password reset possible bug
Posted: Mon Sep 15, 2008 12:34 pm
Hi. I was experimenting with password reset today and might have found a bug.
When a user forgets their password, they hit "forgot password" on the account sign in page and enter their email address. Able sends a link to the password reset.
When I type the new password, hit tab, then retype the new password and hit "enter" it takes me to the main shopping page. In this case, I am not logged in and the password change I just did does not take effect.
When I type the new password, hit tab, then retype the new password and move my mouse and click on "Continue", then I am automatically logged into the application and the new password takes effect.
So, the bug here is that hitting enter should produce the same result as clicking on continue. I tried this on both firefox and IE7 with the same result. For me, hitting enter is more natural, and thus this was a very frustrating experience.
Please let me know if I have set up something wrong on my side or if this is something you can fix.
Thanks,
Brian
