Description Sabine Neubauer CLA 2012-03-14 06:19:22 EDT
Build Identifier: 

If a non editable but enabled text field is focused and an user presses "backspace" the browser jumps back to the former shown side (default browser action). This behavior is not really intuitive and has changed since RAP 1.1.

The problem was already topic of issue 178320 which was fixed for RAP 1.1.1. I have tested RAP 1.4 and RAP 1.5 M5. 

Because I was not sure whether this is a bug or desired behavior, I have started a discussion in the newsgroup: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/309524/

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a text widget and make it read only by setEditable(false)
2. click on the text field
3. press backspace
-> history back action of browser is triggered

I tried to reproduce this without luck. What browser are you using?
Comment 2 Sabine Neubauer CLA 2012-03-15 11:48:32 EDT
I mark this bug as resolved worksforme because the problem was caused by the used theme which is based on a former version of business theme. After removing the toolbar layer in ViewStackPresentation this problem was gone as well as further problems concerning the focus of text fields or table cells in a view.

Many thanks for having a look at this issue and sorry for your time.
