Subject: [sup-devel] [PATCH] fix textfield truncation
Date: Thu, 21 Jan 2010 23:46:40 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1264146400-2101-1-git-send-email-rlane@club.cc.cmu.edu> (raw)

Long query strings (for example) are (for some people) silently truncated.
Other people have seen large amounts of whitespace inserted at word boundaries.
These issues are caused by using a multiline text field. This patch uses a
single-line dynamically growable textfield instead. It also disables the
field-blanking misfeature.
