Tony Filing this report to test the issue.
Well, this report didn't fail. Tony, do you mind telling what you did, against which component you tried to file a report and at what time?

Duh, My bad everyone.. My apologies, although there is something utterly trivial in lodging the bug which should be fixed. Late at night, lodged the bug, got a message at bottom of screen saying Thankyou etc. See attached screen shot. Real cause: I'd forgotten to put an entry in the Summary as a title. I looked only at the bottom line of attached screenshot, saying: That's it. Thanks very much..... and completely missed the fact that the cursor had jumped back to the empty Summary field. Ah well. Probably the script behind this should be a bit smarter, to offsetfor my stupidity, and not thank me for finishing when essential fields are empty - demostrated in the attached pic. Guess I'm so used to web forms which won't progress if data is incomplete. Very grateful for the prompt response from you all. Regards, Tony
Created attachment 13332 [details] screenshot showing OP's mistake! Screenshot showing my error in not completing form at bug submission
Could probably fix a: the wrong messwage at bottom b: the non-blinking cursor in empty field. Yes, field is highlighted in yellow but did I scan back up the form when told it was successful.... Please close bug and forget I ever mentioned it. Regards, Tony
(In reply to Tony Blackwell from comment #5) > Could probably fix > a: the wrong messwage at bottom The message at the bottom is hardcoded. It just thanks the user for filling a new bug report, but in no way it is a confirmation message that the bug report has been submitted. > b: the non-blinking cursor in empty field. Yes, field is highlighted in > yellow but did I scan back up the form when told it was successful.... The yellow color only means that the field is mandatory. If you leave this field empty, you should see a popup asking you to write some text in the summary field. > Please close bug and forget I ever mentioned it. OK :)
