(Whiteboard: [error])

If an invalid keyword is entered into the keyword field in a search, then the error pages shows all of the words in the field; it should only show the invalid ones.

RFE, no patch. It's hardly worth doing for the small usability increase, as it would probably be a special exception to generic error reporting. Probably. Gerv
Severity: normal → enhancement
Target Milestone: Bugzilla 2.16 → Bugzilla 2.18
Enhancements which don't currently have patches on them which are targetted at 2.18 are being retargetted to 2.20 because we're about to freeze for 2.18. Consideration will be taken for moving items back to 2.18 on a case-by-case basis (but is unlikely for enhancements)
Target Milestone: Bugzilla 2.18 → Bugzilla 2.20
Bugzilla 2.20 feature set is now frozen as of 15 Sept 2004. Anything flagged enhancement that hasn't already landed is being pushed out. If this bug is otherwise ready to land, we'll handle it on a case-by-case basis, please set the blocking2.20 flag to '?' if you think it qualifies.

The error message now states the invalid keyword.

Disregard the last comment. I read the issue as keywords when editing a bug.

I still feel this should be closed. 1) If you enter incorrect keyword values from the advanced search page, it is good enough to just show an empty list of bugs in your results. The dropdown that happens on the query form is a convenience to allow people to see the valid list. They can still type what ever they want. 2) If you enter an invalid keyword in the keywords field when editing a bug, it will complain that the keyword does not exist and shows the first invalid keyword it encounters in the error messsage. As of the latest version in trunk, it does not show the valid keywords entered, only the incorrect one. dkl
