Build ID: 20090619-0625 Steps To Reproduce: 1. Open the RAP Controls Demo in IE (my version is IE8) 2. Go to Focus Tab. 3. Click with mouse in the Text field next to the Check Box 4. Press the 'delete' key: it works as expected in my browser. 5. Now click with mouse in the next Text field (it is a multiline field). 6. Press the 'delete' key: no character will be deleted. This is an unexpected behavior. 7. Click a second time in the same field and then press again the 'delete' key: now it works fine. 8. Leave the last text field with 'tab' key pressing. 9. Now repeat again steps 5-6: the same unexpected behavior. More information: This bug appears only in IE. It could be reproduced, according to me, in different scenarios, but only in layouts that contain at least two editable text fields. P.S. There is a thread in the RAP Newsgroup, called "setFocus widget in IE8 vs. Mozilla" (http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/article.php?id=7162&group=eclipse.technology.rap#7162), that indicates this issue for the first time. Please, look at the complaint there for completeness.
This bug appeared after patching the qx-library with patch, proposed by Qooxdoo to fix bug 264195 (see Comment #3). After revert to the previous state (before the mentioned patch), the bug explained here doesn't appear. Bug 264195 also is not experienced any more (tested with scenarios explained in the bug). Tested with IE 8, FF 3.5.2, Safari 4, Chrome 2.
Corresponding Qooxdoo bug has been opened: http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2734
Qooxdoo reverted their bug fix, mentioned in comment #1. I have tested it once again in RAP. It looks OK - this bug doesn't appear, bug 264195 also.
Fixed by removing the patch for bug 264195.
(In reply to comment #4) > Fixed by removing the patch for bug 264195. This problem is not only with 'Del' button, but with ctrl+v too, copy some text and click on any text field and then press ctrl+v, notice that nothing appeares in the selected text field. Now click again and then press ctrl+v, now the content from clip board appears in the text field. All text fields in dailog need two clicks, this a big usability issue. Strangely this problem doesn't happen with FF. Is there any work around for this issue? I am using rap 1.2.

I didnot check with 1.3M5, I am using rap 1.2, what I want is a work around to solve this issue. setting focus on one of the text field doesn't solve the problem. Can I do something as a workaround till I move to 1.3?

Can I do something as a workaround till I move to 1.3? I am afraid there is no workaround - at least I am not aware of.
