@philw agreed, it should be as in the mocks. Will fix today. Good spot!

:-) (blame Voice-over for this – for once I got my ears tuned enough to be able to listen.)

Good luck fixing it :-) I couldn’t get it working when I did it last week, hence I added it before the textarea and label.

:-(
[sigh].

If it is too complicated to mimic the mock-up markup, could the element be wrapped in a <p> ? It feels so lonely there poor little inline element in that see of blocks…

Yeah, that’s easy. Phil might have to alter the markup and/or CSS to make it continue to exhibit the same inline-block / floaty behaviour, so I’ll leave it to him unless he delegates it back to me!

I’ll do it at some point today, I’m sure there is a way to keep the intended markup.

I don’t think any changes are needed to the CSS, unless I’ve missed something, the <a> will just float its way like it does now.

Mind I still prefer the intended markup – the narrative is just more logical

Cool, thanks. There is a way, it’s just a bit convoluted unless we can find some way to hack inputLabel() in a suitable fashion.

Hmmm, OK, I’m open to suggestions there.

Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.6.0 beta 2 released

phiw13: we went with the (unlisted in my post above) option #5 to fix the tag builder link position: hack inputLabel(). Please try the latest master branch.

Also made the dialog focus default to the close button on initialisation instead of the first link. The Build button might also be a candidate, though it’s not always present so it was simpler to hook into an omni-present widget.

Cheers Stef. I think the close button is the correct tab focus point for dialogs (it’s at the start of the content flow).

Lovely. TY.

Note: your last patch lacks a space between the icon span and the text string – I noted that on github. Fixed already!

Hmm. Not 100% enthusiast with that; on the flip side, given that those tag builder dialogs lacks a “cancel” button, perhaps it is OK. But then again, esc also closes the dialog, wherever the focus is.

Now I notice (but that is not new): you launch the tag builder, you can interact with it from the keyboard. Select something to build a tag (e.g. “Category 1”). The actual tab builder form opens, but the focus is nowhere in the dialog, it returns to the first focusable element of the page (the Texpattern logo).

Can you please create that as an issue on GitHub?
