Description Karl Matthias CLA 2009-11-18 17:24:34 EST 
The dot notation used for project naming in the NPPR should support 3 levels of project, e.g.

technology.dash.dashboard

But it should not support any more than 3 levels.  E.g. The following are illegal names:

modeling.mdt.imm.releng
technology.dash.dashboard.releng

Oddly, from my testing yesterday afternoon, it doesn't appear that the javascript currently supports even three levels deep.  I'm not sure how a 4 level deep was even created.
Comment 2 Wayne Beaton CLA 2009-11-19 12:43:39 EST 
Maybe JavaScript support was turned off?
Comment 3 Karl Matthias CLA 2009-11-19 12:56:04 EST 
Yeah I was just looking at the code and thinking the same thing.
Comment 4 Karl Matthias CLA 2009-11-19 13:00:09 EST 
Egads... looks like the only validation is done in javascript.  That must change.

The form definitely doesn't even support 3rd level projects with Javascript enabled.  Do we fix all of this, or implement bug 188980 and bug 187726 at the same time?

Bug 295643 requests some unrelated changes. Maybe you can look at that while you're poking at the NPPR :-)

I'm still waiting to know if we're going to do as I mentioned in comment 4 or if you just want the existing form patched up.

My sense is that just the UI design aspects of moving this to the portal will be very time consuming. My recommendation is to just patch up the existing page.

This works today. Marking as FIXED.
