[TYPO3-core] RFC #16636: Bug: Suggest wizard does not work with drop-down select fields

[François Suter]

REMINDER #2

> This is an SVN patch request.
>
> Type: Bugfix
>
> Bugtracker references:
> http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=16636
>
> Branches:
> 4.4, 4.5 and trunk
>
> Problem:
> When the suggest wizard is used in conjunction with a size=1 select
> field (i.e. a simple drop-down field), selecting a suggested item does
> not modify the value of the select field.
>
> Solution:
> Adapt the relevant JavaScript so that it can work with a simple select
> field too.
>
> Test scenario:
> 1) install the test extension attached to the bug tracker entry. This
> adds a "Owner" field to the pages table. It appears in the "Extended"
> tab and relates to the be_users table.
> 2) start typing some user name in the wizard, select one of the
> suggestions => nothing happens
> 3) apply the patch
> 4) try step 2 again, it should work.
>
> Notes:
> 1) The v4.5 version of the patch also applies to trunk.
> 2) Of course, for trunk, it would be better to clean up the whole JS and
> finally move it to a separate file, but that would be a different RFC.
>
> Cheers
