How does it fail? Can you throw together a minimal self-contained example? I use this in a lot of places and it works and as far as I understand there is no reason it shouldn't.
Not only does it work, but we are trying to move towards that being the suggested style, as it generally has superior error-handling characteristics. It would be really nice to get issues with it fixed, and even if this isn't a real problem, document it as a possible "gotcha" so people do not feel uneasy about taking this approach.
So.. got a unit test? :)
I'm not entirely sure how to write a formal unit test that includes the javascript side testing, but I've attached a minimal test case to a ticket at: http://divmod.org/trac/ticket/1704 Basically, it appears that this might be particularly related to key events. My example code compares my nonstandard approach to the officially sanctioned version, for both text fields and buttons. It appears that buttons work properly, but not the text field. -phil
