Document Custom HTML Prompt Bug/Fix?

Wiki
1

@peternlewis,

Any objections to changing the title of this thread:
I broke keyboard maestro (Update: I fixed it - please read)

to:
“Bug Report: Custom HTML Prompt with JavaScript onclick”

and updating the Wiki article Custom HTML Prompt Action to note this issue, along with it’s fix?

No objection. the bug is just that the JavaScript calls don’t enforce their parameters to be strings, and that then leads to problems inside Keyboard Maestro when it expects strings to be strings. So its not related to onclick per se.

If we could just briefly reverse the flow of time, it would be tempting to restart the whole history of the web (while no one was looking) with PureScript (rather than JavaScript).

(A whole class of such bugs would evaporate, I think)
