[Edbrowse-dev] Problem selecting an item from a list

[Chuck Hallenbeck]

Hi folks,

Here's one perhaps only Karl and I might notice: With the current 3.6.1+,
it is no longer possible to select a story category at the following
site. At first a category seems to have been selected, but when then
activating <Go> to commence the search, the problem is discovered and
prevents the search from taking place.

edbrowse "http://search.literotica.com/search.php?type=story"

I am glad to help if I can.

Chuck

As often happens, it works properly if you disable js.

The problem here is they started including breakspace in their options.
When js runs, the page is rescanned and rebrowse,
and breakspace turns into space, which collapses as whitespace.
This is now illustrated by  www.eklhad.net/jf
The red choice in the colors has breakspaces in it.

This breakspace whitespace conversion makes sense everywhere else on the page, but not here.
I will need to add special code to turn this off when inside an input field.
Not sure at the moment if this is easy or somewhat involvved.
