Description

The un-intended behavior in tested web browsers with standard/default settings is that in https://host_name:8443/ordermgr/control/additem , when the operator enters a value it is retained afer the item is added to the cart. In a browser set to normal by today's standard (1024x732) with an "out of the box" setup of ofBiz, the operator has no notification that the item has been added other than the browser's throbber has stopped running. The piece of code in question is a input box generated by additem

<input class="inputBox" size="25" name="add_product_id" value="" type="text">

Some sort of Javascript (ECMAScript) code to reset the field or the form is probably required. A more permanent solution might be to impliment some sort of ajax auto completion rather than just reseting the field with javascript.
