Use of backspace in Notebook #31

Closed martindusinberre closed 4 years ago

martindusinberre commented 5 years ago

Several players noted that when they are inputting in notebook, and then use the backspace button, they lose their entire notebook entry input; and in two cases, using the backspace button also sent them back to the very frontpage of the game. Can we fix this?

I can't reproduce this with google Chrome. Do someone remember on wich browser it was? Estimate: 2 hours

martindusinberre commented 5 years ago

Leyla will look at this and try to reproduce in the first instance. Please don't work on it until she reports back with a comment here.

@lfeine can you please give us some feedback. Otherwise we can't fix it. thanks....

I haven't been able to do a full test yet, however I think this issue might actually be related to #32 , since some browsers have backspace bound to the back button. This would cause issues quite similar to the ones experienced by the users here. It will be fairly difficult to reproduce however, since backspace being bound to this functionality is both dependent on OS and browser (Firefox on Windows has it, Firefox on Linux does not, for instance).

I think it is important to only reproduce the problem with "Several players noted that when they are inputting in notebook, and then use the backspace button, they lose their entire notebook entry input;"

The other one is solved with: https://github.com/uzh/marugoto/issues/32

I'm having trouble reproducing this bug. If anyone remembers any details of when this bug happened, please let me know. Things like:

Browser used
OS used
Page the user was on
Length of user input
Content of user input (was the user inputting any special characters or making a multi-button input?)
Type of keyboard or other input devices

Any sort of information helps.

Other than that, the problem could be user error (pressing cmd + backspace, accidentally highlighting everything etc.), but without more information I really cannot say.

@lfeine OK. For the time being, please leave this. Could you possibly check #22 instead?
