            Bug ID: 130461
           Summary: Bugzilla has a broken javascript that prevents logging
                    new bugs
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: adam.m.s.martin+libreoffice at gmail.com

Description:
Try logging a bug with javascript disabled.

This bugzilla install gives an incorrect error message.

If you follow the instructions given, you CANNOT log any bugs, even if you
later enable javascript.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Disavble javascript
2.Attempt to log a bug
3.Hit Submit Bug Report button
4.The website incorrectly blocks you

5.Enabling javascript and trying again has NO EFFECT

Actual Results:
The page submits, then redirects to a fake error message:

" You must select/enter a version.

Please press Back and try again."

If you go Back and confirm the version was already selected, it still refuses
to accept the bug.

If you go Back, enable javascript, and try again ... you get the same incorrect
error message.

If you go Back, enable javascript, and re-select the version that was already
selected ... you get the same incorrect error message.

Expected Results:
If Javascript is required, the error message should say "Error: javascript
disabled".

ADDITIONALLY: the javascript needs to be replaced with javascript that works
correctly, since the current script still fails even after javascript is
enabled.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
The eventual workaround was to do:

1. Write a bug report
2. Submit, and be refused
3. Go back
4. Enable Javascript
5. Select a WRONG version
6. Select the CORRECT version
7. Submit, and finally the bug submits as expected
