errors when immediately editing a question

[moui72]

Tested with Windows 10 / Chrome 60+ http://openlabdev.org/webwork-playground/#:problemId=local/ComplexFractions-Method2/single-binomial-easy.pg:questionId=11081

When logged in as faculty, if I attempt to immediately edit a question I have just asked, I get errors.

The first time I edit, the editable fields appear as expected but they are empty. I get a javascript error on every keypress when typing in the editable fields. See below.

If I cancel my edit and then try to edit again, the editable fields disappear.

If I enter text and save, the text is updated as expected. The new text persists through reloads.

I would guess this is related to #87

JS Error (gets thrown on every keypress in the editable boxes)

Note that refreshing the page returns all behavior to normal

Thanks for the detailed report! Editable fields require a separate way of storing data (so that the "cancel" button works), and I was neglecting to set that up properly after a new question is posted. This should now be fixed.

yep!
