--- Comment #4 from Neil Kandalgaonkar <[email protected]> 2011-06-02 21:29:23 UTC --- Gregor: I am not convinced that users are more familiar with forms that mutate themselves and add new fields. That's pretty rare. However, the widget could work better. Or at least it should notice that a category has been left un-added. The main problem is that we have to be ready for categories that have spaces in them. Other 'tagging' interfaces use the convention that when the user presses space, the tag is complete. So they either convert a textarea of space-delimited tags afterwards, or they transform the text as you type it. However, our Categories have spaces within them, and we want people to mostly use pre-existing Categories, so we want a single field that autocompletes. And we need some signal that the Category name is complete, that isn't shown by typing whitespace. Hitting return would be worse since that's the convention for submitting a form. So that's why there is a button. I tried to avoid this button but I couldn't see how. If anyone has a better idea please make it known. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
