Thanks for reporting this Dietmar. Did you test this in other browsers?

Hi Mary.
I tested this in FF, IE, SAF, CHR - always with the same result.
In Moodle 2.6 we do not have problems at this point!
I have no idea!

@Dietmar, I found what the problem is by a process of elimination. Both those themes are similar in that you cannot dock blocks in them, so are both missing class="block-region" from <div id="region-pre"> & <div id="region-post">.

Adding the block-region class makes it work as it should, which is odd, but understandable when I was telling Andrew Nicols about this earlier today in DEV chat. Apparently these 'regions' are causing problems generally in themes, so looks like we may need to add something like $THEME->regions = array(); similar to how layouts are listed in config.php.

Anyway I shall be fixing this BUG later today.

Cheers
Mary

Hmmm.

Mary,

I changed

<div id="region-pre/post">

to

<div id="region-pre/post" class="block-region">

as suggested in formfactor and tested with FF+Moodle25. But: the file upload still doesn't work.

And: After eleminating the class block-region from brick the file upload is still working?

More confusing: File upload works with Moolde26 although the class block-region is missing too!?

Do we need more tests?

D.

OK...let me try again.

I was testing in Moodle 2.6 and nothing worked until I added the block-region class.

Mary, I made some new tests - still with confusing results .

I took a brandnew 2.6dev (Build: 20130621) via git. After adding the class block-region to the ids region-pre and region-post file upload with FF and formfactor works fine ! So, you are right, your idea really works for 2.6.

Unfortunately the same procedure in a brandnew 2.5+ (Build: 20130621) failed with formfactor and boxxie on my system.

On the other hand: File upload with 2.5 and brick works fine! After eliminating class block-region: failure! That's a good result too!

Somehow crazy, isn't it?

One question: How can I highlight code-snippets here?

Sorry Mary,
after correcting some typos (not my day!!) e v e r y t h i n g works fine when adding class block-region to the regions in 2.5.

Fixed!
Sorry again. I better finish my work for today.

I thoght that must have been the problem...but did not like to say as I was not sure what is casuing the problem. Now you have got it working then all is OK and I can fix the 'BUG'.

As for highlighting code here. If you look at the bottom of this comments text editor box you should see a blue icon that looks like a computer screen (preview) and next to it is a yellow ? (help) icon. If you click that it gives you a list of tags you can use to display text code whatever.

But to add code here I use the code tag like this:

{code}
<div id="region-pre" class="block-region">
    ...
    ...
    ...
</div>
{code}

Thanks Mary - for these hints and your patience .
I will report now your solution in the german forum.
Dietmar

das ist gut ja? danke

Integrated (23, 24, 25 & master), thanks!

PS: Please, don't mix bug fixes and coding style/whitespace fixes in the same commit, it makes things really harder to review. Use a separate commit and all we will love you (more!). TIA!

I am very sorry about the white-space clean-up but this was not my intention. I saw them first after I pushed to origin. So I deleted the original branches and started over again only to get the same result, so it must be my Text Editor picking up old white space and stuff left behind at some point over the years. Patrick Malley used a MAC so may be that. I recall John Stabinger getting told off by you or Sam because of all the tabs and white space he had generated in his code.

Thanks guys, tested and works perfectly.
