RT3.5.5: Calendar links

RT Developers
1

I’m still experiencing the problem where I don’t get any calendar pop-up
(or whatever is supposed to happen) when clicking “Choose a Date” from any
Date field in a ticket. It was reported here:

Clicking Properties on “Choose a Date” shows it is Unknown Protocol and
Address=#.

I have nothing in my rt.log or apache log about this. Any help or
suggestions would be appreciated.

That’s a javascripty link. What browser?

That’s really too bad. I’d really love to hear more about the issue, if
you figure out if it’s a javascript bug or a perl bug or whathaveyou.

The calendar popup works fine here in Mozilla and Konqueror. Just not in
IE6.

It works in firefox 1.5beta for me. It does not work on IE6 on Windows
XP SP2, even with popup blockers disabled. Strangely, the “window
shading” works perfectly in both. Perhaps it is being bitten by some
IE-specific javascript bug in that one script?

Here is the patch for that:

Hi Peter, this patch does not work on our 3.5.5 dev system. In fact, it
entirely eliminates the “Choose a Date” link from all Date fields. Not sure
if that was your intention, and I suppose that is a sort of fix, :wink: but it
won’t do the trick.
