Char fields don't correctly retain their values in Firefox 3.6

Hello,

I have checked your Issue at my end,

for Issue#1 : when Installing the UK chart of account , changing the #digits form 6 to 4. and it is work fine at my end. That's why I attached video, would you please check it.

for Issue#2 : In chart of account configuration, we are set the #digit as 6 and for the vat they are set to ST0 and PT0 for the generalise use.

And why you are suggesting that use 4 as the default number of digits. Also use "PT11" for purchase vat default code,and use "ST11" for sale vat default code.
Correct me If I am wrong!

would you please provide me more information regarding this issue.

Thanks!

Hi Amit!
Thank you for checking.

It looks like the problem where the wizard changes the 6 to a 4 is only when you use the 'search' option for the purchase/sales tax default. The pull-down works fine, or if no changes are made, the 4 will remain intact.

See my video attached which shows the issue.

On the second point, yes, the correct number of digits for this chart of accounts is 4 by default. This is what over 50% of companies in the UK use. I will see if I can find a link to support this information.

Also, currently the VAT rate in the UK is 20%. So the PT11 and ST11 codes are for this rate and should be the defaults for any UK company installing OpenERP.

kind regards
Colin

Just to confirm: in the UK as a generally accepted standard practice to use 4 digit account numbers, so if a user selects 4 and he gets 6 digits this is not good.

Hello,

for Issue#1 : I have checked at my end with latest revision, But still I not found the bug, It is working fine at my end. That's why I attached video, would you please check it.

Thanks!

Hi Amit, I mentioned in my earlier note that YES the 'drop-down' does work fine, BUT, if you use the search option in the many2one field, this is where the problem happens.

thanks

Hello,

Issue#1 : I have faced the problem in "Mozilla firefox". but In chromium web browser it is working fine. That's why I am setting this as low priority for web browser compatibility Issue and assign to web team.

Issue2# : On the second point,you are talk about the #code_digit and default tax. It is not a bug. but it is your suggestion.
That's why We can consider this is as your suggestion, so we are considering it as a "Wishlist".

Thanks!

Thank you Amit!

Note: this only affects Firefox 3.6,things work correctly from FF4 onwards (as well as in Safari) in my tests.

Fixed in Revision:

This is caused by anuUnknown bug in firefox <=3.6
In our case, input type=text dom onchange event is not fired when our tootip is shown.

As firefox 3.6 is not officially supported, I disabled tooltips for gecko version < 2
