Javascript error blocks access to task details in Internet Explorer

[Matthias Ronge]

In the “Process details” view you cannot inspect the task details in Internet Explorer. When you click on the icon in the “Activity” column nothing happens. Expanding the task in the “List of tasks” by clicking the “+” icon aside its title doesn’t work either.

Maybe the following Javascript error is the cause:

SCRIPT5007: Für die Eigenschaft "value" kann kein Wert festgelegt werden: Das Objekt ist Null oder undefiniert
ProzessverwaltungAlle.jsf, Zeile 740 Zeichen 3

This references to line two of “function clearFormHiddenParams_proceditform(currFormName)”: f.elements['proceditform:_idcl'].value='';

Confirm: doesn't work in IE9 (64 Bit)

[Henning Gerhardt (henning-gerhardt)]

Could I confirm to with IE8 (32bit).

The JavaScript code looks for me like generated by used framework.

This also means that one cannot add any task into a new process template… ☹

Confirm: Bug in framework. See: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-7135

Is this really a Richfaces bug? The "tree" element is not used whatsoever.

[Matthias Ronge (matthias-ronge)]

The bug linked here is merely to prove that the problematic javascript code originates from the framework. However, I cannot screen out by now that we don’t have some outside specification usage of the framework in our code which might be the root cause.
