Flyspray - The bug killer!

A bigger solution to the problem and also enhances the advanced search:

A hidden radio button set for

• assigned user (short variable 'dev' used instead of 'ass' )
• opened by
• closed by

Example html code for the assigned user field: (CSS for the toggling behavior similiar to other like keyboards shortcuts not included)

<div style="position: absolute; right: 0px; background: rgb(255, 255, 255) none repeat scroll 0% 0%; padding: 10px; box-shadow: 0px 10px 20px rgb(204, 204, 204);" id="devsearchmode" class="toggle">
  <input type="radio" name="devsm" value="" id="devsm_default">
  <label for="devsm_default">LIKE (default)</label><br>
 
  <input type="radio" name="devsm" value="id" id="devsm_userid">
  <label for="devsm_userid">exact user_id</label><br>
 
  <input type="radio" name="devsm" value="username" id="devsm_username">
  <label for="devsm_username">exact username</label><br>
 
  <input type="radio" name="devsm" value="realname" id="devsm_realname">
  <label for="devsm_realname">exact realname</label><br>
</div>

When the autocompleter popups up and the user selects one of the search hits, the hidden radio button group should choose 'devsearchmode_username' instead of default soft search. (The user wants exact this user eg. peterdd, not peterdd1234 or blablapeterdd)

To solve the 'My assigned tasks' view the url would change from

?do=index&project=1&dev=12345

to

?do=index&project=1&dev=12345&devsm=userid

or

?project=1&mytasks 

(and /proj1/mytasks with htaccess rewrite nice urls enabled)

work on github:

Ahh, dropped that idea above.

I commited a simpler solution now to github master:

• forbid digitonly user_name and real_name at create_user() function
• in search, when parameter opened_by, assigned, or closed_by values are digits, then only search by that user_id, and if it looks like a user_name or real_name, then do a LIKE sql filter.

Better than before I think, but note that searching 'peter' in the opened_by field still would find tasks opened by peter, but also peterdd, 123peter, 'Peter Pan', ...
