Hello,

We are running the latest CE.Net image on the GraphicsMaster. When accessing a javascript page from IE, we note the following. When using a Select (pulldown menu) using the stylus or mouse, it appears that the first item in the list is 'automagically' selected.

Also, when running on a PC, releasing the mouse button leaves the list pulled down. This does not happen on the GM. In fact, even if the mouse button or stylus is held down, the list closes within about 1/10 of a second. It is impossible to scroll down the list using a mouse or the stylus. It is also virtually impossible to make a selection from the list - as it disappears so quickly.

This appears to be a javascript problem because it does NOT occur for the pulldowns accesible, for instance, from the IE title bar.

Thanks for your post, Tom. I agree it looks like a Javascript processing issue. That's part of the code from Microsoft that we don't have any control over. You might check on some of the CE developers forums to see if anyone else has ideas about how to resolve it. Otherwise you might ahve to open a ticket with the Microsoft CE team. Sorry we can't help more on this one!

Turns out it was an issue that could be addressed in our code. We were running a timer loop to update an onscreen clock.
the javascript:
document.getElementById("DisplayTime").innerHTML = theTime;
seems to trigger the pulldown to do a select and then to close - as you watch!
It, of course doesn't do that on Win 2k or XP or even 98.
