Package: webcalendar
Version: 0.9.45-2
Severity: normal
We discovered that in (at least some versions of) Internet Explorer 6
for Windows, an attempt to create a weekly repeating event fails because
the option for selecting the day on which to repeat does not appear.
The problem does not appear in IE5.1/Mac, Firefox 1.0, or Konqueror 3.3.1.
I tracked the problem to an apparent IE Javascript bug, where the
Javascript document.getElementById('day') method returns an element
with the NAME of 'day', rather than the one with the ID of 'day',
if the former appears first. In this case it was a SELECT NAME="day"
element rather than the TD ID="day" element.
I was able to work around the IE bug by changing the ID of the affected element
to 'repeatday' rather than just 'day', since no other elements on the page have
an ID *or* a NAME or 'repeatday'.
