Description David Cook 2020-08-19 05:13:41 UTC
The keep_text function in koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/js/staff-global.js is functional but not very readable.

We can simplify it.

Bug 26248: Simplify keep_text function used in header search

The current code is functional but not very readable. This patch
simplifies the code to be more readable and to be more efficient.

To test:
1) Apply patch
2) Refresh browser cache
3) Type "A" in "Check out" tab
4) Click "Check in" (and other tabs)
5) Observe that text is persisted from original tab
6) Type "B" in "Search the catalog" tab
7) Click "Renew" tab
8) Observe that text is persisted from latest changed tab
Comment 2 David Cook 2020-08-19 05:25:27 UTC
Hmm working fine on mainpage.pl but having an issue clicking on "Search the catalog" on search.pl...
Comment 3 David Cook 2020-08-19 05:35:53 UTC
For some reason that tab is passing an index value of 4 rather than 3...
Comment 4 David Cook 2020-08-19 05:41:25 UTC
Ahh the keep_text isn't set correctly in "koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/cat-search.inc"

I believe there is still a small glitch here:
When I 
- enter something in one tab
- move to the next
- empty the input field
- switch tab again
- the deleted string reappears

Hmm weird. I thought that I'd thoroughly tested this. 

I probably don't have time to work on this again for a long time, but that's a useful note!

I don't recall why I cared about this in the first place...
