Dropdown menus submit form

[diegonc]

Dropdown menus in the toolbar are implemented as button tags but have no type property. The default value for that property is submit which means each time one toolbar menu is opened the form containing the materialnote editor is submitted.

Please add type="button" to the attribute list of buttons. Otherwise, the editor is not very useful when insede a form element.

I'm working with the Meteor package, inside an autoform form, but that should not be relevant.

Hi,

workaround for me (prevent every dropdown to submit)

in the Template.xxx.onRendered : // all i are buttons ... $("i").attr("type", "button").click(function(e) { e.preventDefault() });

and in Template.xxx.events :

'click .note-editor * ' : function(e) { e.preventDefault() ; return ; }

AbdelMounhim, the type attribute makes no sense in the context of i HTML elements.

What I temporarily did is:

$(".note-editor")
  .find("button")
  .attr("type", "button");
