Hi,
I came across an undesirable behavior when working with
textarea
s. The problem is that whenever a character is typed in, the caret always moves to the end of the field.This patch fixes the problem by modifying the webfui.plugin.form-values plugin. The code is a bit ugly due to the restriction of plugin facility. Let me know If you know a better way to do it and I'll fix it right away.
I created an example project so that you can see the fix in action. To do this, please checkout my branch https://github.com/ympbyc/webfui/tree/textareaplugin , run the server, and navigate your browser to
localhost:8080/textarea
.Cheers!
