dialogs plugin issue regarding focus and actions

Here’s the issue I’m seeing.
I have a form where the on-Action handler for some elements submits some information (in this case a log in). The information is validated. If the validation fails, a dialog is shown explaining why (i.e. incorrect password).

If the user hits ‘eneter’ at the dialog to close it, it causes the action to be invoked again - seemingly, the element still has focus so it still can invoke actions. While I am creating a work-around, this seems like unexpected behavior.

This is reproducable:

  1. Create a field
  2. Attach an on action handler method
  3. Use this method code
plugins.dialogs.showInfoDialog();

4)Hit ‘Enter’ to close thee dialog

Interestingly, this doesn’t happen when the trigger element is a button.

Hi sdevlin,

Try to follow it by a “return;” command.

like :

if (something wrong){
   plugins.dialogs.showInfoDialog();
   return;
}
