hidden text field in RC V1881

Hello
Joomla version : J.3.2.3
FC version : RC V1881

In the type or article I have 2 hidden fields.In these fields I have set a div style to display background and border.

these fields contains :

- the first in field description of the template displayed in the prefix :
- the last in field description of the template displayed in the suffix :
Theses fields are hidden, required. The default value is . This default value is displayed if the field is empty.

Until V1880 no problem, I got a border around the concatenation of all valued of description zone.

In the V1881, in the first field the prefix/default value is followed by "< /div>" which I think, has been automatically added. So the div is closed immediatly.

Is the added '< / div> a bug or a necessity ?

In my case adding a < / div> is not a problem. I have suppressed it with 'Rereplacer'.

I just wanted to understand why this change in the V1881.

best regards

Hello

so you have 2 custom text fields, and you are adding their values in the prefix and suffix parameter of the description field



-- and the field value replacement feature on the prefix suffix is no longer working?

is the above you issue that you describe




-- regardless of the above since the value of these hidden text fields do not change per item, using field value replacement feature should be avoided since in category view it can cost a little, ok cost will be quite small but anyway why do it if not needed,

(of course fixing field value replacement feature in prefix/suffix, if broken will be done)

hello

It's not exactly what I wanted to describe.

My problem : display a border around the description field content.

To do that I have created 2 hidden fields :
- top field : containing the <div style="...">. The div text is entered in the prefix/suffix zone
- bottom field : containinge the </div>. '</div> is entered in prefix/suffix zone.

I always create the hidden fields with this parameters :

- field hidden in all cases.
- the field is mandatory and mono value
- the default value is 'default value displayed if the field is empty'. We need to enter something in the default value. If not, the value is not displayed in the article. Generally I enter '&nbsp;'

Until RC V1880 it was working great.

On RC V1881, a '</div>' is automatically added at the end of the 'top field'. So my border is closed directly and there is no border on the description zone.

I have found a solution using Rereplacer :
- I give a specific value in the default value : 'topfield'. In the article I get topfield</div>.

With Rereplacer I replace topfield</div> by a empty character chain. So the additionnal </div> is deleted and the description zone is bordered.


I just wanted to know why an additional '<div>' is displayed.

If you have a better solution I will use it.

Just I don't want to modify the template source (I could have added the <div style="">... </div> in the template source.
I prefer when it's possible keeping the template source as given by default.

best regards

Michel
