try
$b.text_field(:name, password).value = text

instead of #set, without invoking any JavaScript events. Also, you
could ask from the developers what the hell did they think with that
onfocus event when they did that :)

 basically, you're not going to be able to type into the mockPassword field
 because when you focus it, it hides itself and gives you another field. try
 something like:

 $b.text_field(:name, mockPassword).focus
 $b.text_field(:name, password).set(pass_word)

Re: [wtr-general] Re: Difficulty typing into textfield

2010-10-13 Thread Ethan

I can answer what the developers were thinking, I believe - they were
thinking I want the word 'password' to be seen in this text field as a sort
of help-text, but when the user clicks on it, I want that to disappear and
their password should show up as asterisks like normal. If the field is
initially a password type, then the default value shows up as '*'s rather
than as 'password'. Various sites do various bits of hackery (usually CSS)
to have help-text-like stuff in password fields. This is one of the poorer
implementations I've seen.

your onfocus event seems to do some interesting stuff.

onfocus=jQuery('#mockPassword').hide();jQuery('#password').show();jQuery('#password').focus();

basically, you're not going to be able to type into the mockPassword field
because when you focus it, it hides itself and gives you another field. try
something like:
