There is currently code so that when I exit the "Resolve this bug as dupe of [ ] field", the radio button for this line gets checked. I unchecked it, and then when back and removed the number just to be sure. Then when I exited it selected the line again. It should only do this when there is something in the field.

Yep... that does the trick. Tested on IE 5.5 (Win2k), Mozilla (recent build, Win2k) and Netscape 6 (Linux). r= jake@acutex.net

This is also a problem with the assignee (see duplicate). Can you please extend the patch?

I think you should reopen the other bug and leave it separate. The assignee is a more complicated field because of having an initial value. (see the comments in the other bug). I can easily extend this patch to not select the radio button if the asignee field is blank, but getting it to not select if it's the original owner will be more difficult.

Oh yeah. I guess it should never be blank since assignees shouldn't be blank. I'll reopen.
